Hello guys, VERY busy day today. Up early for our flight and then spent the day with family. Extremely tired so very much ready for a proper night sleep

Hi guys very late one today. Rest day spent working, checking on my lovely grandma and packing/preparing before we leave for Italy tomorrow. A little overwhelmed as the day has massively gotten away from me but I’ll survive!

Hiya Tidus, Clare prompts some really good questions which will be helpful to help understand what the cause might be. How’s recovery and training like right now? Are you feeling a little beat up or all good?

Hi guys. Another busy day today! Up for usual routine and in for quads and glutes today. It’s very clear that my sessions aren’t as good when I don’t have a rest day between. I feel under recovered. Still get everything done but I defo notice a change in my ability to perform. A chiro visit today too. All really good. Almost no SI pain for a while now which is amazing. Training appropriately, prioritising recovery and bodywork is absolutely paying off

What days do you consistently have available in your week? Are your shift patterns very different week to week/day to day? I’d opt for 4 as if your time is limited this might be easier to be consistent with. Let us know and we can give further advice.

Hi guys, in for hams glutes and delts today. I’ll be off to Italy later this week and so I’ll be training back to back today and tomorrow and so training has been adjusted a smidge. For the most part today was hams, glutes and delts. Tomorrow will be quads and glutes. Great session today, some small load increases and overall all movements felt GREAT.

Hi guys happy Sunday! Rest day for me I slept like I was DEAD. Amazing. Chill day of work + chores today getting set up for the week. Currently playing a bit of ghost of Tsushima before my final meal and bed! Really enjoying the game so far, I know I’m seriously late to the hype but I think it’s really pretty and has some really nice themes.

Couldn’t agree more with what Clare mentioned. A lot of things that seems like general health and personal care truly play big roles in helping your immune system. Interested in seeing your response 👍🏼

Hi guys! Spent the day at a renaissance fair today. The Loxwood joust! It was really fun, ate some cool medieval food, spent a lot of time in the sun and defo feel a bit dehydrated and tired. Back home after to continue with a bit of work and now ready for bed!

Fresh French baguette from a local bakery sounds lovely. I second what the guys have said above. If you digest it well, you enjoy it and have a good variety in your diet on the whole, there’s no need to change a thing 👍🏼

Hi guys, today was a scheduled rest day however I have a busy weekend and so opted to try training today as I woke up feeling good, slept really well and so gave it a shot. DEFO not recovered and as soon as I got stuck into my session I could feel it and so back to back training days defo need to be adjusted or just not done at all. Still got a pretty good quad and glute session in but managed my expectations accordingly. This isn’t something I’ll do regularly. After switching to one on one off I feel a noticable difference after having proper rest.

Hi guys, happy Thursday! Busy day of check ins and work alongside training hams glutes and delts. Great session, setting myself up nicely for load progressions somewhere in the future but for now moving really well, no SI flare ups for a little while which has been amazing. A little ghost of Tsushima this evening and now ready for bed

Hi guys happy Wednesday! Up for a walk as usual then another day of laptop work, check ins and client work (for fade) visited my lovely grandma who absolutely loved a helping of oat so creamy! Back home after to continue work for the day, short walk in the evening and a bit of PlayStation. Doing a much better job of winding down the day compared to majority of June/july

Make the cream of rice so it’s SUPER thick like genuinely a paste. Only add a little water to do this but make sure the water you use it super hot and freshly boiled! I make my CoR like this every single time. If you make the CoR too thin and then add the whey it’ll defo be a thinner consistency overall. Although, I’ve only ever eaten Tbjp CoR and because it’s genuinely such a fine power it’s mixes really well so that could defo be the difference in ease of making it this way!
