Hope you’ve all had a Good Friday.

Todays been a little different as I took my niece and sister in law to a princess experience day, as my niece loves all things princess. It was actually really great and interactive and educational, so hope she had a fab day.

And then to the gym – hit up 3pps on the Atlantis incline press felt super nice. Finally feeling great and back into my own routine / groove post the trip away.

Hey All

Post hamstrings yesterday it was needed I still didn’t feel 100% yesterday but 100% better than when we returned from America so that’s positive

Hey,

So firstly don’t be worry or scared, people go off track sometimes (it doesn’t sound like a huge amount away from plan)
But if you’re wanting your training to be a little more optimal then some good nutrition around this definitely going to be needed.

I’d aim to return with more “baseline” calories for now keeping your expenditure in with steps and some cardio it’ll help your health a lot + for sure helps keep body comp in check too.

Then as you settle into your plan if you feel more food is needed for better performance or if you want to build, in line with that you can reduce expenditure a little. Then needing to tidy up just reduce cals a tad or push the expenditure a little.
Make small changes see how the body responds and go with it

But from where you are choose to jump into a plan, as the only person who can choose to is you

Hey Guys

Leg day here for us

Feeling much better for me with appetite back in the mix yay, but still not 100% so listened to body once got in the gym and decided some less weihjt (2 sessions prior loading) and some extra reps

Came out feeling great.

It’s easy to get caught up on numbers but when you don’t feel good but are ready to get the body back moving yoube hot got to go about it in a smart way.

Mentally feeling good will have the body back feeling good sooner rather than later!

What are your levels at currently?

The above will help raise the iron levels. For sure.

But what do your other blood markers actually say? As I can’t see any screenshots / pics to see how elevated? And how out of range things are?

I agree with Hilly

A strip back to solidify things would be a great idea!

I find with most chest movements people don’t get a great connection with them as when you allow your arms to drive forwards (on a fly or press) they let there shoulders come too. Causing protraction at the shoudlers and little to not connection at the chest

Everyone is different rice just may not be very good for you

Why don’t you try your diet without for now and see how it goes

I digest bread better than any carb so I tend to have a lot of it in my day

Happy Boxing Day

Today was a push day – had a really strong session.

Since this flu thing we’ve had my appetite has been pretty low so getting foods in bud opting for less volume to help get it in

Tomorrow will be pull and I look forward to it already!

Must like everyone – if things are aligned properly the there is no reason you cannot.

I think as with everyone it’s important to check bloodwork to see how aligned you hormones are as this is super impressive as your natural ranges decline due to age.

And mentally don’t allow yourself to think “because I’m older it’s not going to happen” change the mindset to…what I’m going to do is….the mind is also a very important part to have aligned also

This is where I wouldn’t look online for any advice, seek medical & professional help.

When it comes to injuries like this you can make things 100% worse if you make the wrong call.

Avoid doing anything that causes pain and irritation, go private to get a scan if you are able to.

Hey Guys

Today is travel day from vegas

Definitely caught this awful flu some silly sausage brought to the Olympia – but I can’t wait to get home

It was great to watch the show and meet old and new faces and have great conversations
, but the greatest motivation I see is my own progress in my journey that’s all that matters so I’m excited for more of it

Yes I with Claire on this mine when I instantly wake is a little spiked – for the above reasons. I like to just check mine once daily (obviously anyone who is diabetic etc will need to check more frequently) I wake, hydrate at least 300-500ml water and then check it
