Hi guys struggled to update my log yesterday (usual app stuff) yesterday was a lovely rest day where I did a little work and actually got to chill out, read a book, have a bath. It was great. Usual Monday today up for a walk, work, in for quads and glutes and for some reason it was crazy busy in the gym and so had to make a few swaps but overall a great session. Back home to continue with work and editing for the day.

Hi guys, woke up this morning from such a deep sleep I couldn’t remember what day it was. Happy Saturday. Usual routine in the morning, some client work and then in for hams, glutes and delts. Now… my lower back and glute med(s) are absolutely FRIED from sitting on the back of that motorbike and so today’s session was a bit of a challenge but still managed to get in a really good session. Back home after to round off the day and now chilling

Hi guys, a rest day today. Step and meals consumed. A day spent at my laptop but managed to get quite a lot done. Spent the evening going for a ride on the back of my partners motorbike. Scary but fun

Hi guys, off to a shoot today at Rocket Padel at Battersea power station. Lots of fun but a long day of travel and shooting. All meals still consumed but feeling knackered

Hi guys busy one today! In for legs and had a great session. Nothing special but the session went as follows

Seated leg curl
Adductor
Leg extension
Pendulum
Split squat (smith)
Glute drive
Kickback
Calves
Hollow holds

This session hasn’t changed for the longest time. Still getting a lot out of these movements so no need to change.

Totally agree with the guys above. Clare has given some solid actionable directions that will put you in a much better position to make decisions around if cardio needs to be implemented or not 👍🏼

Hi guys happy Sunday! Felt like a Monday today. Slept well but felt like I could sleep for days when I woke up. Out for a walk + EARLY food shop because Sunday’s get busy. Then a bit of work before heading in to train hams and glutes. Good session! All movements felt good even after a bit of a natter with a fellow wellness competitor talking shows and goals for next year. Very fun. My gym is limited when it comes to serious athletes and so it’s nice to have a chat like this once in a while. Back home to wrap up the day and hopefully get to bed a touch earlier

Hi guys, another busy day. No training. Slept AWFULLY last night and so today felt like a bit of a drag. Work, editing and hopefully better sleep tonight even if it is a bit disrupted

Hi guys VERY late night tonight and busy day! Up for the usual then in to train early as I needed to drop my partner off at the airport before continuing work this afternoon. Great session! Zero interruptions and everything felt great. As predicted, near enough a week back in routine after being unwell and body weight is back up and I feel MUCH better. Spent the evening chilling with my sisters. Got back very late and very ready for bed

Hi guys, rest day today and I need it. Up for my usual routine for a walk + breakfast then spent majority of the day working. Client work, FADE work and calls and finally wrapping up the day with a walk + food shop.

Dried fruits, honey, rice, cream of rice, sourdough, Jams. Likely many more I can’t think of off the top of my head.

I like to cut up potatoes into wedges and then oven bake them (I don’t have an air fryer, if you do use that) that way they’re not so high in volume. You can add seasoning too to make them palatable e.g. garlic, oregano, chilli peppers. I find oven baking/air fryer reduces the volume a LOT because there’s a lot less water content in the potato.

Hiya Rus, use of these substances will absolutely have you fail drug testing in a number of natural federations. It can also result in a lifetime ban so I suggest avoiding using these substances.

For acne scarring and pigmentation, I suggest seeking help from a dermatologist. The appearance may be able to be improved with some products. There are online services such as Dermatica and Skin + Me (I use skin and me and have adult acne) that can be very helpful and affordable where you can send pictures and receive help.

As for your hip/glute pain in hinge movements. Have you seen anyone for bodywork/assessment? Firstly, I suggest avoiding doing movements that cause further pain and then getting properly assessed. From there you can work with someone who can help with rehab and give you proper diagnosis and direction.

Hi guys, busy day today and I’m beat. Up for usual morning routine and in to train a little earlier than usual for hams glutes and delts. REALLY good session. A total 180 from this time last week. Popped over to see my lovely grandma and then back home for calls, client work and check ins. Wrapped up quite late and very much ready for bed.
