bound to happen with a drawn out hip injury on one side. Easily fixed
but yeah, the irony of my left side being the stronger one ... wow, that's actually funny
really? I'm actually feeling a bit blah with it all ... maybe it is all the stress I'm under right now but starting to feel a bit lost.
Can't afford to be thinking about this stuff too much so would be nice to have some guidance for the remainder of the year.
But oh, can't afford it for the first time ever

Post up evryrthing here and we can guide you.....this is what i am planning with whether to bulk or cut, just have to get the courage up to take some pics and post on the interwebz, something I would have never thought I would actually do....

That's funny, I took down my pics from the OP on this thread as I just didn't want pics of me running around either ...
At this point, it would actually be helpful to have a nutrition coach. Someone who knows the stuff I haven't figured out yet. I've figured out lots, btw. I've been my own daily experiment for over 12 months now and progress has been good. I'm in no hurry. I'd rather get it right than stuff myself up via a lack of patience.
On the training side, I could not be happier. I have a fantastic trainer who is now also a friend (and #1 CCM taste tester/victim
). I finally got my wish of "strength training FTW". She's a PL and occasional strongwoman competitor so probably laughs hysterically at my puny attempts But on the nutrition side, this stressful period is taking its toll ... while I'm sticking to my plan, I know I won't achieve my goals for this year by Xmas with everything else going on. I'm very self motivated and don't need to be pushed, but in one thing, just for once, I'd like to feel as though I'm not entirely alone. You know?
Stress makes me lose my appetite so I'm proud that I'm still eating around maintenance even when things are bad. But need to get back to where I was quick smart....or try another tack.
This past week, I've felt flat in the gym and everything feels harder. Probably the lower carbs. I need a refeed but just couldn't handle it

OK so what is a nutritien coach going to tell you?
Or more to the point what are you struggling with at the moment which is hindering you from achieving your goals which aren't stress and lifting related?

Hey I know this feeling. Training solo without a 'gym home' at present, I get that. And when I did keto earlier this year, at every function being the only sober guy, or the one making a fuss with the waiter at a restaurant to try and find one suitable meal option, or having a coffee meetings and repeatedly having green tea... good to be around people in a similar scenario for once !
It's great that you have a trainer as that helps on that front. Hard to find one that is the right match, sounds like you have.
If you need similar on the nutrition side and it helps remove one thing from your mind to worry about, even if you could do it better / work it out yourself if you gave it the time, I say do it. Less stress, some company, someone to bounce things off with, someone to keep you on your toes, maybe some learning. But at a price of course ! $

Thanks guys, you're right ...
plus bench day!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm going for a rep PB tonight cos I seeing "disappointed face" on my coach makes me sad
[MENTION=11149]Stewstews[/MENTION]; check your email ... from way back ... time for consultant catch up and compare notes. It's freaking scary out there...hopefully getting this stupid election out of the way might get some investment going in the big end of town.
I mean IBM have been all over the shop doing as much damage as they can. There have to be a gazillion stuff ups for me to go in and fix *again* lol
Have a great week, guys

lol I could use some help
Good luck with the Bench PB today
you've stolen my tagline, sir.
What's with that???? Explain. No, just change it!
thanks
You know that's not how it works with all that orangutan arm thing going on ...
this needs some voodoo, a funny dance, possibly a sacrificial goat and some weird occult crapola ...
but i'll do my puny best
I just assembled my food for a 6 hour shift at work.
250g rice
200g chicken
100g bacon
4 big ass mushrooms
peas
corn
All fried up into goodness.
4 scoops protein powder, 1l almond milk and 2 bananas.
4 cans tuna
And i'll probably smash a ham and cheese pizza whilst i am there.
Lets get fat together!

Update 08 August 2013
Due to my extreme lack of appetite over the last couple of weeks ... most likely just due to stress or possibly also old age
I thought I'd do a quick check in.
Morning weight: 46.1kg
gahhhhhhhh, please don't let that be FFM falling off my body so fast
(yes i know some might be water weight).
I felt like this:
(ain't she cute though)
Managed to up my kcals almost back to normal levels yesterday.
Off to a good start today.
Don't want to go backwards.
Don't want to suck at deads tonight.
It's also possible that my maintenance kcals are a tad higher than I thought from experience... but we shall see.
Teeth gritted. Determined look on face ...
c'mon August, I'm heading for a new 1RM
