    Upper session today, push focused. Really strong session after yesterday’s high day food. Patrick was really happy with today’s pictures, he said front and side poses are close condition wise and the rear is on schedule and coming in slower which is normal for me. Lower kcals nutrition today, but overall things are moving really well.

    Session today was;

    Primer – chest supported row x2
    Pec deck x2
    Low incline smith chest press x2
    Flat seated chest press x3
    Db side lat raise on bench x2
    Triceps straight bar pushdown x3
    D handle single arm bicep curl x3
    Abductor x3

    I agree with Kuba here. However, it’s individual based if you feel good and of works for you then stick with it. NPP doesn’t agree with a lot of people, myself included but once you know it’s easier to make a decision what you prefer

    Another weight drop overnight from yesterday and also a new bodyweight low by 0.4kg. Bodyweight this morning fasted was 122.2kg and things are moving at pace. Patrick is happy with where things are at currently, and today a high food day set alongside my upper 2 training session. For those interested I will post this session up on my IG page later today.

    I’m feeling really good, focused on the task at hand and as always 1 day at a time.

    I agree with Hilly here. Looking at how your body responds to the volume, how your recovery is from the said volume and if you can sustain say 2 sets at one rep range for the period of your training block. Also look at your physique needs as some body parts might need different requirements based on stronger / weaker body parts, so adjust based on needs

    Makes 0 difference pin your Gh while you eat doesn’t matter – takes a while for it to peak so food does not impact it at all

    In my last meal i usually eat

    50 oats

    250 egg white with 30 isolate

    20 peanut butter

    Do you think i can take my hgh immediatly after meal amd go bed?

    My goal is get in contest shape[/quote]
    You will be fine. I have short window before my last meal and gh pre bed and it’s not affected me. Consistency is key, don’t overthink it

    Today’s a rest day for me, check in with Patrick this morning weight dropped 0.5kg overnight so 0.2kg from my previous lowest bodyweight in prep that I seen a few days ago. Condition coming through some more today, Patrick was happy with what we are seeing from minimal changes since I started prep 4 weeks 1 day ago.

    Lower kcals today, 30 mins cardio on walking pad AM and late afternoon.

    Client work, sports massage / posing, mobility and haircut is making up my day today. Another day to take a step forwards, 1 day at a time

    50mg divide by 3ml.

    10iu gives 1666 mcg which imo is a solid daily dose

    Pre bed

    Insulin pin

    SubQ

    Daily

    Sorry mate, can you give the same advice about bpc and tb? For injury[/quote]

    BPC – 250-500mcg daily

    TB500 – 2-5mg weekly

    Duration 4-8 weeks. [/quote]

    Are they both mixed with 3ml bac water too?[/quote]
    How much water you add can vary, but once you know what dose you want, how big your Vial is of each peptide, if you type into google peptide calculator you will be able to work out how much bac water to add and where to draw this out too on your insulin needle also

    I personally take mine after meal 1 and then again a second serving of each with my last meal of the day. Depending if you are assisted and what your bloodwork says, is a good indication of how much of each to take a day.

    April 13, 2026 at 1:19 pm in reply to: abductors

    I train abductors directly when I move into comp prep. Not to build muscle but I have found when I get leaner this direct exercise helps to bring out more glute lines. If even it’s placebo I personally feel my glutes getting harder and I take 3 sets 12-15 reps at the end of each of my training sessions,

    But what you need is really based on your needs / Training volume. I think it’s important to know what your body needs and adjust accordingly and don’t worry about what others are doing

    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.
