    Clare has really mailed everything on the head here

    The supplements mentioned above , are great to utilise, and if you do struggle with your skin, I would aim to keep them in regularly anyway, it will mean that likely you’ll be able to keep the flareups a little lower

    I do sometimes find that sunshine can actually help as well, if you are living in the UK, maybe a weekly sunbed could be on the cards

    And I found with a lot of my clients who do struggle with their skin our client mentioned with peptides , GHK has been a huge helping hand with my clients who do you struggle with their skin?

    Hey all

    Happy new year

    Hope you’re all had a great start to 2026

    Today is another rest day , I am feeling a lot better today, which I’m super grateful for

    I’m sure a few more days worth of getting some good sleep , getting moving around at home, and I’ll be back in the gym in no time

    Obviously, set up will be slightly different, especially with not being able to load a lot of Plates on, it’ll be nice to be able to get back in there when I I’m able to

    Hopefully you all had a nice evening celebrating if you did or a nice evening of sleeping ready for an early start today like we did here

    I’m with Louis,

    They are going to be a lot of ups and downs when it comes to Training

    That’s part of it , the push and pull of weight and reps

    If you’re getting that much anxiety, it’s making you feel a little bit rubbish going into a session, for now, let’s just swap out that movement for something different, get into it with some heavy lifting on a different machine / set up

    And you’ll be able to get back to that lift in time – it’s not worth not enjoying your training for one lift

    Hey, hope you’re well

    I personally do, lower upper lower rest repeat

    And saw huge benefits with my lower body progression , if you do the programming smart so that recovery can stay great, I think it’s a great split to be able to run with

    If you want to send over your full training set up, we can always have a look over for you ?

    Hey everyone, hope you’re good

    Rest day today for me and I obviously shared yesterday as to why

    A little bit sore today, but I’m sure they’re over the next few days things will start to feel better

    The worst things about getting up to sleep is that anaesthetic, as you wake up from it so bloated LOL

    Digest pharma at the ready as well as all the peptides from proforma !!

    Hope you’ve all had a good day and get ready for your New Year’s celebration

    So sorry to hear it

    I second Kuba’s question

    And to give context if you do, then she should also

    If the goal isnt to compete for sure there needs to be an understanding and balance to keep both sides happy but goals are attractive and being able to support them is very cool indeed

    Hey guys

    Hope you’re good !

    Rest day again for me on my week longs deload

    So I’m actually having a surgery , well 2 things going on this week get it all done in one so I can get back to the grind

    Had an issue with one of my boobs from my breast surgery in 2019 and since I’m not getting on stage it’s an ideal time to get it fixed. And I also had a foot surgery in 2018 when I had a car accident and there is some metal work in my foot that needs to get gone , so today and tomorrow will be zombie mode on operating tables lol

    GHK BPC all at the ready, I’ll see it as a deload and be back after 5 days … maybe 7 depending how sore I am

    Anyway have a great day all, off the theatre right now

    I’m
    With the guys – I personally always feel the day post legs my recovery is a lot more worse off than upper days which is why most of us will do lower last before a rest is done, there is always the ability to trial it for yourself though to see what you prefer

    Hey all

    Hope you’re good

    Rest day and heading to the gym for a training education day

    One of my clients wanted to progress her skill with upper body training and had asked if I’d support and always happy to share

    Always a nice way for me too with me not training upper body so much any more to refresh and get in to do some upper work!

    Look forward to doing a little more of that, I do like face to face contact , even though online is way more efficient and helps with it being cross county / work contact but it’s always nice to be able to have that in person approach

    When it comes to getting older, we for sure have to make sure that life is optimise to keep recovery good
    Quality supplements
    Quality recovery, including making sure sleep is at the far front of your mind
    Macro breakdown and definitely looking even closer into micro nutrients people often dismiss the need for fruit fruits and vegetable vegetables to support their hormones whether they are getting older or when they are not but definitely a huge importance on this if you aren’t already giving it a lot of thought
    Trading wise your body will tell you if you’ve been training for a long time if it does need to change ideally something that you can recover from progress with and if you are seeing no issues with that the minute don’t change it

    Keep on top of everything with your blood work as well it’ll show you any deficiencies and anything in terms of support whether that be podiatry or health supplementation that will support as well

    Keep on getting after it

    For me – I always start with a little bit of mobility when it comes to any press work – making sure that everything in terms of stability around the scapula feels set and warm

    Usually some internal and external cable or thera band work, into some light flies / laterals

    Aiming for this only to take around 5 to 10 minutes

    Biggest thing here comes to is your set up and for being done properly?
    And making sure that you take some time to actually do some warmup sets and taking your time with those, especially with your presses

    Hey guys, happy Boxing Day

    Rest day for me, but I will be going with Kuba into the gym , to help him in his push session

    A really nice morning , doing a little bit of extra clearing out always love a time of being able to do that … my car is incredibly full though haha

    And then tomorrow will be an awesome leg day together, which will be absolutely amazing. We train a little bit early on a leg day. So I’m sure that we will go and do something nice together afterwards, even if it’s just going and sitting in a coffee shop and enjoying a bit of time together.

    Perfect 👌🏽 maybe looking a little deeper into the calories adjusting them down now that you’ve hit this wall, if the goals to get leaner and get things building up look to drop your daily cals and that will help things shift
