Dissappointing day at PCA finals, didnt make top 6, 18 in the class
I did get placed in the centre of the second call out after they did the first 6

I think you need to get placed top six in the quarter turns, they did 1 run through with 6 then 1 run through with everyone else so you know instantly if you made top 6

I tried something different with sodium and carbs this time and again looked shitty and no pump
Not sure if its nerves or anxiety thats causing the problem if it is then Im fucked


Will go back to very low carbs now for the next two weeks and as I said I feel better on low carbs and look tighter

Will do the Universe then UK the week after then decide if Im going to carry on based on how I look at these shows

the thing hank doesn't realize is Joe could find a different mr. Podunk every weekend and win the overall.

but hank brags that he is better because he is the least shitty of three guys in the lowest level contest
while Joe is competing nationally.

October 16, 2023

Quads,Hamstrings,Calves:

Unilateral Leg Presses - 5 X 15 (constant weight,brief resting)
Leg Extensions - 4 X 20,15,15,12
Adductor Machine - 4 X 30,20,15,15
Abductor Machine - 2 X 30,20

Seated Leg Curls - 5 X 20,20,15,15,12

Leg Press Calf Raise - 5 X failure

Nothing heavy,just moderate weights,but I made up for it by training with very brief rest periods..........a really intense workout with lots of rest pausing.

I had literally no desire to train today after moving and stacking a ton of firewood all weekend coupled with my insomnia.

I`m glad I went though,I had a great pump, and a pretty decent day, considering the circumstances.

Has a great feel to it. Our main gym doesn't have one, it's got some other brand which isn't as good...
