    Check In day for me and Kuba is happy with how things are looking –

    We obviously took foods up on Saturday so no need to really make a change with that

    He wants to add in a 6 week cycle of 10mg primo in from today.

    This will leave me with 11 weeks to go till prep. We will pull it out until the start of prep – pull it out again mid way through prep and then utilise it at the end

    We’ve found this most effective with keeping sides lesser and aiding tissue. We also utilised a cycle December to Jan of this year too

    I agree with Sas here 100%

    I’ve never used a belt ever – and I’ve never had a hernia permitted I’m not the strongest but honestly you’ll be better with your bracing if you don’t use on – it’ll help to really build that core control which you need an abundance of for bodybuilding x

    Hey Guys

    Rest day today – first day on higher rest day meals and I feel a little fuller – guess I’d be lying if I was saying it’s not welcome haha. But breads always welcome!

    We’ve spent the day food shopping, garden centre shopping for plants and enjoying an afternoon with Kubas family just a great wholesome Sunday x

    Trying to diet this much in such a short space of time is not only going to be extremely harsh on the body but mentally it’s going to lead to some serious issues post show.

    There is only very few extremely advanced competitors who could pull this off and it would take so much from them to get it done. It just isn’t worth it

    I’m with Clare here whatever your “priority” is for the session this needs to be reflected in order so. “Push” style movements laterals, presses, flys etc to begin with snd your pull downs and rows after and then the other way around the next session –
    E.g,
    Exercise order
    Push
    Pull
    Push
    Pull
    Push
    pull
    Arms
    Arms

    Then the other way round for your pull focus

    With current plans – so back into my offseason pushing which is exciting foods starting to creep up but body weight hasn’t followed suit so give body a chance on these cals for a few more days and if we don’t see it bump up we will make some Changes

    My next assistance cycle will be added back in in august this gives us some time on and then off before prep begins 🙏🏼

    I don’t like to run a lot of assistance during an offseason as I like to give my body a break from it, but with this offseason being quite lengthy we have time for that before a prep begins

    I go with 0.5-1kg for a week – if you’re seeing a little more than this I wouldn’t be concerned but huge drops each week you probably don’t want to be seeing –

    Yes I agree with the guys above – I mean I don’t think I ever wake feeling like totally fresh when I was a little girl – but definitely worth some investigating

    To aid sleep the dream sleep from TBJP is super effective incase you need some help with your sleep x

    Hey All

    Good day today –

    Push session.

    I re-set on the Atlantis as kuba wanted me to add a little pause at the bottom so I dropped a little 5kg a side and standardised my form a little

    The rest of the session was really progressive so really happy with that xxx

    No difference in macros – I prefer Jasmine a nice mix between light like basmati but more wet like sticky rice 🙂

    Hey All

    So today was a rest day.

    A nice day – work in the morning, am in person check in and some extra client work this afternoon.

    Ready for tomorrow with push.

    A few days into the push phase – clen had gone from 120 down to nothing, foods bumped a little and body weight hasn’t yet risen. I won’t run any meals away from plan for some time, as I don’t really feel like one RN and I wany my body to settle back into a push. I want to ensure my start point for prep is perfect, I’m not saying you can’t eat off plan and I would always keep cals the same as my day but I’m just going to get more out of my normal plan let’s be honest – I have a mental switch off in other ways 🙂

    I’d go for a bit more if you’re not experiencing any negative return in your training, recovery etc

    I’m with Michaela – 2-3 more weeks of dieting – get it all wrapped up and a good few more ponds dropped before you drop the hammer on a long offseason
