Ya cheeky get!!! I've dropped a stone and a half so far.

Diet is pretty much the same cept carbs are higher in the morn and dropped a bit in the evening. I have a cheat on a saturday but this usually just takes the form of a few glasses of wine.

Other than that I've stuck to my diet religiously which I'm rather proud of

Well done big man, are you using any eph or anything

Hams and calves last night .. di dlying leg curl, standing leg curl and a ton of calf raises ending in a drop set from 6 plates per side down to 1 .. calves were very very pumped.

Chest and triceps today: Incline smith .. finding these hard to progress ...never been a great bencher but struggle on these ..really feel them in my chest though. Then did cable flyes ..find these put much less stress on my biceps and I can contract my chest hard at the top, finished off with a few sets of hammer dips. Triceps were quite pumped already so just finished them off with some pushdowns.

Condition is slightly better .. think I am expecting too much too soon though .. will be pleased when my abs start to come through more clearly.

Hamstrings are improving .. pleased with this as they were very weak and I've worked hard to bring them up (still not great though).

Am working away tomorrow so will be doing legs in muscleworks in London .. great gym (I'm actually turining down an all expenses paid night at the groucho club to go and train and then eat chicken on my own in a hotel room ;(.

Can I ask, what are the prices at Bodypower and the crowd? Is it a normal or BB-ing gym? Interested in moving maybe at the end of summer and it sounds alright.

Been working away for the past two days in London. Managed to stick to my diet okay .. carbs were quite low as I was limited by what I could get in the supermarket but I managed ot get loads of good protein in so that was okay. Trained at Muscleworks last night .. did legs. Workout was okay but I was quite tired as I'd only had a few hours sleep the night before and then worked all day .. good DOMS in my legs today so I must have trained reasonably hard. There were some proper beasts training there .. I felt really small and in **** condition as some of these boys looked very good. If I worked in London full time th sis where I would train and I'll certainly make this a regular visit whenever I'm down there .. it is a proper bodybuilders gym. Got talking to the owner Sav afterwards after he heard I was from liverpool. He is a really nice guy, made me feel very welcome.

estfna Bodypower is £3.50 for non menber £2.50 for members. The crowd is mixed .. few bb'ers, students and keep fitters.

The Iron

Hell yeah, my training stepped up about 4 levels since joining there last year.

Its home to some beasts in there mate!

Sav's a funny guy, hes either in a deadly serious mood or hes taknig the **** out of everyone that comes in. Very good atmosphere in there, i love it! The dude on the counter in the mornings is a top bloke too.

looking forward to hopefully meeting ya next time mate. Be lucky.
