    I agree with Jamie here

    Run with this set up if the movements feel good for you.

    But start at the bottom focus on form and tempo and increase weight little by little this is how you will bring up any area

    Hey All

    Happy Tuesday

    Push day and back to normal food plan today which felt nice for the belly.

    I felt super good in the gym today – lots of progressions – I felt full and good. Just all round good day.

    I prefer being a little hungry I won’t complain at a refeed but they remind me of how full I am in the offseason lol so the hungry days are definitely the easier days.

    Yes I think it’s a great place to add in a hinge – if posterior chain needs to come up hinges are the king of bringing the whole posterior up if you can recover well I see no harm in having it in both rotations

    Hey Guys

    Weight was down this AM by 0.5 after another high day yesterday so kubas said we’re going to run another today to fully drop the majority of my fatigue.

    We’re at a point where if we wanted to we could push and be ready in 2 weeks but we have 4 weeks so we can take our time.

    I’d honestly just fully rest from everything it’s better to have as little stress on the body as possible when feeling poorly so better to totally rest than trying to keep chipping away and possibly end up feeling worse xx

    Hey Guys.

    Another high day for me today – Kuba called after seeing my shots this AM.

    I do feel FULL this evening as in belly FULL haha. I’m ready for a good sleep.

    I’m unsure if we will go back straight in with all the steps or keep lower I’ll see how I wake tomorrow and see what Kuba says.

    Hope you’ve all had a great Sunday

    I do the above as Kuba does ensuring my clients supplement with some natural health supps like sea kelp and iodised salt to aid boosting the natural thyroid function

    These are something I’d use year round but ensure they are IN post contest

    How much of each would you recommend Meg?[/quote]
    Personally I run 1g sea kelp AM and 2g salt per meal

    If you simply cannot get the ROM I wouldn’t hit it you don’t have to do any movement use movements that work well for you and that are effective for the gym you train at

    Meg,

    Can you comment on the supplements you take throughout the day? the ones that are related to preparation, and if there are any, the ones that are related to more personal care, such as skin, anti-aging, enhancing appearance and beauty.

    Hey Peter. I don’t take any anti aging or skin supps I do have a skin care routine with some zinc gel and water based cream too 🙂
    Health supps wise – curecoming, omega 3, vital support, zinc, krill oil, sea kelp, vit d K2, psyllium husk

    Hey Guys

    Hope you’ve had a wonderful start to the weekend.

    Kuba ordered a high couple days after seeing me pose this AM condition is really pulling through abs we’re a while off stage time. So two high days and expenditure with steps down from 16k to 12.5k moving forwards from here.

    It’s exciting to be ready and cruise in. This year just feels so much better

    Hey Guys

    Happy Thursday – nearly said Wednesday lol but it’s definitely Thursday

    Normal day – client check ins, dog walking, house work, food shop.

    Rest day here and it was needed body was a little battered so a nice little chiropractor session with some dry needling to help ?

    Today’s new low weigh of prep was 59.05 I was honestly ridiculously happy with my shots this morning – now we push for more 🙂

    It depends on size of a person really. As if some heavy bodybuilder were to push up
    To or past 10k it would probably do more harm than good. Take Kuba at the height of his prep 9k has been enough to manage recovery well but move around to see weight drop effectively.

    For most women yes a 10-12k would be adequate enough as a base and then can taper up from there.

    Going by your pic I’d say 10k is cool as a base and tapering up from there as you pull down will be fab

    Hey!

    I don’t think adding in anabolics at this point is the best decision yet.

    It looks as though just from pics you have a lot of progress that can come through proper training and nutrition first.

    With all assistance comes sides – it’s more dosage, making you get the real deal and the length of time you’re on that if boundaries are pushed that’s when more sides occur but sides are a given whether little or small with using assistance.

    Don’t rush take your time gain some training maturity, build a good amount of tissue and get nutrition bang on before thinking of assistance

    Hey Meg, thank you so much, I really appreciate it! ❤ [/quote]

    I agree with the health supps and regardless of how expensive the bloods are I’d get them done because you can’t put a price on health!

    There is obviously something not quite right if this happens each time especially with the soft approach you have with coming down
