i never used to, but now I'm getting older, niggles turn into full blown problems because of it if you know what i mean, a tweak might take 6 month to shake off instead of a few weeks... my shoulder problem has dragged on over 2yrs, mainly because of this..
as for gaining size, Ive been at my biggest 20.7st, whilst working at least 6 days a week there, just a matter of eating more, something Ive never struggled with...
as for preps and diets, your never going to have two days the same, one day you could be smashing away with a heavy hammer all day, the next you could be doing something more intricate.. i never used to cycle my carbs, so id just reduce them as normal and hope for the best, once id qualify for the Britain's id take 4 weeks holiday leading up to try and get it spot on..
