Good leg session, only 3 sessions this week , just to manage fatigue but they were all tremendous

I’m going to run eod training now for a bit , which knocks my frequency down from 5 to 6 sleeps , but needs must as I’m at all time strength as getting to 290 + now is about fatigue management and staying in the fight , as trust me, this part is so damn hard

Will wait for Stefan to give the nod on food adjustments

The only thing that will cut this phase short is sleep apnea , as then no matter what you do, recovery is not there and doesn’t get there until lighter and can breath again

morning Jordan, if you get a spare mo would love to see current food situation 🙂

[Liam]

Has your diet changed at all since starting this log adam or still very similar ?

I would also be keen to see your current diet if you find the time to post it 🙂

[Liam]

I like Flex Lewis’s podcast “Straight Outta the Lair” & Jay Cutlers podcast aside from whats been mentioned already

I really enjoy Dan McNab, Johnnie Reid and Dean Lesiak’s podcast as well, but that one is definitely in the entertaining category and not the informative category

[Liam]

Hey Joe, how do you travel with gear? I Always ask me how the pros do this 😀 Have a good time and enjoy it!

Literally put it in My suitcase bro – never once has a suitcase of mine (checked In baggage this is) been checked. And I travel quite a lot haha[/quote]

Hi Joe mate, I think I saw on your IG story that you had your bag searched when you landed for drugs, did they find ur gear, and did they care or were they more looking for more “recreational drugs”?

Cheers

Recovery day today.

Morning walk followed by massage mainly around my trap and shoulder freeing up some tight muscles then a sauna session in the afternoon.

I’ve got my WSM medical tomorrow with blood tests and ECG so decided not to do the intervals on the wattbike until later in the week.

I’ve also got a new spin bike arriving tomorrow which is mainly for the Mrs but it has a weight capacity that can take me so I’ll move my bike sessions from the wattbike to this new Technogym bike.

Hi Adam! Just a quick one, are the blood tests and ECG just to ensure that you are fit to compete for WSM? Or are they looking for something specific?

Thanks

[Liam]

Weight today – 231 – quite a big jump since home but expected given the drastic changes from what I was doing.

High day today which is the same as the last one – 6k cals and carbs at 1000g or there abouts – I am behind with meals again due to falling asleep post legs so trying to catch up.

Legs was the same as last week and just as brutal. -I made some slight changes to help my lower back.

I was totally ruined post session.

Extensions – 5 sets of 20 reps
pendulum – 4 sets of 20 reps
Leg press – done with a 4 second negative and 3 second positive – 20/15/12/10/8
lunges – 3 sets to failure

Seated ham curls – done with a 2 second pause in contraction and 4 second negative – x 12, x 12, x 8f with a drop set
Lay leg curls – 3 x 15 reps with a 2 second pause in contraction.
Adductor – 3 x 20 reps

Totally dead

How do you feel with that rate of gain Hilly, being +/- 10lbs up in roughly 2 weeks? Also with all the new training, how are you enjoying AJ’s plan so far?

[Liam]

Today was a medium day meal plan – 5750kcal, 503p, 646c, 127f

1 – beef/eggs/COR/nut butter/omega pro

2 – chicken/rice/coconut oil/banana – pre gym

Intra -Trainedbyjp EAA 25g and 30g performance fuel with creatine and taurine – inject L car pre gym

PWO – 25g EAA, 1 scoop Vegan, HMB, 100g carbs from COR

4 – lamb/cooked jasmine rice – this was in a restaurant for my birthday with charl and Arilena

5 – chicken/rice/Mac oil/saurkraut

6 – beef/eggs/jasmine rice

7 – shake during the night – Trainedbyjp vegan whey and free from oats – not sure if these are going to sit right but he wants me to try so try I will.

More beef than I would usually eat again due to digestion but he has recommend some digestion things that he feels may help and if not we shall change things

thats a tonne of food! what were you eating roughly right before you pulled the plug on the diet and began working with AJ? flicked through ur log and saw you were on 4k td and 3000-3300 rd on 8th feb, what did diet end at?

Cheers

[Liam]

Dean that’s awful mate I’m
Sorry to hear that , I will be totally honest I was one these twats that was just like, oh it’s just a cold . I defo take that back now as I have a feeling I will be coughing for bloody ages.

Another question for people , for
Those vaccinated that have caught it after , how much has it messed you up still?

I’m not vaccinated , not sure if I regret that decision or not now tbh

Hey Jordan, I had it after being double vaxxed, didn’t even know I had it, only took a test as my mates went down with it. Developed a slight sore throat and that was it.

Hope you recover quick mate, from those I have talked to who’ve suffered with it, rest was key to pulling away from persistent symptoms.

Cheers 🙂

Lean beef mince

JP whey iso pro

Carbs:

Jasmine rice

Cream of rice

Fats:

Nut butter

Almonds

Micronutrients:

Veggie might

I had 2 online bodybuilding posing clients this morning. Pretty chilled day with Kerry as we’re away so that’s been good.

Food isn’t anywhere as high as I’d expect for someone your size.
Do you find you don’t really need to push the food to make decent gains ?[/quote]

Mate what’re you talking about… Marc was eating 6100kcal+ on TD prior to pulling food back… thats a shit tonne of food even at 300lb, you try eating that day in day out lmao

[Liam]

We took covid tests just because we have some in the house as had to have negative tests before going to the rugby …. We are both positive , however today is the day you don’t have to self isolate lol, we will still stay in the house though as again don’t want to give this to anyone

Corinne I think is actually a little worse than me bless her , so now I’m not sure if we smashed ourselves last week with double days or just got unlucky and got covid hahah

Sorry to hear this, hope you both recover quickly. COVID for me was a slight sore throat for 1.5-2 days, fingers crossed you both have similar experiences 🙂
