Never Give Up NEW PICS on p.311

Took dress back because work's been non-existent too and I'm skinto... :-( Still gotta pay gym rent over xmas

Tonight wash out... It's 10.46 and I'm home.

My friend cancelled 10 mins before I was due to meet her (I was already at the venue GRRRR) Carl had an interview in town so I waited for him in a nearby bar, alone.

Sunk a few Baileys (which was nice) but gutted as he got job and starts tomorrow night (Christmas Eve). So I'm travelling tomorrow to Brighton, alone with Delta on the train. Really sad actually but it's his first work in ages so he's gotta do it.

Won't be back online for a while now as in Brighton with mummy but everyone have a fabby Christmas and keep lifting heavy - I certainly shall be until December 31st at least! Then off to France for a week's rest and fatness!

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas.

So Christmas Eve me and Delta travelled to Brighton on train. I stopped at mum's for a while, then met friend at pub at 3pm. At 8pm I was still htere and Carl called to say he was just leaving Pompey after work let down and he would be with me after all. I eventually arrived home at 9.30pm pi$$ed as a fart with Delta! He thought my inability to speak hilairious!

I think riding to work has worked wonders for me if I'm honest... V.excited to see some actual 'Quad' instead of just 'leg' onstage... :-D
 
Checked BF% today - all fine, no xmas gains so I can still have some nice munchies in France... :-D
 
Happy New Year everyone!! Will look forward to seeing what 2010 brings us all!

Happy New Year!!!

So, am still in France with Carl's family, having my second xmas, back in the UK tomorrow and then back to some seriously clean eating. I'd like to start dieting at a nice 9st 10lbs (which I was before I left for France).

Took some progress pics about a month ago, to show what I'd done in the year  - don't know how much difference there is but I'll post these as my starting point for the season. 

Don't think I'll be posting any progress pics this year but will be keeping all prep plans thoroughly up to date.

Diet starts either 16th March or the following Monday for BNBF Centrals or Welsh if I'm ready early...

Yesterday did a Chest bands workout, abs and dog shearing as my cardio.

Any questions please ask!!!

All the best for 2010.
You seem much happier generally, as well as more optimistic nowadays; 2009 was good year for you, make this one even better.

"...those aren't the roids I'm looking for..."

2009 was an amazing year to be honest, I thoroughly enjoyed and played hard during my year off. Now Im ready to work hard and see exactly what lies beneath... Bring on 2010!!

I used to take photies to make myself feel better from nice comments  from lovely people like yourself... I'm hoping next year to be proud enough of myself to not need to do that

if you stick to the plan and concentrate on winning the qualifier rather then looking to the next show, then you will have lots to be proud of im sure!

lets make it a good year for all the MT competitors :-)

I've got a lot of fat around glutes and thighs  but that's my shape... Hopefully there's more quad and still a nice shapely bum under there after dieting, legs feel more muscular so I'm sure I'll be fine. Just need more side delt now and I'll be happy, I feel ok from the front and rear, just side, I guess it may be to do with posing... may be...

Some good work gone on there

If your shape holds well when you diet you'll have defo improved on your symmetry.

Bought bikini second hand off Cee Oliver for £30 (bargain!)
 
I hope I've gained some Shoulder-age and bicep-age as they were my lagging bits... Then I panicked after having photies taken and thought I'd been neglecting my Chest so have been majorly blasting it since December!
 
Priorities til March are:
Biceps
Side delts
Chesticles
(in that order)
 
Did 20mins Stepper last night as cardio, then a slippery walk home for 30mins!
 
Today had a client, then taught an hour's StrictlyFIT, then trained Back and Biceps today:
 
Bent Over Barbell Row
20kgs 15 reps (warm up)
40kgs 12 reps
60kgs 9 reps
65kgs 6 reps (PB I THINK)
 
Wide grip chins
20kgs 6 reps (felt really weak!)
30kgs 10 reps, 11 reps
 
Narrow grip underhand lat pulldown
35kgs 10 reps
40kgs 7 reps
 
Barbell Shrugs
50KGS 11 reps
65kgs 10 reps
 
Preacher EZ Curl
17.5kgs 12 reps
22.5kgs 12 reps
27.5kgs 8 reps
(Didn't focus on the rep range, more getting a huggggeee squeeze at the top)
 
Concentration curl
6kgs 12 reps
8kgs 12 reps
10kgs 6 reps
 
Then another slippery walk home!
 
Not enjoying diet foods atm... Not craving but it's taken me like, 30mins to eat my tuna and pasta meals - and these are waayyyyy preferential to chicken atm... EEK! Any tips people? It's the first time I've really struggled to get food down

How about a drop of balsamic on the tuna and if you're using Udos mix that with it too.

Schwartz seasoning (my saviour when dieting)
