    This thread is what it’s all about…..Jordan has nailed it and it was probably the acceptance and kicknionthenarsenyiu needed to think exactly that “fuck it” lets get to work!

    and we are back home…..after another long day of travel.

    Rest day tomorrow. Up for cardio so will be 3 full days rest but catch up on sleep and work and 3 sessions at devolume this week before I have bloodwork done and get ready to hit the ground running with off season.

    Will reduce calories a touch these next few days just to wash a little bit of water off from a few off plan meals these last few days.

    Cardio back in tomorrow and plenty of steps.

    I have an eating challenge being filmed on Friday for YouTube with josh Maley so that should be fun.

    Another very very busy day….show day here in Alicante. And as always an absolutely fantastic production put on by emilio, the man knows how to look after the athletes.

    I will 100% be doing an emilio show next year!

    A great day today. Went over to see Oscar and Jimmy this morning before setting off to the venue. Oscar produced his best ever package and performance it was really great to see. For me he deserved 6th or 7th but that’s bodybuilding he took 9th but a top 10 in a stacked class was a great result.

    Pheebs took 13th to 15th arguably got a little overlooked in the first round I believe an 11th or 12th would have been a fair placing. But to say she even got to stage with the last 3 weeks she has had was a miracle. But the no quit in her I knew she wasn’t going to miss the show. Regardless. Illness and antibiotics and no training for 9 day + a wedding in Cyprus and a house move is enough to send anyone under never mind trying to finish a prep for a show. So a big win. But we already know what needs to be done. But it was great for her family to be out here with us!

    Had a really nice post show meal first time I’ve properly gone in since my show.

    Calamari, paella for 2, 4 slices of pizza, a carrot cake, some baklava and some sorbet,

    Looks like it’s pro fats for a few days when I’m home 😂

    Looking forward to getting back to my routine of cardio and dog walks and work/training along with making our house a home!

    15 sets each session. Seems fine. The volume is different for every individual at different phases.

    So the question is are you recovering between sessions? And are your progressing? That should give you the answer you need

    October 26, 2024 at 8:57 pm in reply to: Biceps on Lower ?

    I place biceps at the start of lower, the end of density and the end of pull so I’m hitting them frequently

    But your thinking is completely rational why a lot of people do this.

    When JP first wrote me a plan in 2017 he placed biceps at the start of legs in a rest pause set format

    What a day….

    But finished with some great news.

    Cardio at 5:30am the straight to Starbucks for 2 hour work block.

    Back home for meal 1

    Took dogs out round the new area and found some class walks. Did about 50 mins and they loved it. So peaceful and loads of big open fields and bridal paths.

    Then drive to Peterborough was ther 3 hours sorting my passport but got it all accepted. Just have to drive back tomorrow to collect then straight to the airport to catch a flight to Alicante for pheebs & Oscar’s show.

    Alarm set for 4am up for an early session shower at the gym to Starbucks for an hour or so. Then off to Peterborough again before heading to the airport

    All food prepped and packed. Case packed just need to pop my CPAP in and my food prep bag. And we’re good to go!

    Night big dogs.

    Remember if you want something you’ll make it work!

    Well today could have gone better….

    Got denied at check in and couldn’t fly due to a small tear in passport. It’s 7 day fastrack for damaged passports but I’ve got an appointment tomorrow at Peterborough to try and get an emergency passport to get out there before show day. I’m staying positive but not holding much hope. So back home and cracked on with more house stuff. Then trained this evening. It is what it is, we crack on.

    Let’s see what tomorrow brings

    Well that’s been a very very busy 2 days…..

    17k yesterday and 15k today steps count alongside moving a million boxe, cases, spin bike stepper sofa and so on!

    Moving house is a task and a half. But we have 2 new beds in and up today. WiFi isn’t yet in and signal for hotspot isn’t too great so had to go to Starbucks for work for a few hours today in between tip runs and sorting. Packednojr case for Alice re but to be fair haven’t even got to the bottom of my clothes yet. Until new drawers arrive and indoor wardrobes are fitted.

    We managed to get a late session in at a snap fitness 24-7 gym literally 2 mins from us. It’s brand new all hammer strength and life fitness so managed a very solid session.

    The cardio kit is class so may join for days like today and also to do my cardio and shower in a morning when it’s too cold for the garage and I fancy a scene change.

    Just finished making the beds and food prepping for tomorrow’s flight were up at 4:30 again so best get some rest and I’ll update from Alicante

    Morning guys. Had to delete and re download the app for some reason so no post from yesterday….

    But it was a very very hectic day.

    Up for cardio at 5am

    Food prepped then set off to the PCA show for clients. 2 x 4th place at the British finals which was a great result ina stacked class could have arguably had 1 3rd.

    The back home to finish packing the house up.

    We move today. So it’s going to be a busy one. Pheebs has been an absolute superstar and she’s on peak week!
