Hi guys happy Friday! Rest day for me and I feel like I need it. Hip has been a bit shit today. Not terrible but defo not 100% a lot of editing today, emails and client work which naturally had me sitting and aggravating my hip. Moved over to standing for some of my work and it helped a bit. Food shop in the evening and now ready for bed

Hiya Rion,

I totally agree with Clare. Well done on successfully dieting. I think shifting your focus now to building would be a great idea. Increase food slowly, train hard and enjoy the process! If you’re in a good spot now bodyfat-wise (sounds like it), you’ll have the opportunity to spend lots of time building and can make some really great progress. If you have any other questions, drop us a message

Hi guys! Happy Thursday! Up for a walk before the torrential rain (again) work and breakfast and then in for hams and glutes. An okaaaay session. Maintained load and reps for most and sensation was great for a lot of movements. Most of the time sessions feel like this, nothing special but nothing bad. Just doing the work! Back home to continue with check ins for the day. All meals consumed, steps hit and ready for bed! Another day ticked off!

Hi guys happy Wednesday! Rest day for me today, up for a walk as usual before the torrential rain and storms! My hip,”/back felt off for the first half of the day, initially felt a lot better after the walk in the morning which defo indicates it’s familiar purely because movement helps. As the day has gone on it has improved. Another day of work, editing, check ins and calls. Broke up the day visiting my lovely grandmother for tea and a chat and then a family birthday this evening. Ready for bed.

Hi guys happy Tuesday. Training day for me today and so usual morning routine, check ins and work before heading in for legs. Great session with all movements maintained in regard to load and reps but I will say I am performing some movements miles better than a couple months ago. Win win. Back home to continue check ins and editing. Spend the rest of the day sitting and now unfortunately my hip is giving me shit. Hopefully a good night sleep will help decompress

Hiya Andrew, I completely agree with the guys above. Fasted or non fasted as long as you keep that level of activity/steps in at any time of the day you’re good. I do a portion of my steps fasted purely because that’s how I start my day. If I have a very busy morning I may skip that walk in the morning and go for a walk at the back end of the day instead. Totally fine!

Hi guys happy Monday! Up for my usual morning routine. Rest day today for me. Check ins, training analysis and then editing in the afternoon. Have been sat down/standing at my laptop for most of the day so likely a short walk this evening, my final meal and then bed!

Hi K I agree massively with Kuba. 5 years isn’t long at all. If you’re genuinely trying to see what you can achieve naturally, you need to be way more patient, hire a coach if you can to help guide you to get the most out of training, recovery and nutrition and rinse and repeat for years. What’s your goal here?

Hi guys happy Sunday! I slept AMAZING last night. Up for a walk and usual morning routine and then off to a classic car show. I don’t know a thing about classic cars but saw some cool cars. Headed over to train a lot later than usual but still had a great session. Hams glutes and delts. All done before the gym shut 👍🏼 home after to finish up check ins and work for the day and then enjoyed a lovely Korean off plan.

Hi guys happy Saturday! Up early to head over to a shoot. Wrapped in the early afternoon and I felt totally wiped out. Backed up footage and continued with client work till the evening and then headed back home to end the day.

Hi guys, long day today. Up early to head over to my grandmothers as she needs her boiler fixed! Engineer said 8-1pm and so I wanted to make sure I’d be there in case she wasn’t up yet! Headed over to the gym after and trained quads and glutes. I came ‘on’ at the most inconvenient time and so had a pretty uncomfortable quad and glutes session. Actually felt very strong just struggled to recover between sets and had to purchase another pair of leggings at the gym before the session even started… iykyk. Back home after to continue work for the day, quick food shop. Final meal and prepped food for tomorrow as I’m up early again for a shoot. Very ready for bed

Hi guys happy Thursday! Nothing special today. Usual morning routine and then another day of laptop work! Check ins, training analysis, calls and editing. I did break up the day having a walk to the post office to send off some MAD orders but for majority of the day I was on my ass. In for quads and glutes tomorrow 🙌🏼

Hi guys happy Wednesday! Up for my usual morning routine, work and then in for hams and glutes. Great session with a few small small load increases for the first couple movements. Happy days! Popped over to my grandmothers to see how she was doing but she was having a nap and so chilled at hers for a little then headed back home to continue for the day with some training analysis. Very much ready for bed

Hiya Owen, I agree with the guys above. Keep it simple. I also second what Nathan mentioned. If you’re in a position where you truly need to tidy up bf wise, I wouldn’t always recommend a short sharp diet. If you’re looking to go back into a build for a substantial amount of time, there’s no need to rush the process. Tidy up over a longer period of time and then get back to building.
