I agree with Lara I’d separate cardio away from training so do it in the am and then training later on.

Diet needs to be spot on too – good idea to get body comp to a good place if you’ve been off the gym for a while

Eat clean always – obviously in offseaon you can have more variety by stick to the basics and work hard!

I agree with Kevin…until that fat comes off in specific areas you’ll have to get leaner everywhere else

So today was upper day – good day for numbers I added 5kg each side on shoulder press and an extra plate up and matched numbers on lay raises. Session is in the photo below

Feeling good – regarding checkin no changes have been made this week Kuba is happy so we will keep doing the same!

Hi meg question from my gf. When you are on peak weak do you increase your water through out the week or lower your water? And how many hours or days would you stop fluids for before your comp?

Hey Jack!

I don’t really ever change anything in peak week my opinion is if your ready your ready so no point in changing something that isn’t broken. I will limit water the day before to more like 4L rather than my usual 6ish (I don’t track too much as I always drink lots) then limit on show day to 200ml per meal max – hope that helps

Looks good! I’m opposite I love the leg extension before leg press gets that blood flowing and knees warm!

Good luck this weekend…

Personally I wouldn’t change up your training so soon after competing let your body get a custom to lifting heavier and eating more again and see where you progress before changing up

Sounds like sciatica which is THE MOST horrendous pain! I’d go see someone to check it out

Evening All!

Rest day today – started the day with a dog walk , then I took my car to the garage and it’s super broken so it’s gotta stay there overnight so I’m having to work remotely from home for the next couple days so all my face to face meetings have become phone meetings not ideal but means I can just get them all done.
Back in the gym for legs tomorrow ????

haha all the ladies are the bosses haha ????

after how long off do you find you drop strength?

i wouldn’t alter immediately either – only in sync with the look and performance as you mention ????

Haha we most definitely are ????????‍♀️

Last time I was off I didn’t see a massive drop in strength at all, but then again I’m not really that strong yet.

Only difference I notice when i come off is I’m just not as full that’s it, I manage to keep my lifts up so it works well, sometimes to me I think it’s more of a mental thing rather than physical like getting weaker in prep. How do you find it affects you?

The last deload I did I reduced sets going from 3-4 to 2-3 and reduced load down to 60% kept activity away from the gym the same as I’m quite active at work/home + cardio

Upper back work – so Row machines with palms facing down and elbows driving up and yes trap work

how close to a diet structure will you stick too in ibiza or will u just eat as an when an whatever you feel and fully enjoy the break?

If I was in prep or peak off offseason and on a blast I would stick to it 100% I’m taking this holiday as an opportunity to relax and fully enjoy the break before my next long push! So I will he celebrating 2 birthdays mine and Megan’s ( this years and last years as I was on prep ) both of us earning our pro cards and just both enjoy our time anyway all in one as since the begging of last year we haven’t really done anything but eat train shit sleep ???? it’s time for a night of celebrations in dc10 I think @megansylvester to make up for 2 of our birthdays Christmas Easter bank holidays in one!

Food wise il be indulging in plenty of sushi paella and il be doing a couple of shakes per day too so il stick to a good enough structure!

I will do one days full day fasting too!
