Post show is a time to relax but stay sensible.
Enjoy the day off post show eating some nice foods but making sure portion sizes stay good so that it doesn’t affect your digestion too much and then as jimmy says above during that week post show enjoy your new meal plan with some additional off plans added in a few days off training just to reset your body as it’ll be battered from show day!
And you’ll set yourself up for a nice offseason. There are no set rules with how to approach this but just be smart with food portions

Rest day was needed today.
I completed all client work, spent early afternoon seeing a few clients who are coming close to show, went to see a friend for a coffee who I’ve not seen in a long time which was super nice and then spent the evening with the dogs and my parents.
Tomorrow will be a busy one and a leg day so early night for me

Exactly what Rick says if you have a look through the vids on the site lots of us talk through exactly how to hit up these exercises xxx

Hey All
Today was a usual Friday lots of client work done, cooking, eating and walking the dogs.
Today was a pull day and I dropped the load a little on my snatch due to it breaking down a little lash session. So went in with 10kg light reps were solid and went up to 10 so now I’ll te add the weight back on

Happy Thursday All
Today’s session went extremely well very happy!
Strength is increasing week to week – I’ve been off assistance for 18 weeks and started the pull down with my prep. Things couldn’t be any better so I’m super happy!
I don’t think the look is too shabby for all the variables above, still a little flat but things will start to pop a little more soon!
Looking great Meg, looking forward to seeing you progress through this phase to see what you bring![/quote]

I always find due to recovery to factor in a hip hinge on a pull day.
I trailed it in a leg day also but found I wasn’t recovering and was affecting performance

Evening All!
A great day in the gym today was super happy that my knee is feeling better – we added in some peptides and lots of extra mobility and feeling as good as possible. Had a great session and managed PBs on all lifts.
To say I was upset the other day when it niggled would be an understatement. Training means a lot to me and when something happens to affect it it gets me down anyway back to feeling happy!

I agree with Clare here I have a few clients who must do this due to working away.
We have selected exercises that can be done at all 3 gyms – they have separate log books for each gym and each session to make sure they can refer to and progress accordingly

I love yoga especially hot yoga – as the muscles are already a little relaxed with them being warm it’s a little less risky when stretching. Trail it and see how you go

Happy Monday All.
So down to 64.05 today after a heavy pull session yesterday.
We had a different variation of a hinge with a block banded around the hip pull. Managed 160kg for 8 so will go in again with more weight next time as I was happy with form

Less expenditure the closer you get to the goal will allow less inflammation and for the lines to appear deeper.
If it’s your first time dieting the legs can take longer to come in so little dieting for a little longer or a little harder can help them come in more so.

Hey Jack
Sounds to me like your going to heavy or just not breathing properly when doing the heavier sets.
As you say it feels better when you focus on the breathing. I know if I’ve over reached breathing becomes a little rushed so just work with something you can get 100% right in all aspectsMeg Sylvester IFBBPRO

Hey guys!
So check in down by 0.15 so things are moving as we go.
The look is much flatter today but we know we must go through this phase to get to the nicer stage.
Strength was very good today on compounds hit PBS with weight and reps and matched on my isolations so a good push day!
