Couldn’t agree more with what’s been said above – I use dream sleep 30 mins prior to bed and recently I’ve also been using CBD to reduce anxiety/general day to day stress and get me into a better more relaxed state of mind for sleep.
As someone who’s struggled massively with their sleep CBD + Dream sleep has been a game changer .
I would always ensure that your sleep routine is bang on (what’s been mentioned above by other athlete) and that blue light exposure or anything overstimulating is reduced prior to bed
Hope this helps!

Evening team!
Hope everyone has had a lovely day today!
Rest day for me today, went and watched Manchester united Vs Tottenham Spurs which was ….eventful !!
Was a lovely day and nice to just switch off!
Excited for push tomorrow ! Very busy week this week doing multiple peaks for clients but I’m very exited for the show at the weekend!
Very blessed to be doing what I love everyday – onto another week!

Another SMASHING leg session in the bag today! I twinged my hip last week on the adductor, so was a little more cautious today, but despite that, once the session got rolling it was ON.
Checked in with Tom yesterday and its now the end of my cycle – we now move to 2mg of femtest weekly, GH 1iu EOD (the reason for EOD is because I get HORRENDOUS carpal tunnel with higher doses, which I confirmed even further this push aha! ) and that will be it till prep! I will get bloods done in 8 weeks to see where we are at , but for now – we enter natty jail.
This has hands down been the most successful push I’ve done in my bodybuilding career so far and I couldn’t be happier. Now to hold this, and it’s time to dance. I couldn’t be more excited for next years season, shows are yet to be confirmed but me and Tom have an idea on the one we want to do. As people know I am gunning for New York this year, so I’m planning on having that as my first show of the year, and I WANT TO WIN. So we’re going in all guns blazing.
Rest day tomorrow and then push on Monday! Another week to be better!

Agreed with everything above!
I think it’s completely normal for an individual to have one side slightly stronger then one – I typically start with the weaker side first and match with right.
I used to have awful imbalances due to previous hip issues but since doing more unilateral work in previous training phases its made a massive difference – so continue to do the uni work but start with the weaker side first

WHAT A DAY!
Upper today was simply sensational – as said in the previous log , headspace is well and truly on! All movements hit new numbers and I felt good doing it! So very happy!
Check in with the boss man tomorrow to see what the next moves are. I am coming to the end of my cycle now, in which I started tapering down this week. Then its time to get bloods done and the thats all cycles done until prep starts! Which is super exciting!
Tomorrow is pull and I’m excited for it! It’s normally legs but my training partner can’t make tomorrow so just switching around slightly – as I hate training legs on my own simply for a spotting purpose aha (I need to pay someone to be a full time spotter aha)
Into another day team!

I like to alternate between the two – just for variety a lot of the time!

Rest day done today! A lovely day of check ins and chilling with my partner (which is a rare occasion now a days! ) so that was lovely!
I’ve got upper to train tomorrow which I’m excited for , and a little travelling in the morning to see my first timer who’s coming up to 7 weeks out!
Another day to be better!

Hey Alfie ! In the training sessions are they mostly drill based? or do you typically have different aims for each sessions? So for example the first training sessions is predominantly fitness based with some skill based work at the end , and the other session is predominantly skill based. Or are they both very similar? do you do any S&C work with the club?

Just weigh out what I need and add boiling water to it 🙂 add as much water as needed to reach the desired consistency 🙂 but like Kam said – we all have our own way of doing things!

Posterior session done today and it was absolutely unbelievable. New numbers across all movements and head was well and truly on. During previous training sessions admittedly I’ve been getting distracted by messages from clients on my phone, if anyone truly knows me, knows that I really struggle to leave things alone and feel the need to message back straight away, and it was this that was distracting my sessions. So, in the last few sessions I’ve placed my phone on aeroplane mode and it’s enabled me to well and truly focus on my own training, and today the benefits of this truly shone through.
I had the best people around me today at the shed – being around people that are there to push me and spot me when needed is the best. We are all there to spot each other and cheer each other on, the gym was an absolute vibe today, and I’m so excited to complete my prep in this environment because I know it’ll bring the best out in me.

You are shoe KING after all 😛

I have some clients that do 1g per meal , some that do 2. It depends on the size of the individual and how much they sweat really! But I find between the 1-2g per meal a good range

What a weekend crew!
Client took the win in her class this weekend which was amazing! She got moved to athletic figure from toned and honestly seeing her on stage was the best given the circumstances that popped up during her prep this year! So super proud of her!
I have 5 ladies going in the ZF games in the next 2 weeks which is going to be another busy weekend but they’ve all worked so hard , so its going to be awesome to see them up on stage!
I had an absolutely banging push session today at ultraflex derby with a client – progressing on all movements which I’m feeling super confident about – excited to see what’s in store for the week!

hey team!
hope everyone has had an awesome day! Another weekend, another show! I have a client going in toned figure first timers and I couldnt be more excited to see her up on that stage tomorrow! I had pull this morning , nice and earlier which went very well – so I can’t complain!
Busy sunday going down tomorrow but I’m here for it!

I agree with the majority stated above
If you need to use it, you’re not cut out for this sport. End of. Too many people look for a shortcut on everything now a days, just embrace the hunger and move on.
I love the feeling of hunger tbh because I know when I’m hungry , I know my physique is changing and that is THE BEST!
