    Busy day with consults ! Good to see so many people wanting to take action towards their goals! Also so good to see a couple of old clients coming back on board – thats always a really good thing to see! So lots of bits to do regarding coaching this morning then had a lovely evening/afternoon with my other half and animals – so can’t complain! itching to get back in the gym monday!

    Day one of deload done and already wanna be back in the gym aha – I really do find my mental clarity is so much better when I have training in play then when I don’t , but this deload is very much needed so its going to be done! Busy day with client check ins and a couple of meetings regarding performance nutrition , which was super interesting! Tomorrow I’ve got a shift at the warehouse and then home to do check ins as per usual ! Another day closer to the stage 🙂

    When it comes to the performance nutrition, are you planning in taking any courses or just do your own study and work with a mentor?[/quote]

    Heya Shane! I do currently have a mentor that I bounce things off of and I’m looking into doing the MAC nutrition course this year! So lots to look forward to and learn!

    Good evening team!

    So another day! Check in day and plan of action has been sent over for prep to begin on Monday – changes to diet etc are below!

    TD DIET

    *KCAL 3205*

    225 pro

    475 cho

    45 fat

    *NTD*

    KCAL 2805

    225 pro

    375 cho

    45 fat

    *STEP COUNT*

    12k per day

    No cardio

    *PED*

    1mg Femtest 3 x week

    1iu am 1iu pm Biolabs GH

    150mcg T4 per day

    A pretty hefty drop of food to begin with but I’m actually buzzing to get this started – so we should see a good hefty little drop in these first weeks. Training to stay the same, no need to change anything here yet.

    Here we go!

    1-2 times a night is not unusual tbh. I go about this, and much like Jordan a little more when I’m lean. I think this goes for alot of other people too.

    Good evening team!

    Hope all are well! Warehouse work ticked off, sorting house bits out after work then some client catch ups this evening – cannot wait for my bed tonight! Last check in before prep starts on Monday, so I will pop up everything from check in tomorrow – bloody exciting to get started! Into another day we go!

    Hi Damen !

    The pictures aren’t coming through – it’s worth popping them on a google drive and putting the link to the drive on here so we can see them and help 🙂

    Absolutely agree with Jordan here – Focus on getting into the gym and hitting a variety of rep ranges – don’t over complicate things. When I was 16 I was just moving weight until I couldn’t move it anymore – enjoy the process, eat your meals and train like a beast!

    January 20, 2025 at 6:27 pm in reply to: Exertion headaches on legpress

    Hi Max – I used to get this really bad until I focused on actually breathing properly through the set. I know it sounds silly but a lot of us get into the set and forget to breathe ! So next time you do your leg press set, really think about proper breathing technique. Also another one that might be worth mentioning is , a lot of people grip onto the handles for dear life – this creates a huge amount of tension through the traps and into the neck , so this could also be the reason for the headaches, so try not to grip too hard if this is something you do.

    Much like Claire said it could also be related to things like blood pressure, so be sure to get that checked if you can.

    I always ensure (as meg has mentioned) that brace is tight and aggression towards the movement is there. Give yourself some time to truly lock yourself into the set.

    Really good day all around today! Legs this morning was brilliant – was a little worried about my knees being a little too sore for some movements but with a few more warm up sets – it was good ! Now time for a deload , let everything heal up and get ready for prep to start on the 27th.

    Can take anytime during the day – however much like Kuba said – you don’t want to take both too much. If I’m training late I’ll have unwind , if not I’ll use deep sleep pre bed 🙂

    Heya team! Hope everyone is good, today ended up being a rest day, as I woke up still feeling pretty rough, so legs tomorrow and I’m feeling ready for it! Dosed up on unwind today to ease how I was feeling and I’m feeling much better.

    Last week of offseason and then it’s game time!
