Another gym session!

This evenings blog is going to be on my gym session tonight. Loving the gym at the minute, there weren't any kids in there tonight which was a bonus! haha! In tonights gym session I did chest, abs (again) haha, biceps, traps and lats. Awesome session! I will show you that in a bit.... just an update on the supplements! Last night I wrote that the My Protein Thermo-Extreme tablets did not work well with the PHD Synergy all in one and I think I have worked out why.... last night I had taken the tablets after I had had my Synergy drink, as it says have it an hour before the gym an the tablets are 45 minutes before the gym! Tonight however I took the tablets before the Synergy (being the crazy cat I am haha) and it worked really well, sweating loads, sounds gross ,but it's all good! So if anybody is on the same supplements have the tablets first! haha! I completely forgot to tell you how the weight is going as well, my bad I'm sorry! Just under two weeks ago I was 13 stone bang on.... I weighed myself after the gym tonight and I came in at 12 stone 6!!!! Thats a total of 6 pounds lost so far! I feel more toned and feel great! MY Protein Thermo-Extreme tablets WORK!!!! Doing an awesome job, hopefully you guys should see this in the picture on the weekend, I hope! haha

Gym session!

Hello people, on this wonderful and eventful evening I shall be talking about my gym session! To start off with I went to the gym, walked in and there were a load of kids about 14 years old in there.... so I was like WTF, one there too young and two there pissing around! Really annoyed me! So I carried on like a trooper. I was just starting my shoulder press and they start messing around with a bar and seeing how much they could lift up over there head (knowing it was going to be disastrous!) I let them go to see if they would hurt themselves and teach them a lesson! So I was on my third set and one of the little shits nearly dropped a weight on my head... so at this point I flipped... turned around and ripped them apart saying get of the gym, your too young, your pissing about and you nearly dropped the weight on my head! clearly I swore a lot more in my rant HA! They started getting all lippy to which my response was.... you haven't even hit puberty yet, so you shouldn't be in the gym lifting stupid weights trying to be a man! RINSED! haha rant over! haha

Onto my session tonight. This evening I did a session on shoulders, triceps, lower back and those all important abs! This was also my first night on my my new supplement PHD Synergy all in one. Took this about 60 minutes before my session with two full scoops and 300 mls of water and then shortly after my session exactly the same! I also took my My Protein Thermo-Extreme tablets 45 minutes before my session as well! I don't think this was a good combination as the tablets raised my core temperature for the first 30 mins of my session but didn't really have an affect after that! But still, I had a good gym session! For your delight here it is:

Shoulders:

• Dumbbell Raise (lateral) 3*10 sets
• Dumbbell Raise (Front) 3*10 sets
• Dumbbell Shrug 3*15
• Dumbbell Bench Press (Incline, Overhand grip) 3*12
• Bodyweight Pushup (Decline, Regular grip)

Triceps:

• Dumbbell Tricep Extension (Incline Bench) 3*15
• Cable Pushdown (overhand Grip) 3*15
• Dumbell Tricep Extension (Seated) 3*12
• Tricep Dips (Regular grip) max out

Lower Back:

• Barbell Deadlift 3*15
• Dumbbell Side Bend 3*15
• Barbell Twist 2*25

Abdominal

• Bodyweight Sit up 3*50
• Bodyweight Leg raises (lying, Sraight legs) 3*50
• The plank 2*1 minute holds (1 minute break in between)
• Cable Woodchopper (High) 3*15
• Bodyweight Crunch (Obliques) 3*15

So there was my session for this evening, aching a lot right now but all worth it! I did a lot on the abs tonight as I missed out last evening.... Gutted! I shall be going to the gym again tomorrow night and will be informing you on how that goes. Hope you find this useful in anyway, whether you are taking an activity or a whole muscle group workout! If you have any queries don't hesitate to get in contact... again how to contact will be put in links below! oooshhh

Protein drink!

Good evening guys, today has been a very strange day, and to be honest I don't really know why! Just really weird! haha Anyway tonight is going to be a short one....
I blogged yesterday about my new protein and protein drink and I thought that I would have my drink today and to be honest it was really really nice! I had it halfway through the day and I have played a whole game of football this evening and I am not aching at all! really good buy! Will be getting a few of those again! keen! The only problem I had with it was that after you drank it, it made me have such a dry mouth! Cotton mouth! Thought I would just give you an update on how that went! Even though the cotton mouth was there I will be buying these again... espcially as they have 40g of protein in them! haha

Thats the end of this blog, but I will be blogging tomorrow about my gym session and how the new all in one solution is working!

Talk to you tomorrow guys!

Buy of the week!

Good evening people! Today I am very excited as I have my new purchase! Hell yeh! I was paid today so I thought I woud have a cheeky £40 quid spend and I hope it's worth it! So here it is:

This is the PHD Synergy-ISO-7 all in one solution. My friend and I got two of these for £75.90 quid so it worked out at £37.95 each.... Good maths! haha My friend has been on this for a few weeks and he said it has helped improve his performance in the gym and gain lean muscle.... not fat! We got this deal from Monster Supplements and I think that it's a great deal (I shall put the link down below)! This product has had a 4 star rating from Supplement reviews, and has been proven to be a great post and pre workout solution (link down below)! It has your regular 37g of protein per 60g serving but has less carbohydrates in that serving (18g)! Sounds awesome and I can't wait to try it!!! On the pot its suggests two servings of this a day, one before and after the workout. For the pre workout it states that it should be taken 60-90 mins before the workout having two level scoops with 300-350mls of cold water or milk. For the post workout it says exactly the same but just straight after your workout (usually within 20 minutes of finishing)

Next item bought today:

PHD Whey-Zero drink cranberry flavour! As me and my mate had to spend over £80 quid in one order to get a free bee, we bought one of these each to reach that! According to the wrapper, this drink alone has 40g of protein in it and has less than 1g of carbohydrates! Thats a lot of protein.... gain muscle booyah... why not! Have never tried this but I am going to tomorrow and I will talk about that then! On the packet it suggests having 1-2 serving of this a day (one serving being the whole bottle.... and I only have one, OOPS) But like I said I will be talking about how it goes tomorrow!

In total I have spent £40 smackers on all of this, and in with all of this came a little shaker which I am dead impressed with! HA! Anyway that is the end of this blog, I hope you have found this useful and I will be letting people know how I am getting on! All the links will be below including all my contact details if you have any queries!

Ooooosshhh

Face off video and me!

Hello there guys, been a couple of days since I blogged, sorry about that! First bit to talk about today is my very first Youtube video.... ahhhhhh! Basically for about 2 hours yesterday me, the mrs and my mate jack went off to video me showing different face techniques that can be used! I was a tad bit nervous in it tbh and I do tend to yammer on a lot in it.... HAHA (nervous laugh)! 

Like I said we were there for 2 hours filming and after all of the editing and twiddly bits I managed to get a 7 minute video haha. Well worth the two hours of "nope I don't like that... do it again" or "shit I did it wrong" LOL! 

In my video I talk about facing. The techniques I talk about are:

• The clamp
• The rake
• The plunger
• The laser
• The jammer
• Down the line 
• .... and pumping

Basically I can talk to you about these but its easier to show you:

Haha you can tell I'm nervous in it! But I think it went well for my first ever Youtube video! lol! Spread the word if you liked it!

Moving on, as I said in one of my previous blogs I was going to upload a picture of me after week 1 of going to the gym and taking the My Protein Thermo-Extreme tablets... as promised here is the picture:

As you can see, not the most massive guy in the world but oh well... hopefully after a few weeks this should get a lot better (I hope) I need to work more on my left pectoral as that looks a bit..... ummmm weak! :S haha! I looked at the picture and was like do I really look like that.... I look so weird! There will be another picture put up next week whether the sun is shining or not....hope you have enjoyed the blog guys!

You camp all weekend, play lax in the day and get drunk by night!!! Could not ask for a better weekend if you ask me!

This year the the dates are the 8th, 9th and 10th of June! You arrive on the Friday afternoon, set your mansion up (tent) and the place is usually buzzing by 6-7 oclock! Lacrosse absolutely everywhere. On the saturday night there is a party thrown and this year its jungle theme, so I intend on getting tarzanned up hahaha! I will most definitely be vlogging about this weekend, the games, the teams, the players, and how I am actually getting on! I am also taking around £200 with me so I will be buying some lacrosse gear whilst up there!!! keeeeeen!

Right heres the teams for the actual tournament, some sick teams:

This is my personal shirt that I play in! I love the design and I love the logo,  and playing in a beater just makes life so much easier although its easier for the opposition to cut you up and bruise you a little easier.... but a few man up pills and toughen up cream will sort that right out! If you see one of these tops and you are at bluesfest pop your head over and say hello! haha basically..... get your ass to bluesfest! HA

Gunna love you and leave you again.... enjoy guys! ooosshhhh

Big hits lax video....

Another busy day has been completed, and to finish off my day I thought I would inform you guys about my day and put in a big lacrosse hits video on..... always a great thing to watch and then do if your in a bad moooooood! haha

Today was just another day but I was just so pissed off all day, I was so snappy and angry! I think it is because of the lack of lacrosse that I am playing at the minute, I need to hit some people with a stick and smash somebody good! jeez I'm an agry person hahahaha! Basically me being angry and pissy all day just sums up my day so I'm not going to blab about that anymore!!! lol

One of my favourite hits that I put in whilst playing lacrosse was when I was at university and we were playing against our arch enemies, Plymouth uni (scum)! I'll set the scene..... So there I was ready to smash some people up, in our own half the opposition were pinging the ball around and somehow we had thrown the ball away, I had pushed up the field to about halfway to where there right middie was sprinting with towards the ball, unknowingly to that player I had started to sprint towards the ball as well. I quickly realised that I was not going to be able to get the ball so continued to sprint and smash him from the side knocking him out of play about 2-3 meters (decent hit) haha to which I followed shortly after saying 'BOOM TAKE THAT' whilst he was on floor! I had knocked the guy out which had impressed the team. As the player took off his helmet, to get water, he basically had snot and dribble all up his face.... so I calmly walked over and said to him in a smug tone "you look like a mess" hahaha and trotted off with a skip in my step ! hahaha! I was impressed with myself basically! lol


Anyway here is the video as promised... hope you enjoy!

Also guys this weekend I am intending on doing my first ever vlog.... (exciting) was wondering whether to start off with face tactics or just a simple one like baking my lacrosse head? if you could guys drop a little comment so I can see what you guys would like to see would be awesome?

Chow chow
