No weight today as no check in. Feel leaner. So we’ll see what Chris says tomorrow
Fantastic quads session. Knees holding it together quite well. My legs look and feel bigger then ever
My thoughts today… I guess just pure positivity. No stress in regards to my prep, no doubts or worries , just pure hunger to be the absolute best I can be. Not just for the Olympia for in every part of my life
It’s important to think like this all the time. Thoughts turn into actions , the mind is so powerful. Only lazy people would disagree

Feel much tighter today. Chris is happy, he said improvements in all poses

So yesterday was rest day and check in.
I was 258.5.Chris surprised me with his reply as always something I didn’t expect lol, cheat meal on a rest day. He’s feeding the momentum. I’m getting harder every day so he’s capitalising on it and feeding my metabolism
Tripe cheese burger and a very large fires in place of meal 5. I’m
Not hungry or craving anything but it was nice to relax with it with my Mrs especially at the end of a rest dayI’ll update today’s body weight and look later today

No weight today as no check in. Feel like I’m more or less maintaining here right now physique wise but training is progressing for sure. But that’s not my decision to make, see what Chris says at tomorrow’s check in.
Hamstrings and glutes today went really well. Getting stronger on RDL’s.
Nothing else to really update on. The 600 carbs going down easy, not starving but get hungry enough at meal time to enjoy the food.

MemberAugust 16, 2025 at 4:10 pm in reply to: Adjusting training due to knee problem.I would attack that leg extension within the range that doesn’t hurt yes. And
Attack it hard, super hard contractions with plenty of time under tension, progress strength in this fashion across a wide rep range i guarantee your quads will grow. I’ve been fighting knee pain for 12 years -
258 today, still the same weight. So we’ll see what Chris does. With him you never know but considering how I look (improved) he could either give me a higher calorie day since we can afford to , let it recharge boost things along OR dig a little deeper and cut back the food again.
Either way will work. I’d prefer less food haha
Chest , side delts and triceps today with calves. Superb again. Strength up , pumps were crazy , I feel awesome.
No cardio is definitely my fav kinda prep , the training performance just stays on much higher level and so does the fulness . See how long it lasts

258 today so weight held after a day of going back up to 600 carbs.
I definitely feel leaner consistently now. It’s a nice lean, not tired / hungry. Sleep is perfect , I feel agile, or should I say more mobile haha
But the best part is I feel big. Like full and round all the time and usually I’m more on the flat side when I leaning out at this pace
Lovely stuff
600 carbs going down easy for now. Training feels excellent. And I feel healthy
Chris is very happy.
I check in again tomorrow
Back day #2 of the week went down great. Feel stronger for sure.
I could make up a better prep so far haha and I’m probably jinxing myself lol

So dropped down to 258 yesterday. Didn’t look or feel flat but Chris has put the 120g carbs back into the diet so back up to 600g carbs now. I was enjoying the lower food lol especially in this heat but needs must
Possibly just to slow the loss down for a few days. I’ve leaned out quite a lot over the last 7 days. Lot of new vascularity, drier thinner look to the skin etc
Chris is happy I’m happy. I feel great here at 258-260, I feel still relatively big but lean now which is nice
Quads today was another great session. Knees are still behaving so I was able to load up on leg extensions and leg presses.
Easy smooth sailing for now

259.6 today so down a bit after rest day yesterday. Went to tatton park and did this near hunt thing for the kids, ended up doing about 10k steps which is way above my daily average since I barely do 6 ish haha. But I loved every second and wouldn’t change it.
I don’t ever let things like that put me off , even though I’m getting ready for the Olympia , I don’t think extra activity hurts. Infact i was stronger stronger in the gym today: and Chris said I look much leaner.
A fun time with my family only helps me mentally and therefor physically so I try got to shy away from stuff like that.
Anyway Chris is happy with today’s pics. Checking in again tomorrow
Back training today felt awesome.
Contemplating pulling biceps and triceps out of back and chest days and having an arm day put back in but not 100% sure yet. Arms look deflated to me right now but could be that I’m flat.

Back down to 260 today
Yesterday was lats rear delts biceps abs. Felt very good
Chris was happy with yesterday’s pics, check in again tomorrow.
The food cut has kicked in nicely, definitely feel tighter and hunger kicking up a bit more throughout the day which is quite nice actually. I love being in this place. Food isn’t super filling, and appetite is peaking through. What I won’t enjoy is a high food day haha give me less food any day
Rest day today. Family day out at the park and relaxing tonight. Some work, and maybe take the McLaren out for a spirited drive since I cleaned it last night.
All in all very happy
8 weeks 5 days out

261 lbs today so up a little bit oddly even with the cut in food.
Either way Chris is happy with the pics so no changes. I check in again with him tomorrow
Superb session today. Did push. As mentioned I’ve dropped most my movements down to 1 work set again and strength is flying back in a matter of days.

I would always try keep the lower GI , slow digesting ; more satiating carb in as long as possible so I’d start with cutting fruits down but keep a little in maybe.
Then it’s personal preference after that. I love oats so I cut rice etc out before lowering oats.
