Agree with Nathan here – Might just be an incorrect approach to the bracing itself or just general breathing through the set. A lot of people do forgot to breath when training , myself included in this, so it could be that thats causing the light headedness

Agree with Haider here – keep them in and it’ll help things tick along nicely, all other variables need to be bang on 🙂

Posterior done and dusted today! Very happy with how todays session went, was a little worried of my right quad going into it as felt a little twinge on the pendulum Saturday but it was all good, which was a boost in confidence so I’m happy with that! My posterior session looks like this
Lying hip flex 2 x 8-12
Single leg curl 2 x 8-12
Glute superset – abduction with smith thrust (abduction is 2 x 15-20 – glute thrust 2 x 8-12)
Leg press – 1 x 8-12 / 1 x 15-20
Hyperextension 2 x 8-12
Straight bar pullover – 2 x 8-12
T bar – 1 x 6-10 / 1 x 10-15
Pulldown – 2 x 8-12
A big old session but a bloody good one at that! Rest day tomorrow , with a massage in the morning then work in the afternoon at the warehouse – steady day but good day!

Agree with Kuba here – I would keep it in for body comp reasons !

Busy Monday today! but good day for sure!
Little Murphy pup got his jabs today so can finally get him outside to burn off some steam – which is going to be a blessing as hes a crazy little man at the moment ! So that is going to be a fun little side project!!
Push went super well this morning so that was a super good way to start the day ! Posterior tomorrow so we shall see how we go with that!

I would sip throughout the session as Claire states but would use a cyclic dextrin carbohydrate over maltodextrin – I love sustain, this sits well and doesn’t cause any digestive issues, as previously with maltodextrin its made me very bloated. So just be aware of that!

Rest day for me today guys! So nothing major to report just a steady day of chilling and getting ready for the week!

Favourite combo right now is the Caramel fudge performance protein with the Chocolate fudge CoR – that shit bangsssssss

Agree with Haider – I would book in to see a physio asap to ensure you don’t cause further injury to the area

Legs done today ! unfortunately my partner couldn’t come with me , which was a little blow as its been a longgg time I’ve trained legs without someone with me. I’ve always had a small mental block when it comes to training legs on my own but today went really well! I did have a slight twinge in my right hip on the pendulum however it’s feeling fine now so might have just been a little blip – So fingers crossed it wasn’t anything! Other than that everything felt really good and had a major pump throughout – so I’m super happy ! Rest day tomorrow and a day to chill to sort out the week ahead – busy week next week but a good one! onward we go!

Same with Kam here regarding PEDS but I’ve never taken injectables overseas , if I need to I would just have them sent beforehand , but I’ve never actually needed too. Everything else I’ve popped in my checked luggage in a pill pot, my bags have been searched every time I’ve been to the states and have had no issues

Pull done and dusted today ! Pretty steady session to be honest! Some numbers progressed some stayed the same, but I’m still super happy as mind to muscle connection with my back today was absolutely bang on (this is something I’ve really struggled with in previous years) so being able to hit each rep and truly connect with it is ace!
Tomorrow I’ve got an early session of legs with my partner then I’ll be spending the day with my family. Sounds a good day to me! Have a great weekend guys!

MemberJanuary 9, 2025 at 6:48 pm in reply to: Is 30 too old to pursue Competitive Bodybuilding and go for a Pro Card?Agree with Jordan here! Look at Samson – pretty sure he started in his late 20s and has made the most amount of progress in his 30s, which has now lead him to the title of Mr Olympia at the age of 38. Don’t let age define who you are.
