ATHLETE SUMMARY:
PERSONAL THOUGHTS:
**I’m taking these pics a few days later than normal (on a Wednesday instead of Monday) since our flights from Tampa were delayed and we didn’t get home until late Monday. I changed my back pose today but will go back to my previous back pose since I think it looks better.
I had excellent sleep early in the week then we traveled to Tampa for the NY Pro, sleep duration usually decreases during these trips as does quality. Travel was very hectic both to and from Tampa with delays. I was able to keep my activity high on days of travel by walking around the airport. Just like our previous trips I kept fluid intake high before, during and after traveling to aid in better digestion.
Overall for this week I feel like I’ve progressed well even during travel, with less than optimal sleep and training.
DIET FEEDBACK:
There was one notable day this past week where I woke up in the middle of the night due to hunger, which carried in to the next day. Hunger was much higher than it typically is and it’s the first time during prep that it’s actually woken me up in the middle of the night. This was on 5/15, which I didn’t weight myself that morning since we woke up so early. I do think had I woken up at my normal time and weighed I would have been at a new weight low just based off of how I felt and looked.
Post show on 5/15 we went out for a post show cheat meal, which I felt fine doing since I feel I’m ahead in progress for my show and I usually jump ahead in progress when we travel. We went out for sushi and had many desserts that were absolutely worth every bite. The following day we were supposed to fly back to San Antonio but our flight was delayed and we had to stay another night. No issue there since we still had plenty of food with us. I dropped my food back to my off day diet with the exception of my preworkout meal. Digestion felt fine post cheat meal.
TRAINING FEEDBACK:
Training was ok during travel. We got into Tampa super late, so we worked out at 11pm which is way later than what I’m used to. Between how late it was, and a full day of hectic travel training was not excellent. I did adjust my training for the next day to include upper body and some lower body pump work that I skipped from the previous day to manage fatigue better. The following 2 lower body sessions that I did during our trip were just ok, strength felt decent, I was able to stick to my normal programming more or less with some slight adjustments.
Now that we’re back home and in our normal gym my first training session since leaving for Tampa was excellent. Strength was very high; energy was high, and I feel much fresher. I also had a great pump which has been few and far between for weeks now.
COACHING SUMMARY:
EVALUATION:
Renee pulled down consistently this week to a new 2lb low and this was even despite a massive cheat meal with me post show. I want to slow the rate of fat loss down and fuel training, so I am going to add in another 25g of carbohydrates to training days. She only gets 2 meals prior to training so the amount will be split amongst meal 1 and meal 2.
