Hey All

Last day here in Colombia 🇨🇴

It’s been a great trip, hoping it will help with recovering well moving forward 🙏🏼

First day back in the gym since my knee treatment. Knees felt pretty good, but didn’t push the boundaries with movements with too much knee flexion. Hoping by the time we get back home it’ll be back to full send with lower. Grateful nothing has impacted any upper body training and we need more glutes ahah so a fuck load of hip thrusts 😉

Kuba had me do:

Adductors x 2
Lying Leg Curl x 2
Leg Press x 2
Hip thrusts x 2
Calves x 3

Hey Guys

So today was a busy one.

Started the day with the tour of Pablo Escobar ( Kuba loves him can you tell ) saw where he’s burried, his prison, where he was killed etc.

Then i had physio post my knee injections yesterday – my cartilage is totally worn behind my patella, if it was left any longer it would have been totally bone on bone so very hopeful all of this will help. But only time will tell, it’s not an over night thing but can take months to allow for a lot less pain than my usual day to day.

Then to the gym to train pull, with not much choice for equipment just ran the same session – as above! Was great, hard session!

Hey Meg, love reading the journal and just simply following your journey. Hope the stem cells will help with your cartilage!!! Wish you lots of strength and all the best with that „injury“ since i am also recovering from my quad tendon tears left and right, knowing what it takes mentally to not be able to perform at 100%

Keep pushing and putting all the valuable content out there, it’s really appreciated, i can assure that![/quote]
Hey Michael

Thank you so much for your kind message.

I hope your injury is healing well! Even if we’re a little injured we find a way to work around it so we don’t step back ❤️

Thank you again!

I agree with Rhea the blueberry and vanilla ice cream is unreal.

But I also don’t have mine mixed I have my whey as a paste on top 🙂

And to what point do you think you should control the change of direction? Micro pause in every movement? Or just not bounce out of the bottom?

A micro pause would literally just take that bounce out of the hole as it’s not an actual second – so yes create a definitive end and beginning and rinse till you’ve got nothing f left in the tank x

Posing wise yes you could use a posing coach or just watch vids that people that created to help guide you. Once you nail the basics. Adding your own individual flair is a good thing

I agree with Michaela, don’t get too obsessed right now with what needs to come up most and focus on having a plan that’s able to get you big everywhere – you’re well balanced just need mass everywhere 🙌🏽

Leave it a few days – you’ll be fine to train other body parts until then like legs . But just let it heal a little first
