Hi James, spoke to you briefly back stage at the British (I was in the lightweight class). Your last thread was inspirational! I am looking forward just as much to following this one!
Well said in respects to competitive bodybuilding and getting the right balance with your relationship. This is something that has always played in the back of my mind while I'm dieting & training for a show. I think it's so easy to become so focused that you can sometimes forget the people around you who really matter.
As you quite rightly said bodybuilding is a hobby for most of us and its should always come second place behind your family & your partner.
I always take my partner out after a show and make a point of thanking her for all her support and just being there for me when it matters.
Good luck for the AC show mate, be good to see lots of quality british beef go and stir things up over the far side of the pond.
