Team Flexr6 Comp Prep Report 19/2013 11AUG13
35 days out – INBA Lifestyle Classic
42 days out – INBA ACT
49 days out – INBA NSW
With only 5 weeks to go which is a very, very short time when prepping for comp I have had some pleasing results over the last week (see data below). The waist is coming down as expected at about 1cm per week – the goal is to have a 76cm waist at INBA Lifestyle Classic then smaller for the INBA ACT and smaller again for INBA NSW.
Cms & Kgs
Weight 78.0 (-0.4)
Waist 80 (-1.0)
Arms 41 (-0.5)
Calf 37 (+0.5)
Chest 116.5 (0)
Hip 83 (0)
Thigh 51.5 (0)
Most other bodyparts have held their size. I attribute this to four key factors:
1. Bioflex Jointz has greatly reduced the inflammation and soreness in my joints (elbows & knees) and has allowed me to turn back the clock 3 years and to train heavy again
2. Training heavy with compound movements has kept my muscle mass intact. This is evident through the increase in poundages/reps on every bodypart every workout and the maintenance of size for most bodyparts.
3. Bioflex Creaflex, Glutaflex, Biocharge & Biofurnace have allowed me to intentionally hold more water in the muscle. This has allowed me to lift heavier for longer periods.
4. Nutrition has been almost 100% as I have had very few low blood sugar experiences this comp prep. I have been using minimal carbs but precisely timing their input to fuel training and to replace glycogen stores post workout.
