great news luke to see your doing a journal this will inspire alot of people to diet and compete. i will definatley be coming to see you in this show. cant wait for the pics. been checking your diet looks good do you take 10g of glutamine cause of your size would you recomend someone my size only take 5g and 10g after i train. graham

Hi mate,

I go for 40g daily of glutamine, 10g first thing and after train always. For you 20g daily would be fine.
When i'm not dieting only take in 20g. TBH its something i recommend when dieting, but if you can afford to do it all the time, get it in!..

Don't compare your diet to a top level guy's diet, Graham.  There are so many other factors which come into play.

Must ask how do you find smith squats Luke, don't see many post about'em on here, is there a reasoning behind the smiths as opposed to free bar?

Hi mate,
Am trying to get more sweep on my quads, so have my feet forward and closer than normal squating. This is much easier to do on the smith, plus its safer using when handling heavier weights.
I do still regular free bar squatting in the normal way and can move lot more weight, am concentrating on some serious sweep.

Thanks a lot Luke, these may be worth a punt.
