Do what works best for you – i beeline with a low vol – high intensity approach it’d be pretty hard to recover from.
Perhaps a different style of training you may be able to

Hello you lovely lot
Rest Day for me today
Not too much done except eating + resting
And got some things prepared for the weekend so that we don’t have to rush or risk forgetting anhthing important
We’ve got our tan times and I’ve got my hair and make up times so all set.
It is SO strange we literally drive 90 mins and we are where we have to be to compete – this hasn’t happened since 2018 for me that was my last show before I won my pro card for the 2bros amateur Olympia and actually hit before Corinne and Jordan asked if I would join this incredible team
I was doing some reminiscing today of how far I’ve come in the last 2 years – I’ve added a pic below 🙂 I’m proud and also so grateful to Kuba for what he does to help achieve this.

I’d do a push, pull and a legs – you hit everything that way. Do you do well with your nutrition and recovery too? You can still do those and have a great work / life / fitness balance. Do you just go with the motions when you train? Or train intensely? I find people that are stagnant don’t put the most effort to all the above. You don’t have to be a full time BB to improve your physique but you do have to lead a healthy lifestyle, train hard and balance off plans well 🙂

Yeah I agree with kuba in an isolation movement – obviously there are movements that you use the adductor whislt doing – some of my clients do it between 2 cable with cuffs around the knee but it’s not the same

Hey All
Happy Sunday
Peak Week for the Arnold’s UK starts today
A super flat little meggy today – but aiming to bring an even more improved look to stage next Sunday.
Even better I can spend the whole experience with Kuba – he has the lead as I obviously look at myself and think fucking hell what a bag of dicks right now lol. So he can do the thinking 🙂
Push Day tomorrow excited for it!

Leg day today – last leg day of my Arnold’s prep 🙂
Felt pretty strong still in the gym I just don’t have much energy for “social interaction” at the moment
Rest day tomorrow and having my nails done now exciting xx

Hey Meg , you looked unreal so much improvement . Sorry if you posted already but what was the contest cycle ? X
Hey!
10mg primo for the last 6 weeks of prep (that’s first and Arnold’s just 6 weeks on)
Constant HRT 2mg every 5 days due to my testosterone being perimenopausal level at peak offseason last year
GH was in at 0.2 but was pulled out at 10 days out from my first show

Hey guys
Last leg day done and filmed for YT with detailed break down of how’s and whys, I will cover some here for you all.
De volume sessions start from today, I don’t reduce loading I simply reduce volume and back off from taking sets to total failure.
Today I took most my iso work to almost failure and left a rep in tank on leg press.
Todays session was pretty good Despite being the flattest yet and deflated my lifts retained pretty well, I did not do the RDL today 0 need or risk taking it so todays hams dominant session was as below
Adductor x2
RDL ( none )
Leg press x2
Lying leg curl x3
Adductor ( none )
Leg ext x2
Calf x2
Leg raise x1
Last one in the books, feel good and the look is better. I don’t even care if I place last. This shit isn’t about placings for me or competing competing is just the cherry on top of the process that I completely adore.
Quite lucky that the wife @MeganSylvester is probably the most driven athlete I know so it makes everything comfortable and even more enjoyable.
❤️❤️

If you enjoy it for super keep it in. I have some guys who do some CrossFit / athletics alongside their training – just implement it once per week a rest day pre push and far from legs – obviously if BB becomes something you get real serious about and start to compete you may need to take it out
