Hey Guys

A busy day of client work today – and a new client set up done too.

Me and Kuba went on a nice dog walk this afternoon somewhere different which was amazing

Ready for an early night!

I agree with Hilly here

But sometimes oats when in a diet phase are quite filling if you can digest them well! Gluten free are the way to go

So like most have said above it’s definitely much better for progress if body composition stays in a good place. You can’t change your fat disposition but you can change the amount of fat you carry – so the bits you put on quicker needs to stay at an OK level to make sure progression can stay bang on

Hey Guys

An extra rest day today as Kuba is a little bit poorly and I’m not feeling the best.
So I spent the day doing client work and walking the dogs.
I went to see my Nan too spent an hour with her just chatting about the world. What an amazing woman ?

It will be a basic estimation, I wouldn’t go off an app. It’s much simpler than that. Track all variables and adjust accordingly

Rest day today.

A nice visit in the morning from Ian at 2bros to give Kuba his Arnold’s invite. I’m so proud of him and I can’t wait for him to showcase his hard work later in the year.

I went with my mum to see my nan too as she’s super not well at the mo but was lovely to see her little smiley face.

Client work and dog walking and food shopping done too ❤️

I agree a low intensity plod on the treadmill will aid digestion and get you ready for your session.

Anything make strenuous cardio wise needs to be away from sessions to ensure they are optimal

Morning All

My mid week check in today – I currently run 2 x check ins per week. I will be 20 weeks out from this Saturday I’m unsure as to when Kuba will transition me into a deficit I reckon 1-2 weeks max left of pushing. Weight is increasing nicely we are currently 67KG I think my body composition is good for this weight, still getting great pumps in the gym, performance is strong I’m not a BIG bodybuilder but I’m sitting a lot of weight over what what be my norm and 17kg over my stage weight so sleep isn’t the greatest but a damn sight better than pre delaod.

I’ve added some pics below for you to see. I’ll document my full prep as usual on here so you can all see the journey.

It will help but it’s not going to be significant.

Digestion is more case of making sure your food quality stays high, your not overeating and rotating food sources.

Everything listed will help yes but none will solve issues that are simply there from overeating or eating foods that aren’t sitting well or even chewing food properly.

If you get a good quality one you’ll absolutely fine – I’m pretty sure it’s the real cheap tins that aren’t great but same with all meat and fish better quality the better

Rest day today –

Was spent dog walking, working, food prepping, saw a friend for a catch up and then back out for a lather dog walk with Kuba at a Lake near to us

A great restful day and ready for push tomorrow

I would brace at the bottom while resetting as I feel it’s important to roll with a dead stop and not the touch a go method personally as you get much more out of the movement and cannot gain momentum making the exercise harder – bracing at the top would be pretty pointless IMO
