    I also wish I could edit my post so I could correct “Fluxuations” to “Fluctuations” lol ?

    Haha no stress!! But yes I completely agree with the above here!! Weight fluctuations are very normal in not only prep but also in an off-season! There are many variables in which could affect this, stress, sleep, water, salt, cycle etc

    Weighing daily across the week and making note of this can help track, then you can reassess if maybe more food is needed, lower output etc

    Rest day today!! Had a great pull session yesterday at the Labrada gym!

    Today on the agenda is unpacking some more and I have 4 posing clients today!! I’m excited to be back settled now and into the groove of everything!! I found last week a little challenging due to living out of boxes before we moved here to Houston!

    Prep update – feeling good still so far! Weight is gradually making its way down after we made the few changes last week and I’m out of my head now ? cycle will also start soon we have been off since mid feb except for my trt!

    Back to training todayyyyyy!! Woke up feeling good and ready!! I have 2 posing clients this morning earlier than I expected as I kind of forget Texas is in a central time zone so I’m now 6 hours different from the UK rather than 5! But it only pulls them forward an hour which isn’t too bad!! After clients today I will then head to the gym and train! Really looking forward to training in a new environment now! Where I trained in Orlando was good but some equipment wasn’t what we needed / some was quite broken down! But today is Pull and I will send over Kuba pics of the equipment so if we need to make any changes to the plan we can!

  • Hey Fabrizio, if you find it easier to adhere this way then at the end of the day adherence is key to any plan! As long as you are hitting all of your meals/cals/macros in that day then you should be okay

    Hey Clark, could you let us know what type of machine it is whether it pin or plate loaded? if its plate loaded as Kam said you can try going up in smaller increments

    Travel day 2 underway early this morning! We stopped off last night to sleep and I actually had a pretty decent sleep! Early start this morning to crack out the final 12 hours of the drive to Houston! Taking lots of stops on the way so we can chill but also so I can get some steps in across the day! I can’t lie I’m really looking forward to arriving so that we can get settled and crack back on with everything

    Hey John, I very much agree with the above here, if you are having what you are having and still feeling the affects then I wouldn’t be too worried about having a break

    This will be a case of digging deep and remembering your why! You will get hungry, but utilizing things like coffee, water, and high volume foods will help
