It was all happening this week!

Hi Everybody!

I hope everybody has had a great week! I know that I have!

Snapshot

So prior to this week I had gone a little off track with the diet due to having to go away, a wedding and my own birthday ( dirty 30! ). My weight had slowly gone up to 105 kg due to this so this time last week I decided to get back on track. I'm currently sitting at a neat 99 kg's and I'm actually feeling fairly lean. Now, It may look like a lot of weight for 7 days but i assure you this is water weight ( when i go off a diet i gain quickly but also lose it quickly once i clean it up ) . 

Activities for the week

So this week i decided to do that dirty, dirty thing people keep telling me about, cardio. Each morning i have been taking a 30-45 minute fasted walked before work and let me tell you, It was a little bit cool! I am actually beginning to enjoy these walks and It gets me ready to go for the day. As for in the gym i have made so absolutely awesome progress this week! My squat is really starting to get back on track after a year of niggles and injuries which I am over the moon about!! We have also switched my deadlift stance to a wide conventional ( made popular by Ed Coan if you wish to check it out ) and I am having a lot of success with it. Pulling conventional I couldn't get setup correctly making the lift very difficult for me and the full sumo stance I don't seem to have the hip mobility so I was keen to try this stance out. It felt very natural to me and I can't wait to see what I can do with it once I have had a little practice with the technique. Not a lot to report on the bench, the technique is improving but just need to get stronger. 

That's it for this week everyone there is a lot that will be going on in the next few months I will keep you all updated. Remember to do your meal prep tonight and have a fantastic week all!!
