As I have a coach, I won't be posting details about my training and nutrition - but I'll try to keep up with how it's going and some general info.
Right now I'm training 5 days a week. No cardio. A few days hypertrophy and a couple days power.
Training days I get 20g extra protein.
Nutrition is at 130P/170C/50F plus greens.
Strength continues to rise. I'm 8 weeks post show I think? Being off everything plus no cardio plus my BHRT ... and eating like crap here and there ... my weight is up quite a bit. And mostly in the lady areas. My gut and butt. Haha.
Went through some post show blues for sure this time. Mental status up and down. There's been a couple weeks where I didn't even train. And days where I didn't even eat. People at camp have been asking where I've been because I've not been constant at the gym in the mornings.
But I feel I've gotten past that and am getting back on track. It's different not already having my next show picked out.
That's part of the mental mind fuck, I guess. Not being stage lean, and getting used to being back at the gym with a different focus and purpose.
Leg day yesterday. Really feeling it in my left hamstring - solid DOMS. But my right is more than DOMS, it's in pain. For fucks sake. I've had a minor tear or something under the glute for ages that's never really healed, and it fucking hurts. At least my knees aren't aching!
Enough wining. It felt good to really push it at the gym. Today is rest day. Also fly day. I'm getting on the plane in about 15 mins.
