Hey big Dawg,

What does you arms and delts day look like?

Also curious if you feel you’ll regain all your previous size once you reintroduce anabolics at their former dosing? I’m sure a good amount of the loss during this time frame is just fullness from glycogen, etc…

Hey bud my arms and delts session is pretty low volume buddy. It’s actually just arms and calves but I threw some delts in this weekend as I was away at a hotel and didn’t have my usual set up,

Seated calves x 2
Standing calves x 2
JM press x 2
Cross body extension x 2
SA preacher x 2
Dual low cable curl x 2
Abs x 3

I mean I haven’t trained legs for nearly 3 months, and I have been off cycle since February so there will be some tissue lost.

But I think my body will be very responsive after this amount of time off. And I will respond very well once everything is done and dusted ready to start making progress again.

So yes the goal is to regain and surpass my previous level of muscle. I will have a good go regardless, I don’t think I will need to go as high for a while dosage wise. Which will be nice to get a response from less

I think both are great options. I prefer Greek yoghurt but I see know issue if digestion allows

Just pick movements that feel good, you can be as stable as possible and you can progress. You dont need to over complicate it.

If you havent got machines. Pick 1-2 presses, incline and flat, smith/BB/DB – then pick a dip and a fly seated, lying, standing cable or incline, flat DB

Great day today was really nice to spend some time with Pheebs this AM without the laptop.

We woke up had a coffee in bed, went to train arms & delts together in the hotel gym which was a health spa with a very decent set up perfect for arms & delts. then we had a steam room, sauna and then showered up had breakfast at the hotel and then we went for a walk around the grounds before heading home.

Finished work off and now time to chill and take the dogs out for another walk

First off, loving the podcast, it’s my favourite one out at the moment!

1) Do you implement GLP1s with your clients? If so, can you think of any scenario where you wouldn’t want to implement one during contest prep?

2) What are your top3 Tampa Pro predictions?

Great question bud and thankyou for watching! Much appreciated!

So GLP’s I was dead against them when they first came out just for the fact I have always thought that bodybuilding is about discipline and being able to
Suffer. And for me and most they can do that with great success. I have defo become more open minded. And there are certain cases I would implement them and have. 3 scenarios now all post show based to control the reverse rather than in prep.

But there is a case that I would use in prep to help with the deficit tolerance. Sleep retention and not waking up restless, stressed, sleepless night.

I wouldn’t just use it for the sake….

And someone who takes a lot of food to fill. May have some issues being able to one get the food in required and potentially slow down digestion in a load. So that would potentially become problematic. That’s why I’m trialling it myself.

For me 0.25mg EOD microdosed currently and have just started noticing the affects. Literally zero food noise. I eat because it’s time to eat and can easily finish my meals but I’m satiated. I could also easily take food down a large amount here and be comfortable.

Top 3 predictions for Tampa….wow what a show this is pretty impossible to get right.

But…..I think there may be a few surprises but I gonna give you top 5

I fully agree with Bish here…..

On everything he has said. I would look at nailing my routine, meal timings, training. and implement all the things Bish has said. Sack off the MK

Really good session again today at s20 – Pul & biceps. BW up a touch more again today but Im pretty sure its the Gh as I feel lighter and my stomach feels emptier and sharper. So Im not too concerned with BW. Im pretty sure Im due a drop soon.

Busiest check in day of the week for me today with competitors 20+ so train once all check ins are boxed off then I have just messages and from clips to go through of an evening.

Podcast recording tomorrow! and we go again!

Morning guys!

Push yesterday another solid session with the Dr…..Ive touched 3 plates on smith press 2 weeks in a row now for 4 reps which is the first time ive touched this weight with my pec/shoulder for years. I will scale the load back now a touch and try to rinse that 6-10 rep range and then re visit the 3 pps when I feel good and confident i can take 5 reps +

All other exercises performance and execution holding or improving.

Started getting to the gym round the corner for incline treadmill steps in the AM then back to the laptop for work,. Then take the dogs out a little later so I am getting un interupted work done fasted.

BW is up a touch with no changes other than GH has been upped to 8iu and also I have got hold of 14 boxes of omnitrope so that could be a factor in the slight weight increase. Im not worried. Body fat is still coming off slowly. So will just rinse this until Cal feels we need to pull down a touch more

If theres an exercise causing you issues. Don’t do it unless you strip it right back and re establish your training execution. Sometimes certain exercises wont suit your biomechanics. So pick something else that feels good
