Yeah mate! It would be a pleasure! Just sort it out with Alex and give me a ring/pm/email with the details.

well nearly a week has passed since the show and i still have a huge smile on my face
although i won the title last year at the same show this year was different for a few reasons..
1 - i dieted whilst having a baby in the house which made the whole process for me and my family much harder
2 - i had made a lot of improvements over the last 12months that every one noticed..

but now the West Britain seems a distant memory....i am now 2 weeks away from the finals and what could be the best show of my life i have a real chance of making an impact at the finals against some really tough competition....i have rebound this week with around 12lbs of water retention although it is starting to drop now but it is only water so no real issue there....
i have my last refeed before the show tomorrow which is fortunate seeing as it is also my birthday...i won't be going mad though but i will be treating myself....

i am back on the GH at a lower dose of 5iu's ed....
i have also started back on the Prop and Tri-Tren along with a small amount of masteron which will be raised next week.
i took a break from the orals until today so to give my liver a little rest....

my focus though for the next 24hrs is soley on Dels show tomorrow night and not myself once that is done back to 110% on me....

Allo mate - what are you using to establish how much water you are retaining?

Cheers,
TH&S

nothing but the mirror but seeing as i jumped back on my diet and cardio straight away there has been no accumulation of fat which again is visible in the mirror the additional weight is water my defination is blurred but this is common after a show where diuretics are used like i said though come wednesday of next week it will be gone...

Cheers mate - just wondered if you used some new fangled fancy scales to workout what ur water muscle and BF%s were

Great achievement on everything you've done and I'm sure tomorrow will be just as good.

Well my birthday went well and i had a great day but yesreday was a diffrent matter....
I woke up in the morning unable to move my legs much it seems that sitting at the dining room table the night before had damaged my back pretty severly now i then did probably the most stupid thing i have done this prep and against my wifes advice i jumped on the treadmill well hobbled and did 45min cardio my lower back pain did subside as i was walking on the treadmill but i definatly suffered afterwards as i was bound to the living room floor for pretty much the next few hrs whilst my pain killers kicked in....

To add to this i jabbed my gear on the friday night and it seems that i have a little inflamation in my left Bicep it is not an infection i must of knicked a blood vessel as my arm is very stiff and a little sore.....

as we all know bad things come in threes so my third peice of luck is that i have rebound from the show pretty badly my legs are flooded i have lost all defination and gained 17lbs all water but still my head is very very unsteady at the moment....

this week will be testing to say the least as i try to get rid of the water retention and get back the defination and condition i had before the qualifier....

wow man, some hard shit to deal with. Who ever said life was easy. Hope all ends good mate really do. Stay focused...

Tall

Ouch - not really what you need is it?

What's your POA to get rid of the water? More diuretics and a low sodium diet?

PScarb

Low carbs mate cannot use diuretics so close the finals but as you can see from below panic over...

Well this week just goes to show you what a roller-coaster ride dieting can be...at the start of the week i was 211lbs a gain of 17lbs in 1 week all water but still alot of weight, because of low carb dieting for the last 5 days my weight has dropped to 197lbs yes i am flat but my condition is far better than the same time period before the NABBA West....i saw Harold yesterday and he was very impressed he pointed out that my physique was showing the extra little bits of definition that is required to win a British title now that is not to say that i believe i can win the class but i am now starting to believe that i have a decent chance...

Me and Harold worked out my plan for the next 6 days this is what it is...
Today - low carb 150g
Friday - Clean refeed 750g
Sat - Medium carb 240g
Sun - 1st day deplete 140g
Mon - 2nd day deplete 70g
Tue - 3rd and final deplete day 35g - 70g (depending on how i feel...)
protein and fats will be raised slightly on the depleting days...
the last time i depleted i dropped 11lbs but like i mentioned i am it better shape than the same period for the last show so i don't think the drop will be as severe.....so there you have it....
