Hi guys happy weekend! Up for a walk, breakfast then in to train hams glutes and delts. My weight was LOW today and has trickled down as the week has progressed. Frustrating but rest, an offplan meal and perhaps a little more food over next week will be what I need to keep things ticking along. Enjoyed a lovely birthday meal with family this evening. Lots of chatting and I’m finally ready for bed

Hiya John, I train after one meal too and feel very similar when I have too big of a pre meal. This is totally fine. Seeing as you get meals in after training and throughout the day, that routine is absolutely fine. It sounds like you’re prioritising good digestion and performance. Nice 👍🏼

Hi guys happy Friday. Up for a lovely but very chilly sunny walk this morning, breakfast then straight into check ins and work. In for legs today. Yesterday I was fairly low energy and today through training I was struggling to recover between sets. Turns out I got my period so the past few days make a lot of sense 😂 back home to carry on for the day and finally an evening of chill.

I personally weigh all my food raw as I find it more accurate and means I can vary cooking method. E.g. a potato cut into chips and air fried will weigh less than potato boiled due to water content. If it’s weighed out raw you can prepare it how you like! For proteins I also weigh them raw. If you’re consistent with cooking method you can likely weigh it cooked as Adam mentioned

Hiya Lucas, are you able to link any videos of you deadlifting? This would greatly help alongside with the above info

I couldn’t agree more with the guys above! I know a lot of people might say this but you’re super young and just getting started. You’re doing fantastic so far so honestly I don’t see the need for anything. Keep on doing what you’re doing for now and imo for the next at LEAST 5+ years

Hi guys rest day for me after two days training. Up for a walk this morning, breakfast and work/check ins/training analysis. Then spent late afternoon with my sisters doing pumpkin activities. Cute and fun. Nice to catch up without them doing manual labour on my stand! Back home now and I feel pretty tired. I’m around a week pre period and I feel wiped. Ready for bed

Hiya dimitri, I agree with a lot of the above! Steps are legitimate but finding the right balance for your goals, lifestyle, work and time is what I usually think of when suggesting a step goal. I do agree with the fact that your steps are pretty high. I think what you and the others have suggested about adjusting steps/kcals. Having the right balance for you is the goal

Hi guys! LONG day today catching up. Editing, check ins, training hams glutes and delts, checking up on my grandma and a very quick food shop. Doesn’t sound like much but everything requires time! Back at it tomorrow. After coming back from the yoga show, I was down 1.5kg even after staying on top of meals, hydration and sleep. It took it out of me more than I expected. This week I expect bodyweight will be back in a normal spot. Visuals still really good so the build continues!

Hi guys happy Monday. I do feel pretty smashed after the past couple days. More mentally but a little physically. Up for a wet and windy walk to the postbox to post off orders, breakfast then straight into check ins and work. Off to train quads and glutes and things just felt hard, the gym was busy and so the order of my session was a little different but we got there in the end. Back home to continue work and as usual, things that need to be done will have to bleed into tomorrow! Ready for bed

I agree with Alison’s notes!
If 5 meals suit you continue on.

Hi guys! It’s been a busy weekend and I can’t lie I’m wiped. Final day at the MAD stand and it was considerably busier than Saturday and Friday. Lots of chatting, pretty much standing and on my feet straight for 8 hours. The drive home wasn’t too bad but I’m just so ready to not be standing and preferably to be lying down. So ready for bed and ready to start my usual routine next week. I’ve had a lot of fun!
