Currently in Dublin on a PICP Level 2 training course. It's great! Looking at structural balnce of the lower body which is putting me through some tuff workouts!

Glad to be getting new and improved training techniques to introduce to my clients. On another note diet is going well with me having access to a kitchen so keeping on top of things.

3.5 weeks to go!!

Looks like everythings dialling in, plenty of detail in that back!

Sunny day here in Aberdeen. Hitting 24 degree's appartently but feeling pretty tired and lethargic so not really getting the chance to enjoy it. All in the need for a win at the scottish championships!! Staying strong.
 
Condition is looking good today with my legs starting to really show me some veins. However my weight has been really strange. I weighed in on monday at 79kg up from the Saturday before where I was 76.5kg. Maybe my cheat meal on the Saturday had added a few pounds. Havent weighed myself today so probably back to the norm. Hoping t obe around the 74s before carb load.
 
No training today just a good day off of cardio and weights. Back on it tomorrow with Shoulders and Arms.

Weekend of work with a pretty hard going 9-5 today. Carbs are low so really not feeling my best. Tired, hungry and everything that goes along with the last few weeks of contest prep. Cant wait to tuck into some much deserved cheesecake, beliveve me!! Looking forward to the end result however with trunks and tan arriving yesterday thanks to Liquid Sun Rayz and Fitclothing.com for my posing trunks. Got some velvet pro style ones.
 
Todays workout was tuff. 6-12-25 on legs with low carbs is really not an easy combo. Managed through it with some caffine and a great deal of will.
 
Barbell Squats 110kg x 6
Dumbell Lunges 20kg x 24 (12)
Leg Extension 30kg x 25
 
Standing Good Mornings 80kg x 6
Seated Hamstring Curls Pin 12 x 12
Swiss Ball Hamstring Curls Bodyweight x 25
 
Perform each circuit 3x and rest 2minutes between each one. Totally nuts but always enjoyable. Just gotta keep the head down and monster through the last feww days until a week off before final prep week.

Final week indeed James and don't I know it :-@. Al be fine just grumpy on carbs. I think I can call my self a little old hand at this now so didn't expect anything else in the last week.

Today completed two cardio sessions, 50mins morning and 60mins afternoon. Still adding salt to every meal with a touch of ketchup. Currently supplementing with magnesium, potassium, vitamin c and dandelion root. Peeing quite a lot.

Speaking to James tomorrow so will update from when we chat.

First depletion workout today. Hard work working through reps of 30 and completing 4 sets per exercise. Just trying to pump up through the back so a few machines and just kept repping. Finished with 20minute hill walk on the treadmill.

Had a chat with James on the phone and he has sent me my plan for the next 2 days. Only a change to my water which is pushing up to 8ltrs and then the salt stops on Wednesday with water at 10ltrs of low sodium bottled. No long walks then :-)

Carb up has officially started!!

I love my breakfasts in the morning even more now that I can have 75g oats. Fnished off my last cardio session this morning so glad that's over. Munching my way through the food for today and the 10ltrs if water to guzzle down!

Shaving today then tan tomorrow afternoon. Will see how it sits then maybe another coat on saturday afternoon and then........

SHOWTIME!!

Couple of layers of tan now applied. The Liquid Sun Rayz competition colour is looking really good. Only had 2 layers and pretty much ready to go. Normally it takes at least 6 jan tana.

ContinuIng carbs today with water starting to cut down. Getting more and more thirsty but feeling good.

Maybe a couple more layers tomorrow the fully dry out and we are good too go!!

Well here I am one day out from the Scottish Championships and I'm bored with anticipation! It's been 16 weeks and it really doesn't feel like it but tomorrow I'll be battling it out for that trophy.

Peeps been fine probably one of the easiest for a while. This was not to be a jail sentence but one where I would actually enjoy dieting and not try to kill myself.

One more cote of tan and continue to dry out. Things are looking great.

Hiya and well done for yesterday. Feedback as requested To be totally honest, I had you neck and neck with the guy who placed 2nd in the afternoon. You had him on symmetry but his condition was slightly better than you. I think he had a little more size but had a couple of weaks spots to me that let him down. For yourself, I think overall you are very balanced and have a lovely classic physique that has good potential. You pose well bringing out your shape well and have a good stage presence. It was this that swayed it for you in the evening. Your condition was a little softer than last time I saw you and think that's the main thing you need to work on for the finals. Well done and good luck with training for the finals. Sorry we didn't get chance to chat, I dragged hubbie off to drive home straight after.
