Day 6: touch ups

On my 6th day, I will pick 2 to 3 body parts I think that are lagging and do a touch-up. I may do a circuit, or I may pick 2 to 3 exercises for each group. I really focus on the muscle and take time to make sure I’ve worked it effectively. These days I normally lift very light, strict form, high reps.

Diet

Without nutrition, I wouldn’t be where I am at today. So it is the foundation that everything else is laid upon. Depending on how I want to look, or if I have a contest coming up, it’s through nutrition that I make those changes.

I eat about every 2.5 to 3 hours. I also have a shake and a banana after my training session. In my on-season diet, I taper my carbs down as I go into the show. I also have carb cycled in the past but for my next contest, I will do a gradual deplete.
