Alright, time for the hammer to drop...
Off-Season packed up now at 113.4kg, my all time highest... Plenty of tissue built during this phase, where I finally developed some balls to stick to proper diet and higher than ever Macro Targets... Training as been absolutely pushed to the limits so far, where intensity has never been higher... My body stills needs alot of stretching and treatment to release some tension on the muscles, since posing is a hard one to do now because I feel super tight atm...
Now Prep starts Monday for my first timers show at PCA Hull First Timers in Sep. 26!! Can't wait to drop my food down, I couldn't imagine how hard it gets to shove down so much food...
Many thanks for my two bros and for sticking up with my s**t during this phase, and especially for my other half for keeping me sane π

It's been some time now since I last posted something but I feel this one is a must do...
I love this picture for many reason. It shows emotion, joy, hard work but yet still enjoyable. It makes me remember the real reasons why I do what I do! For the love of iron, the feeling of accomplishment after a hard session, the friendship, the atmosphere. That will always triumph any throphy I could potentially get in the future.
I couldn't be more grateful for the ones by my side on this picture. They are not just my training partners, but brothers from another mother. They represent a huge slice in the pie of my progression and love for the game.
Just a little thank you post for and for making this journey far more enjoyable than it would be by myself.

Never been much of a person that updates his physique on social media (I think) but since evolution and progress is also about getting out of your comfort zone, here I go out of mine π
Both calories and weight are now at a all time highest, with 109,2kg and 5000kcal, creeping up every week. Food is getting in with ease and strength is also progressing with it...
Composition is acceptable as an off season goes, now aiming for a possible first timers show by the end of summer time...
My focus right now will be on sorting out current injuries on my back, releasing my Lats and reducing the inflamation in the area... All my front shots look terrible to my standard as my tightness is pushing on my shoulder and creating a very unbalanced visual... Also, posing need to be practiced more as it is very basic (never done it before π).

Ashwagandha, is a natural root extract that offers an array of different performance, recovery and stress relieving benefits.
Despite the fact that it has been used for more than 3000 years, research is still at its infancy, and more research is needed to fully support the full potential of the benefits it might offer.
That being said, a number of studies point out to a strong anxiolytic effect (reduces anxiety) and cortisol suppression (as much as 20% decrease, one of the main stress inducing hormones). As of now, we can already see why it is so used in the realm of thephysique development, knowing that cortisol is one of the most catabolic hormones in the human body.
Also, cortisol and testosterone work against each other. Other benefits that this extract provides are small reductions in blood glucose, blood pressure, and LDL-cholesterol, while slightly increasing HDL-cholesterol. Additionally, it may modestly increase testosterone and s***m quality in infertile men.
As of its side effects, it is considered a very safe supplement to use, with no strong symptoms reported, apart from mild drowsiness and sedation for a very small percentage of people.
As is such an important variable to be controlled in both physique development, and , I strongly suggest that you consider this supplement if you feel that it might assist you with any of the problems mentioned above.

So, why not try this ? πͺ

Mindset is everything when it comes to excel at anything in life.
This is where most of the world leaders and innovators of todayβs age distinguish themselves from the common populus. Their approach towards what they do is as sharp as a knife and their vision is almost always clear and precise.
They put all the necessary effort and time in their visions.
They are not afraid to fail, but they learn from their past mistakes. They do it from what they believe to be the right reasons. They might question their decisions sometimes, but very rarely they question where they are heading.
This should somehow be reflected in your when it comes to your journey.
First, you should do it for YOUR right reasons. They will be what truly empowers you. I'm talking about that thing that pushes your forward when things get dark and you donβt want to get your ass off the sofa to cook or do your workouts. For some, is their vision of how they will look in the mirror once they give their best efforts, that feeling of winning a contest, for others is the feeling of disappointment they will feel after if they donβt do what they know they are supposed to do, others is the longevity they will get, a primed body that is able to play and keep up with their kids. This can be a variety of different things, and each person will have to find their true motivation within.
You can get the best coach or personal trainer out there to assist you with your journey, but no one can get you as motivated as yourself π
You need to get your head around the fact that nothing in this journey will come for free.
