Will upload physique images tomorrow post check in. May post a list of full day of rest day eating too.
Progressions have been fairly consistent over last 4 weeks. Taking time to ramp up intensity, big focus on recovering well between sessions.
Recovery for me; Supplementation of CURCUMIN, Sleep Supps and calming down before post work out meal ASHWAGHANDA and MAG BI-GLYS. Average now 7 hours of sleep, trying to get more and improve quality!
