  • I see meal stuff like the above and I wonder how on Earth people can pack in 5/6 decent sized meals a day. I've started to improve my own diet, particularly when it comes to breakfast and lunches and meal prepping, but not sure if I can pack much more in without just feeling ill

    Anyway, decided to stick with Stronglifts for now, but only squatting the once every week - my hip has certainly eased off. Now reaching that point where I am starting to struggle with stuff like OHP and barbell rows; have always found the former in particular pretty brutal and I'm still down the lower end at 30kg

  • Often doing some low intensity steady state cardio (best example, a 10 minute walk) soon after eating helps with digestion and stops you feeling too full, allowing you to pack in more food.

    Also OHP is hard, especially if you've got long arms.

  • I work from home, which helps with being able to pack in food.

    OHP is my favourite move but as you say its brutal. I had to move safety bars up for the first time the other day.

    Can someone just tell me what supplements to take, going onto bulk/myprotein or equivalent is giving me a headache with the amount of variety.

    Currently taking;
    Creatine
    Whey protein

    But I'm sure there is a few I'm missing. I'm particularly concerned about recovery , especially with the amount of squats I'm doing.
