well i started my diet for my next shows last week. ive planned from the start to have some form of online diary, ill not be going into specifics unless people ask directly as i dont think ill get time to do so regularly.
i would have started this last week, but unfortunately on the first week of my diet i had some sort of stomach bug, which meant every time i ate or drank anything for 3 days i felt sick to my stomach..(not great when your having 6 meals a day). training made me feel even more sick and tiredness had a tight grip on me... making the first week of the diet more like the last week.. but it was important for me to mentally endure this to make sure i was in proper frame of mind for the diet!! luckily by the weekend things were clearing up and im actually enjoying eating again now
my current plan is to do the mr u80kg class at the ukbff leicester show the first week in sept and qualify for the finals in oct... however i could still decide to do the ukbff leeds show a week after the leicester instead. but right now my heart is set on leicester and ive seen nothing to change my mind so far! the plan is to basically do the show the first week in sept. and if i dont qualify for the finals then there are qualifiers most weekends of that month... so can do a few more!
this year am hoping to move up from the u70kg class to the u80kg's... obviously i feel i can do this in terms of bodyweight as last year i competed at 69.95kg... but you never know what may happen this year.. i may lose muscle.. i may come in super super shredded and stil be under the 70kg mark. if that happens fair enough... ill be up on stage whatever class i am in!
i would be over the moon simply if i dont look out of place as an u80kg and qualify for the finals. beyond that i think its a very tough class and maybe i need to fill out a little more before top 5 at the finals is in my grasp. but my mindset is im winning the whole thing! thats the only way it can be!
currently my diet consists mainly of chicken and sweet potato with added veg and fats.. some protein shakes around training and a meal replacement shake for days am not training. ill post a proper diet up soon!
cardio is currently 3 times a week 30 mins walking on treadmill first thing in morning before breakfast.
well thats enough waffling for now.. sept will be here in no time.. from now on im a machine.. ill just keep coming and coming every week.. never stopping.. acdc is on the mp3 player and am a fkin animal in the gym!!
