Hey mate, as Jordan said it doesn’t really matter too much but I don’t like to wait too long as I like to get on with the rest of the workout so I usually perform the stretch pretty much straight after the last set of that muscle. I usually hold for 1-2 mins.

Good morning guys, had a busy morning yesterday but a chilled afternoon evening. Up early today for a fasted walking. Hoping to get in the gym this afternoon and do some rehab work for my back.

Hey buddy! Personally I feel my upper back rows best with a wide grip flaring my elbows outwards without retracting my scapula. For lower lat rows I’ll retract my scapula and tuck my elbows in close to the body.

Morning guys! Had a busy day travelling yesterday! Got back in the late afternoon and done a food shop! Chilled in the evening had dinner and watched the tv! Still need to rest my back so no gym or tennis at the moment! Up early today for a fasted walk on the road.

Hey buddy, as Jordan has mentioned the training on prep doesn’t usually change much to be honest. Sometimes I’ll add in more volume slowly over the duration of the prep as a way of increasing daily expenditure and definitely when super lean I would be careful pushing to and beyond failure has Jordan also mentioned!

Hi Eli, I’d be quite interested to know what your nutrition is like inbetween those sessions. Maybe your not eating enough of your food inbetween the sessions. Being in a deficit won’t help also. What’s your sleep like? I think it’s definitely possible to recover from training like this you may just need to adjust some things!

Hey guys, drove out to the mountains yesterday with family which was amazing. So beautiful out there! Had lunch, meat and cheese which was local and fresh. Drove back into town to see some more family then had a huge dinner with all the family in the evening at an amazing pizza restaurant! Travelling to Salerno today!

Hi Hunter, have you noticed a difference in strength between the pecs? You can test this by using a machine press. If there is no difference in strength at all then potentially might not be a lot you can do apart from trying to improve the mind muscle connection you have with that pec. There couple potentially be something breaking down in your form on one side of your body which your not noticing which is causing the pec to not fully take the load. Now if there is a difference in strength then I would prioritise using movements such as dumbell presses and machine presses as you can end your set when your pec fails. Then start to progress your lifts with both pecs at the same time. I would avoid barbell and smith machine presses as you can’t always control the equality of the load.

Hey guys, landed in Salerno yesterday late evening as my flight was slightly delayed. My uncle picked me up and took me to see my family in Avellino. Had an amazing dinner then went to sleep. Had a little lay in this morning then got up and had breakfast and heading to atripalda to see more family!

Hey Max, admittedly not the most experience with upper lower workouts having never done one myself, this format you have looks pretty good. I do like the exercise selection. Is there a reason that you start with chest, switch to back, then move onto Delts then arms? If I was going to do an upper workout I would likely do all my push style movements first then move onto the pulling style movements. Personally I would keep your arm workouts in your upper days and not your lower days but again I’m not super experienced with U/L workouts so hopefully the rest of the team can clarify for the both of us! One last thing, I would add a split let movement to your lower days, like lunges/ Bulgarian split squats. Potentially move your heavy RDL sets to lower 1 and keep your heavy hack squats in lower 2 just so that your not overloading your lower back too much in the same session!

Hey guys, had a good rehab session in the morning then went off to work. Worked until the afternoon then chilled at home in the evening. Bored to be honest, not being able to play tennis or train is getting to me already and it’s only been a week since the procedure. Flying out to Italy today to spend some time with family, should give me a few days of occupying my thoughts! Going to be a tough few months mentally for sure.

Hey buddy! If your nutrition is in order you would definitely benefit from our supplements such as unwind, nmn, dream sleep. These will all hugely benefit your recovery in their own way. In terms of natural test boosters our NED stack would be perfect as you’ll get Natural Physique supplement, Turk & Trib and Natural progress while saving yourself some money also! Other supplements than could also be beneficial are peak hydration, cure coming, omega Pharma pro. All of these will play they’re part in aiding your recovery. Also the use of a super high quality protein such as iso pro would be a benefit compared to some whey concentrate/ blend products.
