Upper ticked off, completed, smashed
Very happy with today’s session, improved a lot since last session coming back from the holiday and only really a couple of these in the bag since this starting this new split
Switched the flat press as the previous one was just a madness in the lengthened position and one of the big goals for this block is to run this new one up to 3 plates a side which shouldn’t take long
Embracing this off season knowing that with more sessions like this and this mindset I’ll be slapping on some new muscle and it makes me excited to work hard because I’m excited to see the result next season
Growing season 🪴

It’s in every gym
Whether it’s fast reps with light weight and no tension to “tOnE tHe MuScLe” or it’s a weight so heavy you can’t do full range of motion
Training ability is a skill and each exercise is a skill in its own right.
If you don’t take the time to learn the movement, how to contract and lengthen under tension you’re not going to get what you can out of each rep
This will lead to less > little > no muscle development
A waste of your time and energy
No meaningful change in your physique
You’re in the gym training because you care.
You don’t want to see lads half your age lifting twice as much as you and looking like they’ve trained twice as long.
Take the time to learn how to
Execute the movement
Eat for growth
Train with intensity
Otherwise everyone else is going to overtake you, you’ll look like a bag of potatoes and your noodle arms will remain noodles

Check in 11/09/26 - softer than a newborns head
12 days since I’ve trained which is by far the longest break in over 12 months I’ve had and 10 days travelling around the Amalfi Coast without a thought for macros
We’re back sitting at basically the same weight as we were post holiday which is a solid result for me as previous holidays I’d be coming back multiple kilos heavier
Still a little inflammation to die down and I’m looking forward to that dropping off and getting some blood back in and I’m sure next weeks check in will be much tighter and better condition
Regardless of the physique the biggest thing about this time off was a chance to reset both physically and mentally.
I’ve pushed hard over the past 12 months to get myself into shape to compete, drive my business to new heights, improve myself across multiple aspects and take ownership of my life, the challenges and the path I want to walk.
I feel I lost sight of that a little post show and it was a tough time filled with a lot of internal little voices trying to pull me away from the path I was walking.
Time away has given me chance to rest mentally and physically and you best get ready to see Lewis 3.0
Bring it on

Fasted AM checkin 28/08/26
One of the best weeks of training I’ve had since prep, feeling energised physically and mentally
Progressions made across multiple areas, bodyweight is trending positively and we are feeling good
Now for some rest and recovery with 10 days in Italy 🇮🇹
Pace e amore ✌️

Last couple weeks have been very cool

Holding condition well post show
Savaged by insects doing the garden and my legs wrecked - not good and a break from training lower till the swelling drops

Hannah looked incredible for her photoshoot 10/10 - won’t let me share the pictures though so 9/10
Filling out that side chest pose, growth is underway
Very happy with August so far
There’s challenges going on right now that try to pull me down, test my patience and outlook
As always I intend to face them head on, head held high and know that whatever outcome it’s just another step on the journey
Your actions should say what your goals are without you even needing to explain it
Actions speak louder than words
If your trolley is full of s**t you ain’t getting leaner
If you skip gym you ain’t getting bigger or stronger
If you don’t go to work you ain’t going to have money
You’ll find what you look for
Reasons why or excuses why not to
Choice is yours
Nothing good comes from staying comfortable
Investing in yourself is a risk worth taking
Unlocking your potential is a risk worth taking
If you don’t take risks you’ll stay stuck in the same place for years on end
Invest in yourself
Take the risk
If you could see the outcome of going all in
You’d take the risk
Don’t be mediocre
