6 days out to the debut
Weight at 90.3kg , I reckon I’ll be under 90kg in the morning which will be a new low.
In the 2018 season We loaded at 90kg, so we will probably load at 88kg given I got 2 hours posing followed by leg day Tomorrow which should leave me on another record low come Monday.
But let’s see what the boss does from there.
We trained chest focused push today. Very productive, PB on the first movement top set so I’ll take that extra rep.
The emphasis of training hard to the end with standard execution is very important , as Come loading time the muscles are primed well to absorb those carbs.
But by training hard I don’t mean running yourself to the ground and training to failure, but just doing enough each set and leaving a rep or 2 in the tank.
It’s important we start focusing on recovery and managing recovery and stress too.

7 days out
Weight at 90.9
We are still trying to eek out the last bit of detail as we go into a busy weekend of training. Got chest focused push tomorrow, posing with Rosie in ultra flex followed by a leg session on Sunday.
Day off today ….energy levels very low but the final stretch is now around the corner. So we keep marching confidently in the direction of our goals.
Early night for me as I want to maximise recovery and finish strong this weekend.

Thid is normal at this point, I’m on my 13th week of a 14 week dieting phase and going through the same.
You have to ask yourself, what’s more important? Getting a pump or the finished product?
Because this is just a phase you are passing by.
Only thing I can advice is adding pump agents . JP’s PREPARE should help 🙂tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

I’d personally hold off PPL for a bit and put it back in the tool box for later.
For your experience I don’t know if you’ve maximised full body splits , after which you’d move to upper/lower splits & eventually it’ll be a few years and you’d easily have put on another 30lbs of tissue as you now approach PPL.tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

8 days out , we had DENSITY DAY/ LEG DAY earlier this afternoon.
Calories have dropped again as we go for the last push, mainly around the pre,post & post post which has changed from 1 bagel to rice cakes.
Intra carbs are completely out except for 25g of sustain on leg day.
Jordan’s orders were to drop loading and take 180kg for the top set which I did and went for 10 reps leaving 2 in the tank. My top set was 241kg for 5 so significant drop, but necessary at this point, we don’t want to fry CNS & drive ourselves to the ground but rather focus on managing stress and fatigue.
So no set was taken to failure, and accuracy was once again the main goal with loading sub maximal.
Session remained the same though
RDL 5-9,10-12•seated lat pull down using prime D Handles 5-9,10-12
•extreme row (single arm) RP 10-6-4
•seated hammer leg press 1×30 reps
•standing ham curl 5-9,10-12
•adductor RP 12-8-6

9 days out….rest day today… a lot of work done running errands & training clients.
A bit of posing & a final treatment to wrap the day.
Fatigue has been better than expected.
DENSITY/LEG DAY tomorrow, so early bed in preparation. 🙂tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

You cannot fixate in sets yet.. why not work out how many times you can realistically go to the gym per week, that will in turn leave you with what split options to consider which will then in turn help work out the amount of volume per session then per week. Tweaks can then be made after

Rest day tomorrow, Jordan is happy till now but he wants me to grind a bit more and eek out more detail ..so we will see .
But he’s also mentioned a feed is due soon as the suspicion is I’m very flat.
In the meantime head down work and wait for instruction. 🙂tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

10 days to go…we haven’t made any dietary or assistance adjustments in the last 2 weeks.
Delts and tris today, was a tough one to start but once I stuck 3 scoops of PREPARE down my throat I was off.
Posted a clip of A1 on my insta story , very happy as I added a rep .
I am feeling the fatigue but I am also feeling very positive. I am on top of other chores and stuff that I have to do and I’ve got alarms set left right and centre. Jordan mentioned that
@corinne in the deep of prep is very productive and sharp doesn’t miss a thing she’s meant to do whether it’s business or any other tasks. I draw a lot of inspiration from that.
I feel the motivation should and can cross over to other parts of your life & make you not only productive but a better person.
So today’s session was
•45 degree smith press 1 x5-9,1-10-12
•assisted dips 1 x5-9,1-10-12
•single arm tricep press RP 8-7-4
•dual rope cable tricep extension 1×15
STRETCH TRICEPS
•pec Dec stretch set (5 sec pause in stretched position) 12-8-6
•15 degree cable lying cuff laterals 15-10-8
•single arm seated lateral prime machine 15-10-8
•bicep curl 2 x15tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

13 days out…energy at an all time low…walking is an effort, so much that a 15 minute walk took me 35 minutes this morning. Lol
But this is a good indicator that we are in the right spot at the right time .A lot of contest prep I feel is determined during this latter stages, when the tank is on empty, fatigue is high and the mind is playing games.
Question is do you ease your feet of the pedal & convince yourself you can get away with doing less do you put your foot down full throttle stick to the plan & carry on walking the designated path.. that answer for me is easy.
@samking104 we are taking everyday st a time and since I check in daily we asses all variables ahead buddy .Getting it done, you know the drill. The body will do everything in its power to slow you down and conserve any energy. So easy to think ‘ahhh I’ll just rest today, body needs it’. Often it is just a defence mechanism. Fine line between calling your body’s bluff and overreaching too far. If training’s still progressing and you’re recovering, man the f*ck up haha.
It is definitely the later stages of prep that really test you and you can easily slip from 1st to 5th (I not worse) in the last few weeks if you’re not careful. Less is more definitely and the stricter you are in your offseason makes prep that little bit easier.
Not long to go, but the mind is set so the body will follow – no doubt. Looking forward to this final stage and seeing the final result!

Sam, I have been preparing for this occasion for the last 6 years, this being the seventh.
The process is straight forward for me
Control your thoughts, and you’ll control your emotions
Control your emotions and you’ll control your actions
Control your actions and you’ll control your results… of course BB is subjective and the final result is out of your control , but making yourself undeniable is in your control:)tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

11 days I had a pep talk from Jordan yesterday that absolutely revitalised my energy levels .
Jordan is a top coach and his timing was very very impressive. He was bang on time and almost knew I needed this pep talk. Not that I was giving up, but he knew I needed a second wind to get me over the hill .
As I trained today I trained with purpose, (i always have) , but there was extra rage mixed with intense focus today.
I wasn’t taking no for an answer.
And I took pbs in almost every movement. Be it in extra reps or load. I was very happy with the session.
It consisted of
T bar row : 5-9 , 9-12•Atlantis pulldown with Prone D handles : 5-9 , 9-12
•Atlantis plate loaded seated row : 5-9 , 9-12
•single arm Atlantis pulldown : 1×12-15
•rear delts 3 x12
•bicep curl 1×5-9 1 RP 12-8-6
