Pikey's progress

Gravy is full of salt and fat mate so no good. I'm gonna stick with the pepper and chilli I know they don't mess with my condition, have got some Nandos sauce too - that fires things up a bit, I'll cut it closer to the show.

Lol sorry Tal just changed network and not got used to vm just sticking an icon on the display...

I'll be there this time and a good insentive to keep it tight on the diet!

Had a cracking Chest and Triceps workout tonight with Andy, I’m chuffed with how my condition has improved, my quads aren’t over shadowing my upper body now…But the overriding impression from tonights workout is - Wow you should see Andy James is he looking massive or what! And lean…

Good one Andy keep it up mate 13 weeks to Southport!

Not much to update this week – I’ve lost a couple of K and tightened up which is nice as I look heavier because I’ve more separation. Friday was a dress down day at work so I wore my fav orange Gasp stretchy T – had a few comments so that’s me happy – simple things eh…
Going to run everything the same next week as its working for now…

Pikey · 08-03-2008, 03:41 PM

10 weeks out tomorrow, I’m the heaviest I’ve been at this point 88K and I think the leanest . Just taken all the hair of, pain of a job but at least I can see my quads properly now.
Next week is going to be hard, I’ve a meeting in Fleet at 9am Monday which means the only way I can be sure to get there is go down tomorrow evening so 24 hours living of a cool box, the Tuesday is a full day meeting with drinks and “networking” in the evening – just not my type of thing and it’s supposed to be leg day and as I’m 100% dry I can’t even numb my head with alcohol. Leg day will be Wednesday, I’ll train Thursday then have Friday off. It’s H BD soon so were out for a curry well H and a load of her running club friends are, I’ll be eating chicken tikka they’re a decent crowd but a curry house isn’t the best place for a dieting bodybuilder. H deserves a break though …Not so sure I could bollox everything up next week but I could go from being on track to having a hill to climb.
Saturday I intend to go to Bodyworks with Tall so I’ll be able to get my back workout in up there.
Diet and everything else remains the same, I’m steadily sharpening up without loosing muscle mass so would prefer to keep it steady if I can. If I have a bad week could all change next week?
H has a twenty mile race tomorrow so good luck babe!

I’ve not updated as I’ve not really had anything to add. However today I had a proper funny turn, I’ve followed the same basic diet for the last 3 ½ weeks yesterday I noticed mid morning I was feeling light headed bit toughed it out, today though I must have been very depleted as I was struggling to string a sensible sentence together, which in my line of work isn’t a good thing! At first I wondered is it was a serious stress reaction then noticed I was dizzy too, so I grabbed a flapjack out of the machine at work and 5 minutes later was fine.
I think it may be that in like for like condition I’m about 5K heavier so am probably burning more carbs, so tomorrow I’m going to refeed and introduce ongoing have 3 or 4 rice cakes with my protein shake mid morning.

52 days out I think…

Decided against plain rice cakes and just went with refueling on carbs as and when needed.

Just found out that I defo can’t do the NE as I live in Derbyshire (Although Derbyshire isn't exactly the NE then again I can't imagine many Geordies accepting Sheffield is either, I guess you have to put a line somewhere)which is a shame as I like the show and Andy is guest posing but I’ll be up there with him.

So sent for the forms for the Midlands

Condition is coming on nicely I think I’m probably a bit in front of the curve so I’m throwing a 500gram carb day in today to fill myself back up. I’m still weighting 85K first thing so my weight isn’t coming down much if any as it seems to bounce back up every time I refuel but condition is improving.
I’m hoping to be around 80K on stage in better condition than the uk show

I’ve decided to cut all diet pop out and just drink water just to see what happens and to be fair I’ve gone off of fizzy stuff for some reason.

This weekend I’m cutting chicken out and having turkey breast, in the evenings I’m alternating white fish and salmon and Saturday night treat is a lean steak.

I’m going to try dropping oats in the morning and replacing them with rice flakes to give me the same equivalent carbs. Oats have a we bit of oestrogen in them, probably a bit early to worry about that but as I’m looking ok I thought I’d play around with my feeding a bit and if it works great and if not can soon revert to my usual approach.
