    Hi guys happy Sunday! Up for a walk, breakfast and then a LOT of laptop work. I feel like I’ve been staring at my laptop screen intensely for days now… because I have. Check ins, setting everyone up for the week, training analysis and new clients onboarding. Headed over to my lovely grandmothers for Mother’s Day and enjoyed the evening there!

    Hiya Josh, the guys above have covered this well. I agree with everything above. I particularly like what james mentioned about personal preference / applying lower rep ranges for specific movements vs higher for others due to the nature of the movement as well as preference.

    Hi guys happy Saturday. Defo lower energy today but likely because of where I’m at in my cycle. Up for a walk, breakfast, work and then in for hams and glutes. Back home after to continue with check ins and work before popping out to get some Mother’s Day bits for my mum and grandmother tomorrow. Very ready for bed as concentration has been off all day.

    Hi guys happy Friday! Fairly busy day today. Up for a walk as usual, breakfast and then straight into laptop work. My deadline has been extended to Monday which honestly is a blessing. In for quads and glutes. I’ve dropped smith squats for the time being as it’s really aggravating my SI and I’m not in a position where I can progress the movement because of it. So it’s out! Swapped in for a quad focused split squat. Great session! Maintained load for all movements and squeezed out another rep here and there so I’m chuffed! Back home to continue client work and editing before calling it a night!

    Hiya Kian, I completely agree with the guys above. I’m glad you’ve come to terms with the fact that continually trying to diet is not productive. Having a coach take you through different phases can help you realise this and experience the process properly. I think you should absolutely consider speaking to a professional/therapist that can help you with your mental health. It will help you massively.

    Hi guys happy Thursday. BIG laptop day today. Rest day for me as well which means I managed to get quite a bit sorted! Up for a walk, breakfast, check ins, training analysis and then a lot of editing this afternoon/evening. I did also manage to squeeze in some meal
    Prep so tomorrow’s food is all good to go as I have a deadline to hand over drafts that I’m actually not yet finished with… we’ll make it work! Also started my cycle today so while I’ve physically not been doing much I am exhausted. Ready for bed and for training tomorrow

    Hi guys happy Wednesday! Up and out for a walk, breakfast, check ins and work and then in for hams and glutes. A few Lovely progressions! RDLs felt better than they have in a long long time! SI Held up very nicely! Popped over to see my lovely grandmother then back home to continue work for the day. Went out for the first time on the back of a motorbike and it was super fun. Terrifying but fun. Absolutely got suited up head to toe. I’m exhausted and ready for bed!

    Hi guys happy Tuesday. Up for a walk, breakfast and work. Check ins, training analysis etc. saw my chiro in the afternoon. My SI/hips have actually been feeling pretty good so fingers crossed things stay like that. Back home to continue on with client calls and work before wrapping up for the night

    Hi guys happy Monday! Up for a walk, breakfast, check ins and work. Then in for quads and glutes! Really good session. The pendulum at my gym is down and out unfortunately so had to swap compounds to a hack. Still had a great session. Back home to continue check ins and editing. Very much ready to chill for the day now

    Hello hello guys happy Sunday. My Sundays have started to look more like a Monday. Rest day today for me, up for a walk, breakfast, check ins and client work, meal prep and house chores. Nothing special or groovy just the usual. Bodyweight is seemingly FINALLY creeping back up after being so ill a couple weeks ago. In for quads and glutes tomorrow and very much ready for bed.

    To echo Ben and Hilly, I think if you’re enjoying it, able to make great progress and it suits your schedule there’s no need to change anything there. I personally train after 1 meal and have for the past couple years and I’ve found it suits me well 👍🏼

    Hi guys happy Saturday. Had a bit of a lie in today, out for a walk, work and then in for hams, glutes and delts. GREAT session! Some progressions here and there so I’ll take it! Back home after for check ins, meals and wrapping up work for the day 👍🏼

    Great work with the diet. Know that usually the best push up phases/builds are executed very similarly to a diet phase. Keep your structure and routine and train hard in the gym and focus on progressions. Allow bodyweight to come up slowly. Assess visuals before making any changes to food. This can be a really productive 20 weeks if you stick to it with the same level of execution as the diet 👍🏼

    Hi guys busy day! Up early to drive to a shoot at a new clinic. Basically a full content day. Had all my meals packed and ready last night. A long day standing and shooting. My back is not super duper funky fresh after holding a camera all day. Drove back, backed up footage and caught up with clients and now SO ready for bed!
