    I would look to hold performance and intensity as long as possible. You can scale back volume slightly to any big compounds after 2 or 3 weeks if recovery starts to suffer. Dont take and forced reps or 50/50 reps

    295.6lbs this AM new low. average of 3lbs last week. Positive is I was able to get back on the bike this AM pain free for 20 mins cardio. Great push session in the books. Meeting with accountant, then mowed the grass and did the weeding.

    Lots of sorting to do this week as Im changing a few things over with the companies and accounts. Which I hate doing. But needs must. Pull on the cards tomorrow! Looking forward to getting back in the gym!

    Happy sunday guys!

    Really nice day today. Took the dogs out this AM after a few client check ins I tend not to do loads of works sundays but with prep clients I do like to touch base where needed and guys who are overseas like Australian clients.

    Then went to play golf with my Nephew and Dad which was really nice to spend some time together. I wasn’t as bad as I thought after not playing for years. My back my have other ideas tomorrow. But played some really nice shots. A few horrendous shots but its just practise!

    Steps all boxed off early so just chill now and ready for another big week in the books!

    I agree with Jordan. You have either got to be good at what you do, relatable, or give value to people through information.

    So as Jordan says just get fucking good, and smart, and be yourself

    Firstly hats off for the commitment mate to your goals. Royal marines commando is no joke in terms of the training you will go through. Personally I would look at cutting your volume down to 8-12 work sets per session, or dropping to 4 sessions. Upper/lower giving yourself an extra rest day to just do your hardest conditioning session.

    Your priority is making sure you are ready to take on and pass what they have to throw at you.

    If you not recovering and your smashed all the time your not growing bud, So you have got to be more sensible here with your approach. You can defo maintain and even build some muscle as long as recovery is managed properly and your fuelling yourself properly.

    So there needs to be certain things that come as a priority. Make sure all other aspects are on point like, sleep, hydration, nutrition. maybe schedule deloads where needed. But I would defo advise adjusting volume even more. Don’t take any sets past failure. That are going to fry you for little return

    This is completely dependant on split, volume, frequency, recovery capabilities. Some of us will have 1,2,3 maybe 4 sets dependant on exercise, session, needs.

    So its very difficult to say. We may all train slightly differently too. Higher volume pyramid sets, where all are classed as working sets.

    Or lower volume 1-2 working sets with feeder/warm up sets to get ready for the set that dont take too much from you for the actually all out working set

    I agree with Jordan here. I have adapted what fits me the best over the years Ive tried higher protein, Ive tried lower protein, I now like a balance of around 1.25g per lb of BW for some I push it to 1.5g per lb with clients depending on size and digestion.

    The rest of your calories will come from what you feel and perform best with. I like moderate fats around 0.3g per lb of bodyweight sometime depending on the physique up 0.5g per lb of BW

    Then Carbs based on needs depending on the foods. But always the majority around the workout window

    completely dependant what your goals are buddy?

    For me TRT for well being alongside some GH, BPC, TB etc at 55 is absolutely what I will be doing…..

    I will maybe dependant where I am still in my journey still do some smaller low dose cycles here an there, TRT+ maybe a little Mast/Primo + low dose nandrolone. around 500mg total is what I would be doing personally.

    But again this is all very person, goal, bloodwork, risk/reward dependant
