why you dehydrated?

Not sure, but we can probably rule out diabetes in this case.

lots of positive feedback from the people at the gym, feeling pretty confidant for the shows, entry forms in and confirmed.

Just been for a walk with the dogs, really bad cramps in hamstrings on way back, must be a little dehydrated, just loading up with fluids
Started sunbeds this week
will post an update pic tomorrow

cheers mate, going to a new gym opening tomorrow meeting some of the guys from a new up and coming supplement company, they are doing lots of promotions at shows and sponsoring a lot of new bodybuilders.
Bit of networking didn't do anyone any harm...

👍🏻  Looking tighter & it's not the best quality pic.
And no muscle tears that I can see - It's sadly fairly common to see as we get older.
Is it 3wks out now.

How was the new gym opening - go well.

no muscle tears  (fingers crossed), dont fuck about with heavy weights, all moderate weights and reps
its just a pic from the mac built in camera, I dont have a camera phone, i look a lot tighter this morning, hams and glutes are sharpening and my low back which was a problem last year is a lot better, tighter and drier than it was on show day last year, its 3 weeks to my warm up show and 4 weeks to the main show.
the gym opening is today, looking forward to seeing some of the UKs top guys and girls.

Excellent all good news.
Ahead of where you were at last year and still got enough time to get leaner
& fill out nicely for your main comp.

Sadly for me I have a damaged left pec & tricep/elbow - motorbike accident.
It's the main reason I stopped competing.

Let's us know who you rub shoulders with today.
Enjoy

I just bench press occasionally normally a warm up excercise, I only use 25 a side
my core exercises are machine decline press and flys and cables.
nothing for upper chest as i dont think you can develop different parts of the chest, you either have thick upper pecs or you dont.

i think you have to look at 2 ways yes once your genetic limit is met size wise nothing can be done,shape we know is at birth,but those little extras a tweak o a movement or slow/fast rep /hold/squeeze or even a slightly higher angle on bench pad can stress certain parts of the chest,,a point on a leverone thread was certain yrs his chest was smaller than usual or better due to less front delt 'over blown'size wise,guy was a wicked pressure strength wise and his side chest pose was great ,,from front he looked less chest wise,,i don't know just my opinion,,u look great man,,maybe some in or careful done bench to neck'gironda'special can maintain the clavicle upper chest tie in,,

fair one if it works for you. I like low incline BB press and flys myself. maybe you should throw in some incline machine press like Hammer strength. not nit picking but i am sure you could fill out more in the upper chest.

yes good post. press to neck is effective but risky for some. not an exercise to go heavy on.

easier than  last year as I crash dieted last year in around 9 weeks, I did 15 weeks this year.
Its getting gruelling a bit now as I dont have a lot to come off, Im constantly fatigued, not tired, fatigued.
