I walked into the gym feeling confident, which for me is huge. After my rest day, my body had recovered well and I was feeling strong. For a lifter looking to make some gains, confidence is huge. It gives you that extra boost you need to push yourself through obstacles, challenges and setbacks to achieveContinue reading “Day 14: Back Day – Confidence”

Day 11: Shoulders
After three good days in the gym, my body was just not ready to go for this workout. Each weight felt like it had ten pounds added onto it. I was fighting everything but that’s how it goes in the gym on some days. The important thing is to get in there, spend some time,Continue reading “Day 11: Shoulders”
Day 6: Legs – Getting Under the Bar
“I can’t wait to go to the gym and work legs today” – No one ever I’ve been told that legs make up around half of the body. I’m not a doctor, or good at math, so I’m not sure if this is exactly true or not. What I can tell you is the truthContinue reading “Day 6: Legs – Getting Under the Bar”
Day 5: Shoulders
Today I hit shoulders. It was one of those workouts where I was dead tired and just wanted to get in and get out.

Day 2: Back Day
Some people refer to the back as the legs of the upper body. Basically they mean it’s a shitty part of the body to train because it isn’t chest or arms. But I love back day, it’s my favourite body part to work out and thus it’s pound for pound my strongest muscle group. WorkingContinue reading “Day 2: Back Day”
The Importance of Vision and Goals
Today I want to touch on something that one of my greatest idols always talks about, and that is the importance of a vision and goal. “Why do you want to work out, what is your goal. The most important thing is that you have a vision, that you have a goal. Because without thatContinue reading “The Importance of Vision and Goals”
Day 1 FTB (For the Blog)
I’ve been hitting the gym hard for the past four weeks but honestly I’ve been feeling like shit. I treated the past four weeks as a foundation phase. This phase is when you get your body ramped back up for the intense workouts after some time off. I think there’s some saying out there thatContinue reading “Day 1 FTB (For the Blog)”
