Rest day today before we go in for the legs/pull day tomorrow!! So today I’ve hit my 2x cardio sessions as well as hitting my 13k step goal!! It’s still early over here so will end up going above my step goal as I will be out and about this evening! I enjoy keeping myself busy while on prep especially getting closer to show, it keeps me out of my own head xx

Hey hey everyone!! 6 WEEKS OUT! Ahhhhh time so legit flying!! So we have made some changes to diet!!

Everything feels good at the moment!! I did have a little wobble this morning when my weight didn’t move but we are going to start a different process where I update Corinne and JP each morning – so we are closely monitoring things xx

Hey Drew! I would agree with Louis as well!! I would at this point start to increase activity before dropping cals again! x

I would be in agreement with the above!! After you mini cut – bump you your maintenance and then adjust when necessary xx

Oh my gosh Rhea your condition already is insane.
How did you find the scraping therapy? I’ve always been curious as to how it feels during and after.

Hey everyone! Treatment yesterday was awesome and left looking like I had been attacked by an octopus ???? I had cupping and scraping of my pecs as they were super tight causing me to be internally rotated leaving my scapula winging and unstable hence the back pain and instability I feel when pressing!! I have treatment again next Tuesday! Today for me is also rest day so really spending it chilled out! I’ve done 1 out 2 cardio sessions today!! And I’ll go back to the gym later this afternoon for the 2nd session of cardio xx

Jasmine rice is awesome or Thai rice!! Maybe try adding some more water to it when cooking it! Or even a tad when reheating it 🙂 x

Push done and dusted today to kick of the training week!! I have a niggle in my back which I’m getting treatment on tomorrow!! It’s been affecting me from pressing effectively!! So hopefully he can find the route cause and sort it out for me xx

Doesn’t sound very cool;) Maybe try a warm pack on affected areas and try rolling out on a tennis ball (lacrosse ball hurts). Also maybe if you have someone to do it, I am in love with percussion gun. Great recovery tool????????[/quote]
Hey Aron! Ohhhh yes I roll on my lacrosse ball (ouch) but it’s a love hate relationship haha hurts like heck but helps to release it???? I also tiger balm my back to the high heavens before bed but maybe I’ll try a warm pack too!! X

Hey Dean,

I completely agree with Clare on this one! Especially not beating yourself up about it or trying to out do what has been done! Draw a line and move on! Try to find things that you can put in place to limit the binges, like staying busy, not restricting too much, increasing food volume with veggies etc xx

I agree, I would prefer to reduce food slightly if necessary and keep cardio limited as a tool deeper into a prep x

I have definitely found since working with JP the 5/9 or 8/12 and then the back off of 12/15+ rep ranges have worked a treat x
