Almost A Bodybuilder

I'm hearing you mate. I got grilled by three customs officers separately coming from Bali. Even with a baggy black tee shirt on.
 
you were just acting weird hoping to get the old gloved finger routine in a private room I bet :-)
 
took a tub of @Bigkiwi pre workout and got to the gym....not 100% but well enough to train so made it a shorter session (no shoulders or calves or abs) just to get back in and not wanker myself

113.6kg this morning...so we are down...... but until I get rid of this bronchitis not going to push or use slin etc as just extra pressure on breathing which is stupid
 
Pull -as im slowly getting better I decided for ease to just write off last week and start again...so rather than ballsing around and trying to do legs on a weekday which would take me a few hours with all the waiting I just stick to my normal push/pull/rest/push/pull/rest/legs routine mon to sun....

weight 113.7kg this morning.... last remnents of cold/blocked nose still lurking about

so another week and will be 5 months post contest.... few slip ups with life (being sick and mrs etc) but overall pretty happy...weight has been higher but have trimmed back things a little , plus break from slin right now just for good order...

Cycle also adjusted.... will be having a few days away next week for Mrs birthday, just lounging around in nice hotel in Thailand.... bit of cardio and whatever set up they have (limited) so will be a nice break and then ill work out next steps....

Cycle now will be slightly adjusted also.... almost done on the EQ/Test blend so will just go for a straight test now at 1g a week.... Primo 300mg a week..... and got some anavar 50mg tabs which make life easy ..... so will be running that for the next while , calories trimmed back a tad...just small reduction in carbs ..... which has happened already....will just use next few weeks to try get a good feel for where I am and notch BF down a little....

even last week where I haven't been feeling absolute best strength still increasing so as long as that happens and im looking a bit better and feeling it then all good.... then pick some shows.... IFBB kindly added another KG to classic so can be 97.5kg or 98kg now (depending on who measures me) which makes a bit of difference if I choose to do that.... my prob is I just don't have the size for supers .... id need a shed load more muscle I think and to be prob another 30lbs heavier to look the part...which is a bloody big ask..... im already a HW via classic... but would do classic over due to size/height so if I do real BB then id have to do smaller show ..... rather than the big ones which I am qualified for as classic like Arnolds and Olympia AMs..... .. not really one to step back for an easier time though....
