Hey All

Hope you’ve all had a good day

Push day today – took the 2 plates for the first time managed 4 then dropped down to last times top set weight and got 2 extra reps – I’ll drop this again next time to 1 plate and a 15 and build up again to 2 at the end of my time on this movement I would like 2 plates for at least 8/9 reps.

Session was filmed for the site today too so you’ll all be able to see!

Thanks both of you.

Clare i use different fat sources, just want some variety with nut butters

I use cashew butter – I really like the taste and texture of it. Is a great day source to utilise also!

A rest day here today post legs – I usually have a restless sleep post legs but I was like a dead lady in bed, maybe I didn’t train hard enough 😂

So today was non eventful – obviously working as per normal

Looking forward to tomorrows push session, it’s the cybex incline smith day so we will be aiming for 2pps for the session

I have the same as kuba – people sometimes say why bother if digestion is good. If it actually makes it even better then amazing! I find my digestion is always good. The additional morning drink makes it even better!

Happy Monday All

Hope you’ve all had a fab day!

Monday has been a busy day for us work wise but I think that’s the same for everyone isn’t it 🙂
Starting to get things prepared for vegas with packing so we don’t have to do all at once close to it. Very excited to go!

Leg day today – we added DB RDL instead of the belt squat – felt much better for sure. Belt squat will stay but post one pull sesison instead of one of my hip thrusts. My legs feel pretty mashed, Job done

I personally would aim to bring them off prior to a prep but I actually came off during a comp
Prep and found my body was a lot more responsive after (I was 10 weeks in and 10 weeks out)

Hey Guys

Hope you’ve all had a great day!

Today was a rest day – we had a busy morning of work and calls before heading out this afternoon

Even if it’s for just a coffee at the moment the mental break this gives us on a rest day to crack on with work in the evening and set us up with a fresh mind for training day, is just perfect!!

It’s whatever digests best for you is go more EAA carb powder for myself but have clients who do the opposite and works perfectly

Hey all

Pull day here a really solid session – felt a little beat going into the session but once we got warmed up I felt ready to go.

Had a lovely evening with friends tonight post workout having some sushi!

Tomorrow we will get bloods done to see where everything is at

I agree with the guys of seeing a doc / high level physio to see what more can be done of a real diagnosis, sounds like an actual scan would give a real outlook as to what needs to be done xxx

Morning All

Push day here for us – this is the session with both the incline Atlantis + high inc Atlantis.

I’ve been way over rep range the past couple push sessions, so going to take some progressions beyond what I’ve currently been taking to hit my actual rep range – will base this off my warm ups. But I feel fab right now – sleeps good, appetite is good, recovery feels good. Ready to go.

Excited for this weekend as we have some occasions booked with friends + some us time on Sunday will be nice!

Yes – it won’t be a problem- I find making sure curcumin or any health supps that have anti inflammatory properties I keep as far away from the workout perimeter though

Hey Guys

2nd check in day for me today – of this week

Super happy with everything at the moment all seems to be moving really well together

No major grumbles just getting strong and trying to get massive ahah!

Yes as the ladies state above 👆🏽 it can help with recovery.

For me every little helps for sure – as long as you’re being optimal in every other way possible- training hard, eating well – otherwise what is there to truly recover from.

Other sources of good rehab: salt baths, ice baths, regular tissue work, quality sleep, good routine, mobility
