New Year, Same me, Just this time a little bit smarter ;) 

So to start the new year I trained this morning at Fitness First Basingstoke as always. I trained Back, however I'm starting to feel injuries coming along so I've booked in with a sports therapist to help me avoid any injury developing. 

My right forearm is fatiguing way too quickly and harshly in my back workouts so I need to look after it a lot more. I'm also feeling the oddest painful lump under the skin on my left ankle :( Which sends sharp pains into my foot so I will make sure I take it easy where I need to.

Diet today was the last time having higher Training day macros, as of tomorrow my calories will be lowered to help cement progress this January. 

Training day diet:

7am Oats, whey, banana & jam <3 
7.30am Coffee
Trained Back & Biceps, plus cardio as always!
11.30am Lean beef mince, baby potatoes, veg, greek yoghurt & fruit
2.30m Soaked oats, chia seeds and strawberries, dark chocolate, egg whites
5.30pm Chicken, sweet potato, veg
8.30pm Chicken, bown rice, butternut squash & veg

Back workout consisted mainly of different row variations, all sets to failure working in different rep ranges. Was a great workout, and as it was first thing on new years day it was pretty empty too!
