A little bit of posing before work! Already trained this morning and I feel like every muscle on my body is about to fall off on the floor! I am carb loaded to the max as well! Currently weighing about 8 lbs more than my first show, but I am very satisfied with this physique. Been working my butt off in the gym and I see the difference :-) Peak week is quickly approaching! Ready to bring everything I can to the stage! 8 days let’s go!

Been so sick lately! Immune system is absolutely trashed - might have something to do with lack of sleep and a terrible diet as of late haha. I have been on holidays and taken up the Seafood DIet: I see food and I eat it! Never been good friends with self-control :/

After 2 weeks off I'm hoping I'll bounce back with my training with a proper rest and recover. Have started a new program, so I'm doing a 3 day split: push, pull, legs. I wasn't sure how long I would stick with it, but absolutely loving it.

Gym closed down :(

So cut that my gym closed! It was so nice and quiet, awesome atmosphere, mad interior..

I swear I was having withdrawals during the washout period from not being able to train. Totally grumpy and zero energy. Terrible sleeps.

Training at a Fitness First for the moment. They've got all the equipment but it's just not the same... way too busy as well, and it'll cost me more than twice as much! I definitely prefer training at a gym where nobody knows me, I don't quite see that happening here. Damn..

When you screw up, skip a workout, eat bad foods, or sleep in, it doesn’t make you a bad person. It makes you human. Welcome to the club. There’s like seven billion of us.

Damn right. Love this.

It's about living a healthy lifestyle and being able to sustain it for the rest of your life. It's not military bootcamp. (although i'm sure that would be a insane experience)

Sunwarrior sprouted brown rice protein

I got this in the mail last week in the Vanilla flavour, and was so keen to try it out. Unfortunately, despite all the good things i read about this particular brand, the taste is so strong! And not in a good way! The texture is also a bit hard to swallow, i heard that Sunwarrior had some of the best solubility for their vegan proteins so i guess i had high expectations, but it is very gritty, even when i blend it with fruits for a couple of minutes its still pretty bad (usually i only blend smoothies for 30 secs). If I mix in a full scoop per large glass/mug, its hard to get the whole thing down without gagging erghhh.

I love soy milk so i thought it might have a similar taste, rice milk is definitely easier on the tastebuds, the powder tastes totally different :( It might also be the stevia that doesn't go well with me, I've never been a fan of sweetener, natural or otherwise but they are much more tolerable in foods than in drinks it seems....

I've been told that brown rice protein is superior in quality to pea protein but from experience pea protein has a much better taste and even maybe solubility too. So, I might have to go down that path. I now have 3 huge almost full tubs of protein sitting in my kitchen from the last few tried and tested failures! My search is not being to kind on my poor wallet...
