Me and kerry always take our join-in pre bed. The main thing like you mentioned here is taking it away from your training window for the reasons Bish has said. Great supplement

Hi all
So I stayed over in Bradford last night after Kerry’s show. Check in with Patrick this morning, food today has been higher kcals meal 1-3 and lower kcals meal 4-6. I trained over in bradford today a gym called muscle bound that I heard a lot of good things about.
My upper session was really good, great gym, good vibes and equipment too. I vlogged this for YouTube so look out this over the next week.

I 100% agree with what Joe has said here. As long as you follow the correct foods / amounts even if the macros are different from using different brands then the goal whether that’s dieting, maintenance of bulking will work perfectly fine

Over in Bradford today ahead of the tbjp sponsored 2brospro Ben weider show. Here with the tbjp team and also supporting kerry as she will be competing in the bikini pro line up later today. Looking to seeing the improvements she has made since the Arnold’s uk.
Rest day for me today means lower kcal day.

Hi guys
So a change in training today. I ran an arms workout and 1 chest and 1 side delts exercise instead of my usual upper 3 workout. Today should have been a rest day, but as I am travelling to the 2bros show tomorrow for the tbjp stand / expo and also watching kerry compete myself and Patrick agreed tomorrow should be a rest day and so today we used this session as a chance to get some training in and not taxing on my body.
I had a really good session, I enjoyed it and potentially it might replace my upper 2 session a bit deeper into prep. Food today was lower kcals but pre workout and post workout meals were from my higher kcals.
Training session today was:
Single arm cuffed lateral raise x3
Low incline smith chest press x2
D handle triceps pushdown x2
Over shoulder triceps ext x2
Triceps rope pushdown x2
Bicep cable curl facing stack x2
Bicep cable curl facing away from stack x2
Db hammer curl x2
Abductor x3 -
I agree with what Hilly has said with feelings post workout. Have you considered taking unwind post workout? This helps me a great deal

Check in this morning, bodyweight up slightly from yesterdays higher day so back down into a lower calorie day today.
Training session today was upper and I have a good session. Headphones in, no filming sets got after it and done what was needed with some good lifts and then posing and cardio afterwards.
Full session today was;
Meadow row x2
Prime plate loaded row x2
Upper back pulldown x2
Single arm cuffed cable lat raise x3
Neutral grip seated chest press x2
Cross body triceps ext x3
Single arm d handle pushdown x3
Abs – deadbugs x3 sets -
1kg weight drop overnight following yesterday lower kcals nutrition day and a new prep low in bodyweight 123.5kg, that’s 0.6kg down from my previous prep low that I seen last week Friday and Saturday. Today makes 3 weeks being on prep where I have seen bodyweight go from 128.1kg down to 123.5kg – so 4.6kg down with not many changes at all. Today is a higher kcals nutrition day, I’m really liking the carb cycling approach it’s working well for me. I will be checking in with Patrick again tomorrow, he was really happy with today’s look.
Pre workout meal going in today, then I will be training legs. Full leg session will be shown in my next YouTube video coming out any day so keep your eyes peeled for that.

I personally agree with Meg, this is where I feel most comfortable on the Cybex seated ham curl in this position. In terms for the husla pad this isn’t something I’ve used before on the seated ham curl only for leg ext. you could of course give it a try and see how that feels for you.
Failing that you can adjust the setting for where the ankle pad is, you might find that helps

Hi bud
Can you give some info please on the above.
What phase are you in currently and how long have you been in that for (cutting, maintenance, bulking)
What is your sleep like each night in terms of hours?
When it comes to de-load when the last time you had one?
Steps / cardio where are they at daily / over the course of the week?
-
Rest day for me today, so usual client work, sports massage with posing, 2 x 30 mins walk on my walking pad AM and PM. Check in with Patrick this morning no changes to plan for this rest day business as usual. Tomorrow I will also do a check in and then the plan of action for leg day nutrition will be set then too.
Feeling good, rhr is coming down it was 6 last night with over 7 hours sleep so I know health data is getting better whilst I’m getting leaner

I agree with the team here with how to structure cardio. Rest day calories I would introduce with lower carbs than you training day as your energy requirements are less due to not training. Having a daily baseline level of steps would be useful too
-
Check in with Patrick today, no changes to my current plan business as usual. Lower kcals nutrition today for my upper push focused gym session, so this will be two days lower kcals following yesterdays rest day and tomorrow will be higher kcals for my back and biceps session.
Energy felt good in today’s session, I trained after 1 meal instead of 3 meals as I picked my daughter up late morning.
Off to the cinema shortly with my daughter and kerry 🙂

I would look other variables too , not just the GH. How is stress etc? As there might be more then just the GH causing an issue with sleep.
I wish I had stress and this would be the problem. My life is really perfect in all aspects, no stress at all.[/quote]
Don’t wish for stress, less stress perfect environment to reach your goals. -
Rest day for me today. Woke up today bodyweight 124.1kg second day in a row even after higher kcals yesterday so things are moving well. Today is a lower kcals and tomorrow is checkin in day so we will see where things are at. Today I’m at a gym Leco event an open day at a gym in Leicester. Good vibes and nice to meet new faces and familiar ones too
