I’m doing…. upper/lower/off/upper/off/lower/off
It’s ok actually. A lot of work to get through, but benefit to this is the huge calorie burn from the sessions. I was surprised how fresh I was for training back after push work.
I don’t think frequency is to little. I train each muscle more often now than when on PPL. But volume has had to very slightly reduce.
Prefer Pull/Push/off/Legs/off repeat but due to family commitments and wanting to be in more a fixed schedule U/L is a good choice.

Hi Jordan, I was talking more over the last few years you’ve been doing videos… not seen you do them often
-
Dan, not Jordan but i have the in ear beats and think they’re awesome.
They never fall out for me personally, and great for blocking out back ground noise.Only problem is when doing stuff like over head DB extension the volume button can get trapped between my neck and shoulder. Meaning it all, either goes quiet, or i have bleeding ears by the end of the set! That’s the only negative, and a wiggle of the chin normally solves it! haha
Jordan, not seen you do many single arm dumb bell rows before. Any reason? I love em. Do you feel they would be a good compound movement along with T-Bars, Barbell rows etc? Or more a “after those kind of moves” movement?

I never really got an appetite increase on EQ. Even at 750mg a week. As I said to Jordan it seems to be really good at fullness for me. Gives a very nice round look at lower body fats when dieting.

They sell ground rice in Waitrose and Sainsburys.
Also rice flakes are an alternative to Oats, and take flavor quite well. Tesco, Sainsburys, Waitrose all sell this. -
I like to stay in a small surplus.
So ive been dieting, when i stopped i dropped the nasty stuff like tren and orals. Then for 3-4 weeks i’ve just ran 450mg test while i bring calories up (still not gained any weight). After this i’ll cruise. When cruising i generally tidy up if between push ups. This way i’m more primed for more food and drugs to go in. When already lean i’ll just maintain really. But still in a surplus as tissue and strength can still be improved. Just not at the rate of being on a full cycle.
-
Well you wont die so thats a bonus. Just cruise on 125mg as soon as you have the test. No big deal. Just make sure next time if you plan on going on for 16 weeks. Make sure you actually have 16-20 weeks worth of drugs.

I never pin delts as a while back I did a shot that caused what was like half a golf ball of fluid under the skin on the delt. Looked horrible. No pain after the initial PIP. Any way it took a couple of weeks or more and proper freaked me out.
Long story short it did a delt jab again on Thursday and today I have another half a golf ball of fluid on my delt. It’s always right before holiday as well. Shirt on for 10 days in 30 degree heat again!!! This time no more delt jabs. They don’t like oil. Haha

Fillet is king anyway. 90% of the steak I eat is fillet or chateuxbriand, but heard everyone say skirt has a great flavour so gave it a go. If only they could reduce the price of fillet by a third…. and I get meat cheap as I’m a farm boy….
Edit- boy that closing comment sounds dodgy…
-
I’ve got 3 years until I turn 35. I’ll take this stuff semi serious until then. Then no more drugs, train as I feel and rock the dad bod…… but with hair growth galore…
Can’t wait. 🙂
I thought it was quite fatty. More so than fillet….

Cheese Cake by Corinne?
Chicken Pizza by Corinne? Chicken = gains -
I’m worn out after kicking up anything over 50kg! Seen videos of Dan Green kneeing up 70s like its no problem. Then pressing it for like 4 x 15. haha
-
Every day is cheat meal day….. unless dieting, then its only once or twice a week.
As for timing. Its very important to have it when you want it. I prefer between the hours of 6am and 10pm. But sometimes, if im on a night out, i may be finishing the cheese course beyond this time…. but then i would lay in later to balance this out.
Seriously if you want to eat something off plan just eat it. I’ve been eating chunks of birthday cake for 6 days straight. 😉

Hi Luke. Bit of down time will be a blessing. Eat some great food, get away with the Mrs and just train when you want. You’ll be back at it in no time. Or you’ll think fuk all this dieting/training shit. Im just going to drink beer, eat cottage pie and get a Dad bod. Either are good choices.
Also if i remember from seeing something on insta you like a skirt steak? What fat to protein ratio do you guess it is? 2/1 pro/fat? Do you even care? haha

I control the negative as best as possible, pause slightly at the bottom for a split second, and drive up making sure i feel the muscle i’m working do the majority of it. Thats all. No worry about rep speed or keeping constant tension or anything. Sometime on hack squats i may need to take a few breaths before getting a couple more reps. As long as those reps are quality i’ll keep going. If im starting to fall forward on squats or my glutes are working more i stop.
Control, pause, drive (dont throw), and on some stuff a squeeze. Thats all.
Yeah Jordan says feel the tension in the right place. Thats the aim. But the goal is to take that tension and increase it while keeping good form. When i start a new split or reset/change my lifts i always go a bit lighter than i think i can do. That way form is perfect from the start, then i build on that until i feel form has gone, and im just chucking weight. Then i’ll lower the weight and build back up with better form, or i’ll swap the exercise.
As for bicep iso before a compound. Form is most important on biceps and most agree that. So hammer them with perfect execution with something like preacher curls. Then finish them with some heavy bar curls. Still keeping form tight and controlling the negative of course. Then just a little something to torch my girly forearms.
