Lower B R2 last night after an INSANE day at work. Manic and stressful, but I kept it under control. Proud of myself for that because past me would usually let that amount of stress get to me, ruin my day, my training, and even flair up my IBS.
Another little win. Another day won. These add up ?
So leaving work, I decided that I was going to hit an all time PB on the adductor. I’ve never gone above 80kg before, and last week on R1 I got 80kg x13. Felt lovely. (Was crippled the next day haha. )
100kg is what I wanted for my 1 load set. And 100kg is what I got. And not a dog shit set either. Controlled. Was tempted to up again but didn’t want to risk injury.
10 and bit weeks out.. starting to get ancy now. Don’t feel big enough, don’t feel lean enough, don’t feel good enough to step on stage. Part of me wants to take another year off to grow, but I know I need to step on stage this year.
Cardio done this morning on the spin bike. 40 mins fasted. Massage on my legs and glutes this evening. Badly needed. Looking forward to it. I need to change out the spin bike for something else. Looking into getting a crosstrainer for home or treadmill for incline walk. incline walk has always treated me well in the past.
In other news, I’ve decided to do a last minute trip to London for the 2Bros posing seminar in Hardpenden that @rheagayle will be teaching- I’m actually SO excited.. So just need to find a place to train at now on Saturday and Sunday._________________________________________

I’m agreement with the above on this one!! Gradually increases through adding into training day diet and leaving rest day as it is for the moment!! I’d say 500 cal increase as Hilly mentioned! And then monitor how you feel + look and scales weekly 🙂 xx

As Hilly has mentioned I would put your carb meals around training and then fat and pro for the remaining 2 meals 🙂

I wouldn’t ignore the issue, going for the process of elimination to find the route cause or maybe try to switch it for something else? also pushing back the time you eat from the time you are aiming to go to sleep x

My entry for yesterday has gone ? so I will double update you all!! Yesterday was rest day and also had an online doctor’s consultation as I haven’t been feeling 100%!! My symptoms haven’t been in line with covid so that is a breath of fresh air!!!
Other than that I am feeling good!!
Today I’m going in for pull! I feel better than I have done the past few days so I will give it shot and see how I get on!! Xx

Hello!
Do you feel like fasted cardio is more beneficial than doing it anytime during the day?_________________________________________

Hey Martin!
So we like to keep cardio as far away from training as we can at the moment!! I do prefer fasted, especially to help me feel a bit hungrier before I have my first meal!! We sometimes utilise cardio in the evenings as well! x

Have to agree with Clare here, as she has hit the nail on the head with that! Especially if you are feeling tighter/leaner this is also a sign that you are losing BF! The scales are just one tool, so try not to beat yourself up if weight doesn’t always drop x
