Hey Guys

Rest day for me –

Walking
Meal prepping
Food shop
Caring to Kuba as he’s been unwell
Cuddling with the dog
And preparing for the busiest day of the week tomorrow – it’ll be an upper day too so I’m excited for that!

I agree with Jordan

Lots of people push assistance hard without everything else in place – then once they are they can work up together in synergy

Rest day

And ready for a big leg session tomorrow

Day was usual –

Walking
Eating meal prepping
Working

Rinse and repeat

Not really , the straight leg aspect trains the hamstring more , you will get some adductor stim , but will get much more rear adductor from a stiff leg pull where the leg is slightly bent and then locked into place , the adductor has tons of leverage in that start point pull

I’m having a lot of trouble with adductor recovery even with 4 sleeps. For example, last workout I did one set of adductor, one set of hyperextensions and two sets of leg press (I still do it with emphasis on quads by putting my feet on the bottom of the platform and stance pretty close) and tomorrow I have to do the leg again and I have some slight doms. Do you think I should consider training rir 1 on the adductor machine?

For now you could take out of adductor work as you’ll get that from leg press anyway.

See how you go with that, more volume isn’t always more especially if you can’t recover from it

Last lower vol session today – thank god.

Used my cpap for the first time last night and got 8 hours of sleep, I don’t even remember the last time that happened.

Massage in the morning with will, body comp is a lot further a long than it was in my first prep and we have a lot of time left, looking forward to seeing my look on a Saturdays check in

Last rest day of the deload – exited to get back in the gym

Sleep was a little rough last night – I had a sleep study done and I have sleep apnea and my device came today so I’m excited to pop it on tonight and hopefully have a great sleep 🙂

Hoping you’ve all had a great day xx

Have you checked with a doc

Without any of us seeing it or knowing more we can’t really say,

Unless you’ve seen a change since changing something with your bodybuilding process like drugs etc?

Rest day today,

Had my hair done as I haven’t had it dyed for a little while

Kerry came before she’s headed to America Definitely the best look she’s had, it’ll be nice to go and stand against the girls over there as it’s definitely time for that

I agree with Jordan something you can stick to enjoy and actually do – hopefully you get some extra free time soon

Lower vol leg sesh.

Not super low vol as I just prefer more rest days than actual “lower vol” sessions on weeks needing to take a step back.

They aren’t the fun weeks but they are the necessary weeks.

Tomorrow is rest day and finally having my hair died ….. not happened since post comp on April there are hard roots

Ensure you’re doing some compound work as well as isolations and giving enough time to recover

Maybe adding them at the start of a session as a “priority” for a while may help

Jordan covers everything else

Diet break week commences

Which gives us 6 weeks of hard pushing before we peak into the O

Weight has moved a lot the last 10 days and fatigue has built a lot so a little re set before we push on again.

This is a week before planned, so timelines aren’t always set in stone
