I agree with the guys above and particularly Kam. I’d be looking at all the other surrounding info
– diet
– sleep + recovery
– training
– stress management and lifestyle
– bloods
– body comp
– hydrationI’m likely missing some things here too but I’d look at these before even considering any other use of supplementation.
Let us know a little more about the above if possible.Instagram - lulubellelifts

Hi guys happy Wednesday! Usual routine up for a walk, breakfast, work and check ins then in for hams and glutes. Really happy with today’s session. Maintained load across the board. I didn’t feel super duper funky fresh but training maintained all the same. Headed over to my grandmas to have a chat and see how she’s doing. Back home after to continue with work. I am exhausted this evening. A lot of people getting sick in my gym, clients included and so I’m doing my absolute best to NOT get sick considering I’ve had a bad run to start the year!

Hi guys. Really busy day today. Up super early to drive my partner to the hospital for a procedure. All meals ready to go just in case. Sat and did training analysis and work while I waited. Back home in the afternoon to continue with checking and editing. Steps not hit today and it’s honestly because I chose to power through working rather than taking a break for a walk. It is what it is for today. Meal prep and dinner made this evening. Very tired as I was up early and didn’t sleep great. Ready for bed

Hi guys happy Monday! Usual morning routine! Up for a walk, breakfast and straight in to work! In for quads and glutes today and man I had an amazing session. Really shockingly strong, recovery between sets was great, NO SI/groin issues. Happy days indeed. back home to continue with work and calls. Packed a few orders for MAD and posted them off just before the cut off for the day. Quick food shop and meal prep for tomorrow. I’m so ready for bed

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 tomorrowInstagram - lulubellelifts

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
