    May 10, 2023 at 6:48 pm in reply to: Leg soreness and sldl

    I don’t have an RDL on my leg sessions but I do have a hyper focusing on hamstrings

    At the moment I have 3 sets of sldl but it’s all with some rir because I want to practice my form since I only very recently put that in

    Oscar the soreness is not that disruptive, it’s just a slight sensation if I flex my knees or stretch the hams, but it’s enough to make me wonder if this could impact my hamstring recovery and also my sldl when I start progressing it more aggressively. (When I’ll start pushing it more towards rir0 I’d do 1 or 2 sets)

    How has your next leg session post this progressing??
    If it’s progressing well I can’t see it being a problem, if so try dropping the sets to 2 for your SLDL
    If I didn’t train each time I had some slight doms id never train

    I agree with all above a holding phase would always be better before going into a deficit

    Lots of tissue added and your body comp is still in a great place looks like it’s been a very productive growing phase

    I echo what everyone says above –

    But speak like yourself don’t try to speak like anyone else, the more raw you can be the more people will want you and want to stay with you.

    Content is great but make sure it’s things people want to see and listen to ….

    If you don’t have a huge following, I couldn’t push for more in person work to build a profile that way too

    I think you should gain knowledge from you coach in every avenue, it’s why you choose to have them as a coach.

    Not to just do but to understand why.

    Morning Guys

    Yesterday was a busy day.

    Client work, call and to see one of my lovely clients for some help with her posing, she’s super new to bodybuilding + finds it all a little nerve wracking, I can definitely emphasise for how I felt when I first started too.

    And then a manic afternoon packing for the trip away this weekend, a shame to be missing the fitX booth with the TBJP team but we’d unfortunately planned our trip before the dates of the event was announced, look forward to being at the TruAthlete games booth.

    Packing as a bodybuilder is definitely a little difficult and slightly stressful but glad the bulk of it is done

    Im not too sure which hacks kings have.

    But for a squat movements wise hacks – the cybex + gym lecco are great.

    Pendulim the Atlantis and Predator strength are the two nicest I’ve used
