So that’s me 6 weeks post show and I’m super happy with the condition iv managed to hold while letting my weight slowly creep up while keeping all the negative sides away. Such as water retention, excess fat, out of breath etc. this is many to list. And in this rebound phase you really need to take it gradually and progress at a rate where you can control these variables so your health stays in check and you can continue to train optimally and grow. Also allowing the correct foods to be ingested and not over do it on the wrong foods. This has been the best and most controlled I’ve been post show and I can feel the benefits.
I’m hoping to secure a surgery slot soon and have that boxed off at start of 2024 and let recovery take place and then come back fighting fit for next year.
Stay tuned and follow the next part of my journey.
Hope everyone is well.
So another weeks in the books. Week 4 post show and things still going well. 281 pounds and holding condition very well. Our goal was 285-290 in this condition, so slow and steady to win the race at this point. Nothing drastic or fancy needed. Just allow the body to do its thing. Still in a very responsive state where appetite and hunger are still in a very good place. Areas I’m needing to work on Seem to be growing and changing as needed.
Another 4 weeks in this phase and we will run a health phase in to the new year.
Noticed this week more fatigue than normal. Which is my body hitting a fast strength update over the last few weeks and it’s catching up on it. From here it’s going to be a case of a deload soon or taking extra rest days when I feel they are needed. Try manage fatigue the best I can.
Treating this rebound and off-season like a prep is giving me the best results and allowing me to feel the best I have felt
So week 3 of my rebound phase. Or reverse phase If you rather. After my show my body was feeling in a good place physically so we decided to have a nice rebound phase over a health reverse phase. Kept PED exposure in at a very moderate amount and put food to my high carb day plan for all training days and raised rest day food and my body has responded really well. All things in a really good place. Appetite is still very high. Strength and performance in the gym is climbing very fast. Body feels great and still fresh.
Taking each session gradually and not forcing weights. Controlling form and letting strength come to me. Will continue this until I feel I can go full send on the big weights again. So far this is the best reverse/rebound phase I have ever done. 6 weeks left of this then a nice deload and recovery phase over the festive period where I hope I can get shoulder surgery done.
As always any questions you can find me on my instagram
Show weekend is finally here! Landed yesterday and got settled and today is first day of loading. Been a fairly smooth week getting here with no stress and should be a smooth peak. Very excited to get going and land the plane.
Coach lands today and will be with me till show so a very close eye which is great.
Very confident for this weekend and what I am bringing. So let’s pray and hope it’s the pro card weekend.
Nothing too much to say at the moment other than away to get my head down and do what’s needing done and finish this season with a bang. Thanks to everyone for following my journey so far.
Final weeks of this prep. And things still moving along well. I could go on stage now and be happy. But we still have 2 weeks left to be even better and keep bringing in more and more conditions. So that’s what we are doing. At this point we need to be very careful and take it day by day. Push too hard and body might not come back. We are managing 3-4 days max and then needing to run a big high day to keep body and look in a good place. Condition keeps improving daily so I feel the set up we have atm is perfect and working well for me. I can truly say this is going to be my best look to date and very excited to present it. Just need to not do anything stupid and keep focused on the goal and the task at hand. Food and energy is getting very low but it’s the home stretch and it’s all worth it. And I know I couldn’t have done more and that will hopefully be awarded. Days are the same and nothing exciting to report. But that’s what prep is. Doing the same things day after day to bring your best. Doing what works.
As always any questions about me or my prep then you can always dm me on Insta.
Happy weekend everyone.
Hope you are all well!
