    Freedom in the offseason is great, especially after a long season/prep!

    And it’s very common to make swaps for enjoyable food sources in offseason as well as having cheat meals and bits and bobs! Just remember the fact that food is fuel for performance and to make them improvements you want to make sure you fuelling your body to benefit your goals xx

    First session back in the UK today!! In all honestly I’m feeling a bit down in the dumps, a bit doubtful of myself and all in all just a bit glum!! I do get this time to time and never like to really talk about it because I don’t want people to feel a negative vibe from me as I love positivity but sometimes I get to a point where I just feel off! I know tomorrow is a new day, and shouldn’t dwell on how I feel too much! So looking up, remembering my WHY and pushing on! I hope everyone has had an amazing day!!

    Much love

    Ree xx

    Hey RP93,

    This can be entirely dependant on how you are feeling / looking! As Clare said it may be worth popping some photos up so we can gage a better idea of where you are at x

    Good morning Rhea – hope you’re enjoying Florida! Looks like so much fun over there ????
    Did your therapist say exactly what the niggle in your back was? Just muscular tightness or something more serious?
    Also, May I ask what your cardio regime is like atm? ☺️

    Hey Katie!!

    Aww I love it over here!! Today is sadly my last day!! But looking forward to get back to see my doggo and push on hard for the rest of this prep!

    So the prognosis for my back was actually in my pec, the tightness is causing my scapula to wing causing impingements! I had treatment again yesterday which felt amazing!!

    So cardio is as follows:

    Rest day – morning fasted – 55 mins x-trainer 135bpm and then 55 mins stair master in the afternoon

    Training day (all) – 45 mins fasted x-trainer 135bpm and 20 mins stair master PWO on upper days
    All days – 15 min fast walk before last meal

    Hey Adam!!

    A little bit more info would be required however have you checked the “Diet Planner” on this site! It’s a great tool for helping calculate macros and calories depending on your goals x

    Hey Liam!
    Sodium has many benefits especially during a workout! Many add a few cracks of pink Himalayan to their pre for those exact reasons! I personal have never but I do add it to meals outside of my workout x

    Hey everyone, legs/pull day was actually really positive yesterday!! Still pulled 175kg for 7 reps yesterday in my first working set which is aim of 5/9 reps so happy with that then backed off to 143.5kg for 12 reps! Sessions are actually going well at the moment I just need to get out of my own head in terms of the scales!! I know they don’t always reflect progress as I do feel leaner but I just can’t help but feel a bit down when you work so hard and they just don’t move xx

    Hey Luke,

    As Tim said which brand are you using?? Also with post workout carbs (whole food) maybe try leaving it 60mins and see if that helps

    Hey Frankie,

    I agree with the guys above if you are using the same leg press then you can switch up the exercise I.e rep ranges, foot position, single leg or as kuba suggested the Bands
