  • I had a really shitty gym session yesterday, the cherry on top was forgetting a 1.25kg plate on my squat, I wonder if the the bar being off balance was why I struggled so much (excuses). Overhead press is getting very hard, first time I've moved the safety bars right up! Deadlift with 2 plates is no joke, which brings me on to my next point.

    I've come to realise I'm not eating enough to be able to shift all this weight and recover in time. Something in my brain makes tracking impossible, I can hardly keep track of anything else in life. My new tactic is to record one day then replicate, so something like: breakfast (Skyr, Avo, toast, cottage cheese), lunch (eggs!), dinner (chicken/salmon/steak, lots of veg), desert/snacks (peanut butter, nuts)

    repeat that x7

    I usually have my creatine and clear whey daily.

  • Eating similarly every day is a good way to maintain a diet imo. I eat similarly most days at the moment. Often prep multiple variants of meals that amount to similar macros and switch them in and out.

    FWIW your diet looks very low carb (unless you're just not mentioning them). Unless you're low enough carb to go into ketosis, carbs are very important for feeling fuelled for your workouts.
