happy easter everyone! I hope you’ve all had a wonderful weekend! Today was a rest day after moving my upper session from today to do yesterday – so today has been a day of catching up and getting new starters ready for the week! I have legs in the morning which I’m very excited for – so should be good!

Woke up and posterior was on the cards!! Very happy with everything in that session , every thing felt bang on and exactly as it should be! Tomorrow is supposed to be a rest day but I’ve moved upper forward by a day due to social commitments – so already excited to get in the gym! 👌

I take it alongside my higher carbohydrate days – as stated by other athletes 1 cap per 50g is ideal! 🙂
-
Push today and another steady session in the bag! Really feel like I’m getting the most out of my pressing at the moment, really focusing on pausing in the stretch and then driving up from that deep point – can definitely feel a difference in engagement from this! Out for my offplan meal with the partner tonight which I’m looking forward too!

A lot of people seem to think that muscle growth happens in a short time frame – this isn’t the case – muscle growth takes years of consistency with meals, sessions and recovery. Be patient and focusing on executing the plan daily and growth will come your way 🙂

Rest day done and dusted! check in with cal was good today! hes very happy with where I am and how I’m looking so no changes need to be made to the plan 🙂 tomorrow morning I have push which is always a mega session, then work in the warehouse and client check ins in the afternoon!

The strawberry cheesecake is UNBELIEVABLE – I was advised to try this one (I’m more of a chocolate whey girl myself) from Cody who works in the warehouse and honestly, its hands down one of the best flavours JP does, so out of the three I would get the cheesecake.

I’ve always kept GH in during my preps and have never had issues with it causing water retention – like Kuba mentioned it’s more likely a body fat issues over a water retention one. Give yourself a little more time to ensure that you’re ready early so you have time to play around with peaking methods etc

Good evening team! I hope you’re all well! another busy day today ! pull this morning , warehouse during the day , then check ins this evening! Pull was good generally seeing progression across the board , apart from the prime extreme row, this movement seems to be a little stubborn atm so have fed this back to cal, it might have been just one of those sessions so might need to reassess after another approach but we shall see what cal says in check in tomorrow! Rest day tomorrow, massage in the morning then client calls in the evening!

I would actually have you put your phone down and start doing things like the reading earlier. I have found a huge difference in reading prior to bed but for a good hour or so – this truly allows me to switch off. Also much like Chloe asked , what time are you cutting off caffeine? and also – even if you’re doing all this , what is your day to day stress levels like? (as we all know stress can really hit things like sleep) Because sometimes if you’re not sorting out the issue at the source then adding things on top isn’t going to help, so I would deffo have a more deeper look into how your general stress levels are.

Starting the week off with a rest day! Check in was done with cal yesterday and feedback was good! No changes to current set up , just ticking along and doing the same thing as it’s what is working!! If it aint broke don’t fix it! I have pull in the morning before work , then a day spent with the team doing orders , and in the afternoon check ins and coaching work – so a good day has been had and another one is coming up tomorrow 🙂
-
Agreed with the above – sounds like things are moving nicely! Run another high day and see what the outcome is !

Another leg session done and dusted and everything ticked along very well! took me a little time to switch on today after a poor nights sleep (our little pup is a little sicky atm so he was up during the night ) but once I was in it , I was IN. Awaiting check in from cal, but I can imagine we’ll keep everything as is. Remainder of the day spent with my beautiful partner and going off coffee , which I’m buzzing for. Into another week we go!

I find that doing a 3 to 1 ratio (CoR to water) on it is perfect. So for example if you’ve got 10g CoR put 30g water in , pop in the microwave for like 45-60 seconds , take out and mix, then return to microwave and repeat until desired consistency is reached. This when dieting is the best, in my off-season I simply just throw some boiling water from the kettle in and eat it lumpy or not aha
