5 weeks out from Toronto pro show!

Firstly I would like to thank you all for your well wishes leading upto the Britidsh Grand prix, it was much appreciated. Most of you know that I placed 5th at the show, I was very happy with my placing but on the flip side, very disapointed with my end product. Since the show I have taken some time out to chillax and to enjoy my training, and know I feel im ready to go again.
My aim this year has always been to qualify for the Olympia, which I feel im capable of doing
There have been some adjustments to my diet, and I feel im in a good position to dial it in for the next 5 weeks.
 
So here we go... currently 14st 8lbs and 5 weeks left! I will update you regularly but please feel free to ask any questions.
 
Thanking you all again

Looking sharp Shaun and still another 5 weeks to really bring it in.
 
Arms looking good in that shot.

Good luck !

Good post Shaun.  You are looking phenominal, mate.  You look 2 weeks out, not 5!
No time to chill though, you're gonna win the Toronto Pro!

Looking great mate. Lean as fook for 5 wks out and some serious legs on you.
Best of luck with your the Toronto Show

Best wishes mate, sure you'll do well x

Looking tight and for 5 weeks out, right on the dial.  Cannot wait to see the end results SJT.  Regularly keep tabs on you and the other UK lads and you always do us proud - you looked awesome at the GP in March.  
 
How do you find doing 2 comp's so close together?

My weight has stopped coming down for the past few weeks, so I will begin carb cycling from tomorrow. At present im on 500g carbs, I will drop to 350g for two days then upto 400g then back down to 350g and see what that does.
 

very impressive for 5 weeks out Shaun, even more impresive is how much mass you have on your frame!!!!

Looking massive mate, good luck with the show.

Makes my carbs @ circa 100g per day seem tiny!

I need that many carbs after the Grand prix, I was very depleted and lost a lot of size, granted my condition was very good but I made no impact. So I spent time eating up  and trying to put back on what I lost. I took most of last year out to add a bit more muscle, so ive deffinately put on something in the past year, it just didnt show up at the Grand prix :-)
 
So now being 5 weeks out, my body needs to get a bit of a show by cycling. I'll probably end up cruising into the show on 300g of carbs then bumping it right up for a bit of a carb up!
