Hi DB,

Buying some lifting straps and using my back instead of arms. Keeping the chest prominant and squeezing the shoulder blades. Also binning chins and just concentrating in the main on medium/wide rowing movements and narrow/medium pulldowns.
Legs I attribute to just training them consistantly and using lunges/staggered press/hacks in conjunction with one another.

One we have just started doing are hacks but right to the bottom. Then stop for 1-2 secs and then drive upwards. The weight goes down but the legs and esp the teardrop explode. By keeping my toes pointed outwards this also hits the outer sweep more than conventional straight or just off centre feet.

I think also using more weight but never to the point where form suffers.

So quite a lot really!!:lift:

You're physique never stops improving James. You're such an inspiration both in physique and attitude toward the sport. Look forward to picking your brains at my show LOL! Or perhaps stealing any food you have !!!

Re: James Llewellin's 'Arnold Classic' preparation thread
excellent progress there James

Hope we can catch up before you go to the US. I think you've made major improvements this year and have sought out the people to help you get there which is a sign of a true professional attitude.

Thanks Luke,

Just as I may be an inspiration to you, you too are an inspiration to others as well. The support you have is fantastic and the journey you are on will change your life as you know it.
I remember my first show and standing backstage and thinking 'what am I doing here' There I was stood next to a guy called Nick who was just over 17 stone and there was little old me at 11st something.
When I won out of a field of 13 I couldn't quite believe it. It was the best feeling in the world and it was that that made me hungrier for more success.
It seems like a lifetime ago but it was only 4.5 years ago. If you get anything like that feeling I got you will be bitten big time. That day changed my life and I hope your day changes yours too.

Hey Tom,

Thanks mate, it was you that changed my way of thinking towards my off season and for that I thank you.
It would be great to hook up and train before the trip, we always have great workouts as we always have that little bit of rivalry bubbling away under the surface, all in a good way tho.
Hope all goes well this year and look forward to locking horns in Oct again.:lift:

Re: James Llewellin's 'Arnold Classic' preparation thread
Today is wednesday 16th January 2008

DAY 20

Weight this morning was 14st 2.5lbs (90kgs)

The water from the weekend is off and each week sees a little weight loss.

I am feeling excellent at the moment; positive and energised and training is going very well indeed.

Nytol saw improvements this week when I threw a few poses during a workout which is always nice to hear. I see them myself but its always nice to have it confirmed by someone I respect.
Cardio is going well and i am finding the 60 mins pre meal 1 an absolute breeze.

Next week sees me increasing it to 75 mins with an additional 15 mins after training. Then its 6 weeks to go and at 4 weeks out I'll add another 15 to make it 90 mins. I wont go any higher than this.

I am coming in steadliy and consistently so i see no reason in making drastic changes.

I said to Nytol and Paul today, I really dont feel at all like I am dieting. I firmly believe that this time round I can go the full diet without feeling any different, or that's the hope anyway.
My body is thriving on the food I am feeding it at the moment.

The next few weekends see a lot of travelling. This weekend I am going to Brighton to a friend's wedding and then the weekend after sees me going up to Scotland to lend a hand in Del's gym for the 'official' opening. He asked me a while ago and I jumped at the chance. It will also give me a chance to speak to and meet some of the members and help them out with any advice they need. I may even strip down for a posedown with Del!!!!

The following weeknd its up to Manchester to see Paul B and make the final tweaks for the final 3 weeks. This is where it will either be pedal to the metal or just a nice cruize in; I know which one I'll be hoping for.

I trust Paul implicitly and ever since he has helped me I have had great successes and have no doubt this will be continued this year hopefully at the Arnold as well as the British in October.

So its just keeping on doing what I have been for the last 20 days relentlessly but with a real sense of purpose and real enjoyment at the knowledge that improvements are being seen as the fat slowly but surely comes off.

I would also like to thank everybody for sticking with this thread, its been going on a long, long time now what with the British, then the mini off season and now with this. So thanks for all your support and messages of goodwill, it really does make a huge difference to me and although I haven't met alot of you, I see you all as my friends.

On that note......time to eat.:beer1:
