    Evening guys,

    Just landed back from Sweden 🇸🇪 fantastic trip to see team gasp HQ and hang with some fantastic athletes and like minded people. Also watch the and see my client take a deserved 3rd place. He learnt a lot this weekend. About what needs to be done to be actually ready to be a pro.

    Its been a tough weekend work wise managing 6 competitors over the weekend peaking them all and setting post show plans up for holst still having normal workload and being present for sponsors in Sweden has me absolutely exhausted. So I’m ready for my routine Again more than ever if I’m honest.

    But grateful for the position I’m in. I’ve set some new boundaries for working hours because sometimes I’m not strict enough with clients and it can lead to me still working late at night and will lead to burnout. So from 7:30pm onwards no questions or messages will be answered unless I have asked for competitors to check in.

    New check in protocol is in place.

    Sundays completely off unless competitors are needing to check in.

    I need some me time to be an athlete and also a partner to pheebs and friend.

    That’s what will result me being the best coach I can be.

    Hope your staffies ok champ, no lasting effects and whatever was causing the issues has now gone?

    Caught up on the latest BDC this morning whilst doing cardio, each one just gets better.

    Looking forward to you guys going on tour – any plans to visit the South West (UK)?

    There may be some plans buddy! We’re going to see what we can do about setting it up so we can maybe do live podcast too so listeners can get involved see how we can work it logistically and cost wise

    Evening guys….sorry I forgot to post last night. It was a mental day. At the pro Quskifier in Sweden + 6 other lads competing back home in the UK

    So after the show and food I was at the laptop doing post show updates and fell asleep at the laptop until 1am and then went to bed.

    Today has been great meet up at gasp HQ and dinner with team gasp + training at delta gym with Brett, hunter, Carlos & branch + all the team! It’s been pretty surreal and I’m grateful to be doing what I love.

    This weekends results

    2 x class wins
    4 x 2nds
    1 x 3rd
    1 x NABBA PRO CARD

    Not had a client out of the top 3 this year. Season is off to a flyer!

    Cant wait to get back to routine now though!

    The guys have nailed it and I think Louis thought process is great. Main focus is controlling the load your lifting 🎯

    Looooong day travelling just got in bed. It’s been hectic. But we’re sorted. Trained and settled for a good sleep.

    Took Kyle for a session. Popped him in the sauna for 20 mins he’s had pretty low food today. For him 350g as he ate abit too much post show. Weight still hasn’t come back down. Which is due to fatigue now back to back peaks 4 flights, and the body probably wanting to play ball. But we’re gonna do what is required to get the job done.

    Speak tomorrow guys!

    Pull day today. Work is very busy with prep clients 5 competing this weekend so managing them daily into the show on top of normal check ins, training and new starters is a task but I love it.

    And today’s session was great.

    SA pull-down x 2
    TBAR row x 2 + Kelso shrugs to failure
    SA row x 2
    Prime mid back row x 2
    Rear delt fly
    Prime D handle curl
    Seated toe press

    3 sets 10-15 combo set

    The had to take our little dog to the vet’s this even she looked like she was choking and not breathing properly so I had to put my fingers down her throat. Risky business with a Staffy but she was good and I likely dislodged whatever was stuck as I went all the way to be back of her throat. Bless her. We then took her to out of hours vet’s alto have her checked. She gets to sleep with us tonight.

    Busy day tomorrow!

    Another crazy day. I’m defo running the redline at the minute but when your passionate about the industry it’s hard not too. I just need to be a little more selfish with my time and own progress. As for the busy weekend and then a seminar today for gasp and lots of clients to check in I was up at 5:30 again and then didn’t get back until 3 with more work to do so I have taken a rest day and will hit pull tomorrow.

    Just going to chill for an hour with pheebs and get an early night ready to go again!!!

    There’s no reason why you can’t. Depends on what context you mean sensible?

    It’s not my first choice. But If your struggling to find DHT derivatives then it could be an option.

    But do you know tolerate it well? How does it was affect your oestrogen levels, how does it make you feel? How does it make you look? What ratios have you used?

    If I had not trialled it before it’s defo not something I would be just trying in a prep without knowing previous responses.

    If you can get hold of masteron and primo and feel good on those then do that.

    Mental day today a long long day but a rewarding one.

    Travelled down to near Glastonbury for a client show. It’s long but I try to get to get to at least 1 of each clients shows a season if I can was just unlucky this one was a way away. Set off at 5:30am

    He took a class win novice and went into the overall which I left him with his POA and got back off home. He was compared with the winner and narrowly missed out.

    Another one of team was in wales and took a class win in class 1 bodybuilding and went into the overall getting 2nd in the overall 1 point decision but got awarded a Fit X pro card.

    Then Kyle last off at the pro qualifier in Spain class win from 7 in men’s physique class D and a 1 point decision just missed the pro card in the overall!

    But 3 big wins. A great day but very taxing. But we love it!

    Pull tomorrow at a gym in derby whilst hosting a posing seminar.

    So another busy day with AM check ins!
