237.5 today so a little below stage weight now

Chris has kept the plan the same. Keep me somewhat depleted so I soak up the food as it goes up in next couple days.

I don’t actually feel I need a lot of food to fill out right now. Even on just 300 carbs I don’t feel too flat. Which is good as I prefer to not eat a ton of food going into a show. Just not as safe or predictable

So 300 carbs today. No cardio. 12.5 t3.

Mot c , 5 amino 1mq , and slu are helping me stay energised and sane

Light legs today. Tomorrow will be upper pump. Then Friday is rest day for a Saturday snow

Legs and ABs

Laying ham curls 2 x 8-12

Stand in ham curls 2 x 6-10

Seated ham curls 2 x 8-10

Leg press 2 x 8-12

Smith squats 2 x 8-12

Leg extensions 3 x 10-15

Adductors 1 x 15

Abductors 1 x 13

Rope Ab crunches 3 x 8-12

Are you still taking Cardarine? Have you felt anything from it other than a bit longer endurance?[/quote]
Yes still taking. Little higher body temp maybe. But mainly endurance

It’s insane how your body keeps responding to everything. Show after show, peak after peak. Absolutely insane. You’ve brought an even better physique this time. And now on to the next show haha. Brutal!

Are you going to keep competing, or will you take a break at some point lol

Haha I think I’m just a bit crazy mate. But yeah to be honest I’m surprised I’ve responded like this too. In the past I’d do 1 or 2 shows and I was totally done for the year.

This Saturday will be my last show till next year for sure. 8 is enough I think lol

[Sasan Heirati]

I’d opt for Retatrutide. I know you say you can manage the food focus , the Reta does way more than just that. I think shutting down food focus has a very calming / mentally positive effect. You’ll know what I mean when you feel it.
As well as , and more importantly for pushing food / peds, Reta will keep you very insulin sensitive, making your body more efficient at utilising food therefore allowing you to gain muscle more efficiently on less food, mitigates fat gain, and helps reduce fatty liver and other health makers including lipids , inflammation and others. Keeping you healthier. Last but got least it will enhance the effects of gh and other peds

It’s a no brainer at the moment for what we do.

To add to that, you can use MOT c or SLU to enhance metabolic which again makes the process more efficient

238.9 today ; 4 days out from the British Grand Prix

Olympia done! What an incredible experience that was. The way they treated us, the fans, the theatrics and production on stage was all just mind blowing. It felt like I was in a dream , and now I’ve woken up back home lol

I ended in around 236-237 on stage. With noticeable improvements to my arm fulness as well as my rear double bicep
Shot. I no losing lat size too. So considering I’ve been prepping for majority of the year I’m happy with this

It shows how just make adjustments to training alone can help improve the physique. Even if not in a calorie surplus. Although my little 6 week rebound helped a lot I’m sure

Carbs stayed fairly steady around 600-700 daily. Fluid was at 2.5 litres daily. Use 12.5 aldactone on 3 days. And 1/2 a diazide on the morning of the show.

So now the focus is the British Grand Prix this Saturday

Right now carbs are down to 300. Fluid and salt are normal intake.

Yesterday trained chest. Today back. Light ish work focusing more on pump. The jet lag is real and having already peak last week I can’t risk anything in the gym

[Sasan Heirati]

Loved the olympia look, so clean and polished! I’ll be in the crowd and rooting for you at the British. Really want you to get that early olympia qualification, have a prolonged off season and make some noise in 2026!

Thanks Jordan! I was very happy with the look and improvements I’ve made.
Gonna try bring and when better look for the British this Saturday. Hopefully get to meet you buddy : )

[Sasan Heirati]

Hey Sas, just want to say best of luck to you this weekend! As I’ve said in here before I’ve been keeping up to date with your log all through your prep this year and it’s been very fucking cool to see.

I can’t wait to see the final form you’ll be bringing to the Olympia stage!

Thanks Joe! I was super happy with my look and placing

[Sasan Heirati]

So 1 day out. (Well it’s 3am here lol) Waking up around 237-238 which is perfect since dropping gh I still look full. Aim to keep it at this weight and just eat into the show

Did an upper body pump yesterday and had the athletes meeting too.

Body clock is all over the place but it’s not doing me any harm at all.

Carbs at around 600, low protein low fat so nothing crazy

Today will probably be similar but Chris looks at me every 2 meals then decides.

Vegas is very cool. Feel like it’s awake 24/7 lol.

[Sasan Heirati]

3 days out. So I should be writing this in vegas but my airline had different plans lol. Due to delays I missed my connecting flight so I’m stuck in Amsterdam airport and have been since yesterday. Next flight to vegas is tonight.

No luggage so no meals , no scales etc.

This has happened to me before this summer and I won that show being Toronto.

Times like this , I see a lot of guys freak out and panic. I think staying relaxed and just focusing on what you can do rather can’t helps a lot. I thrive under pressure and disaster so no doubt I’ll still be at my best 🙂

So not much to report. Been getting protein /veg meals when I can but options aren’t great at this hotel they’ve put me in.

Will just do my work. Work on learning and reading more on a different venture I’ve been focusing on the wait for my flight this evening

Will report back when when I’m hopefully in vegas

I travel a lot, and the easiest way I’ve found to eat in your situation is to stop by a grocery store and grab 0% Greek yogurt, pre-cooked chicken breast, rice cakes, and some 90/10 dark chocolate. The packaging usually lists how much protein is in the whole pack of chicken (usually around 20–30g), and it’s easy to track rice cakes and chocolate squares by piece. I’m sure you’ve already figured most of this out, but this method makes it super simple to track without a food scale.[/quote]
That’s a good idea. I was in sire at the airport so there wasn’t much by way of grocery stores. I had full access to buffet all day just chicken , veggies and some bread

[Sasan Heirati]

Looking crazy in your last post Sas. Looks like the triceps are holding up real nice and pop which I feel tend to dissappear normally for you.

Thanks mate yes they do disappear for me especially on stage. They’re coming back up, but they still won’t be that impressive. After this next odd season they should look much fuller

[Sasan Heirati]

Like Clare said that’s a good number to start with then see how you feel, do you digest it well, how’s your recovery from training, some people need
More some don’t need much. And also depends how high your carbs are. I keep it constant at around 1.5g per lb of body weight. Been as high as 2.5 per lb also, and that felt good for me too but most can’t digest that much very comfortably

Have a safe flight Sas!! Dreams come true this weekend

Thanks bud !

Holding 246 last couple days.

Chris has reduce carbs down to 120g today as I travel to vegas
Yesterday carbs were 320
12.5 t3

Last session on home soil yesterday was back at 5 days out and it felt pretty good.
6 movements. 3 sets each. And some abs.

Crazy how training hasn’t dropped at all this prep been with training 6 days per week for the most part

And also considering I’ve been on contest prep 8 out of the 9 months this year.

Always, long day of flying today so no training.

I’ll report back to you guys from vegas 🙂

I’m not 100% of they help arthritis directly but BPC 157 and TB500 do wonders for joint / trauma / injury issues. Maybe worth taking a look into those two
