    Very solid session today. Did my rehab this AM after blasting my check ins off quic this AM – I wasn’t the laptop for 5am as Effie was up at 3:30am I made her a bottle whilst pheebs fed her. Then topped her up until about 4:30am had 30 mins back in bed chilling.

    Did my morning rehab. Ran some errands and then had an appointment with the health visitor. Effie is doing great. She is nearly back to birth weight like 40g off.

    Session today

    Low incline smith x 2 work (2 building)
    Upper back row x 2 work (2 building)
    Pec fly x 1 work (2 building)
    SA cable row x 2 work (1 building)
    SA cuffed lateral x 2 work (1 building)
    SA cuffed extension x 2 work (1 building)
    SA cable curl x 2 work (1 building)

    Very enjoyable session and glad to be putting 2 upper days in consistently now. And 3 rehab lower gym days. If I have the time I may do 3 upper days it still don’t want to take thenoiss and want to be as present as I can at home,

    Glutamine I think is very beneficial for gut health, recovery, and for me as it’s cheap not a waste of money.

    EAA’s you don’t need them on wake if your eating half an hour later? Probably not. Do you need them before bed probably not if your eating within close proximity.

    Where I think there very beneficial.

    Fasted training
    People struggling to hit protein targets and who are t eating g 4/5/6 meals a day.
    Intra training when you eat pre 60-90 mins before and your session are 90-120 mins.

    If you want to maximise everything they are very beneficial

    If you are eating 5 or 6 meals a day maybe not an essential

    Yes mate this is awesome and very well thought out, well done.

    Although there is still room to push the deficit – 28 weeks in a deficit with only 2 off plans is quite a while mentally and physically

    So Ineoild be looking at option 2

    Today was check ins. And then me and pheebs went to town to pick a few bits up for Effie. I cooked us a fillet steak and potatoe for tea. And we had watched a film and then Corinne dominate her first MMA bout against a good girl.

    Knees a touch tender from pushing the last couple of days but making strides forward daily

    298lbs this AM not weighed myself in a while, but thought I better start being accountable.

    As I can now move a little more. And I mean a little more.

    But big steps forward in terms of rehab.

    I did a leg press

    Apartial leg extension no full lockout or flexion yet.

    A lying ham curl.

    No load or 1 pin. But something I can progress I have now 3 lower rehab work days gym based and 2 days which is restore & ROM work.

    I will do 2-3 upper days too when I can around this, bike now up to 10 mins daily,

    So big big positives at 8 weeks tomorrow.

    Let’s get it

    Restore rehab day today. I’ve been doing my rehab all in one to save time rather than split up some days due to still trying to work out a routine that works with me and pheebs

    Podcast recording and then some progress with my knee so we will take that all day
