Nothing much doing today. I’ve had a full days rest on the sofa with a few naps. Check in this morning saw me flat with my weight down AGAIN so again we eat up tonight. I will just go for double burger and fries from 5 guys, I see these as almost structured refeeds and allows me to gauge how much of a hole I’m in. Either way I would like to get out of this current hole now as it feels like I’ve been dropping back in it for far too many weeks now. I will complete my rest day cardio before the feed and work up more of an appetite. I tend to do cardio before my carb meals on rest day around 6pm

I’m not sure exactly but the recent podcast he has just done with jamie kuba and james gives you a good insight into where he is at in terms of his career and some hints towards the future. Its definitely worth a listen

I have a couple of pieces of pulse fitness in my gym. A pin loaded chest press and a pin loaded pull down machine. They are good solid pieces of kid and are perfect for the average gym goer. Other than that they need more weight on the stack for the stronger people.

An oral while pushing food up may cause you some loss of appetite or digestion problems so keep and eye on that. Also dropping slin then upping carbs at the same time may not be as beneficial as keeping the slin in initially then dropping it a week or 2 after to make sure you are still partitioning nutrients efficiently.

I think this is an individual thing. some people need coaches as they prefer to be lead and almost take the guessing work out of the process and can save a lot of time in the long run also been accountable to somebody can help keep you on track. However learning your own body and how you respond to a different stimulus will be very beneficial in the future but can take a lot of trial and error. For me I would start with a coach, learn and take information from them that you can take away in the future if you decide to go it alone.

Resting up today and tomorrow. This will allow me and kuba to fall back in line with Jamie’s split as he rested yesterday. The 2 days are needed, I feel like if I trained tomorrow I would just push myself into a bit of a hole and be playing catch up again. Trying to work out show dates now the calendar has been released. The plan this year is to have a very long and slow prep, I’m notorious for dropping weight, muscle and fullness in a very short period of time and the way we have been conducting this off season is almost like a pre prep prep if that makes sense. It will allow me to sail into prep and be pretty much stage ready without even realizing it from minor changes. I feel this approach will yield very good results. I’m thinking possibly a late 2bros qualifier and a the British final, amateur Olympia and maybe a few more pro qualifiers if the plan doesn’t work out. above all else the main goal is the pro card with a pro physique. Anything less is simply a failure in my eyes. So we keep working day in day out and go to lengths the other competitors wont.

This is so person dependent it’s hard to answer I have a lot of clients that need to go to 0 at some point, me personally I never go anywhere near 0 carbs or below 150 for that matter

MemberNovember 6, 2019 at 9:50 pm in reply to: Supplement to keep face young and gear to avoid?As Ryan says I believe this to have a large genetic component. Other factors too like sun exposure to what kind of job you work in and what you are exposed to daily. I believe steroids in general will make a difference in the aging process, some more than others possibly. This is a very interesting question though and it would be interesting to see what some of the other guys think and if there has been much research into this already

A decent hit of carbs and a versatile ingredient that goes with tons of protein/fat options – what’s not to love? Think the Atkins/Southbeach carb phobia still lurks around sometimes and the demonising of bread in the media, however as the ladies have already pointed out if it sits and digests well, then you’re all good. Bagels are a fab daily source and dense in macros. Question is – savoury bagel or sweet bagel?

If any carb source sits well with you use it. If it makes you feel or look watery I would avoid it. Personally for me bread and bagels in particular sit very well with me so I eat a tonne of them.

An extra thought tonight. As athletes no matter what level we are at its important not to get tied and cling to any one idea. It’s easy to tell ourselves something is working or good for us when infact it simply is not. We cant ignore the importance of rest. Without rest there is NO growth or progression no matter the volume or even amount of drugs. Be open to change, analyse data and feedback from log books, be honest with yourself and make the necessary changes.

legs tonight and it marks the end of the 3 days on 1 off. After chatting between kuba, jamie and jordan the amount of progress we are getting just simply is not worth it and we were progressing a lot more on the previous set up of PP rest L rest repeat which we will revert back to. Tonight was a deload leg session as we were all battered and still sore.
session was as follows
seated leg curl x 2
smith squat x 1
leg press x 2
single leg press x 1
leg ext x 1
leg curl x 2
banded RDL machine (glute focus)x2
adductor x 1
seated calves x 3Instagram: jimmytonk

With a shorter rope I find it hard to get the tricep fully short without having to round my shoulders or banging the rope into my hip. With the longer rope it allows me to get a better range of motion and easily past my hips allowing for me to get the tri fully short. As clare and meg say it all depends on the person and mechanics etc. Try both and whichever you feel hits you best run with that.

Be smart with your volume and recovery. I would reduce volume a tad and concentrate on keeping as strong as possible, taking out any harsh drop sets and grinder reps will also be beneficial towards recovery.

I’ve used it in the past in my intra drinks. It’s great for a pump but too much can play havoc on the guts
