Competing can be a strain on personal relationships. Especially the first time you and yours go through the process. Periodization when your serious about competing goes beyond the event and the gym, it’s about Periodization of your life as well. Work with me Evilcounsel@teamevilgsp.com

Intensity and effort. It’s something so many seem to be missing in their training. This was such an awesome session with @teamevilgsp and the end of this set shows why, one set to failure and beyond being pushed by someone who knows what hard training is. This was an ascending set on the ISO row (which is really difficult btw). The importance of a good training partner cannot be overstated it’s something Broderick understands full. A good training partner can be critical to your success and advancement in training. It’s not just someone training next to you , it’s someone training with you. Phones away, hard training, no overthinking, just progress to be made.

A great discussion on Halo from our last kitchen conversation. This discussion focused on short acting compounds. Halo is one that many often misunderstand the use and duration of. Understand what you are doing and work with someone who can help and teach you. So much potential is left on the table when you blindly follow improper advice

Some thoughts from our journeys in and around London recently. Technology is a huge part of our lives but it’s so important to get away from time to time. Clear your mind. Think, reflect, sit out in the sun, spend time with those around you and have a meaningful conversation. @teamevilgsp and I go on these trips and spend huge amounts of time simply walking and talking, enjoying each other’s company and learning from each other. When we got to @richardfoster1988 house we did the same thing, just in a larger group. In fact, that’s the real joy of each of these trips and it’s critical to our growth and learning and more important than any technology. These things are so important to your physical and mental health. Embrace some time away.

During our recent sojourn to Las Vegas we had a fantastic conversation about short acting compounds and the last two weeks leading up to an event. Here, we talk a bit about the use of Nicotine as a really solid but overlooked option for short term stimulus and focus. There’s A LOT from this conversation that I can’t wait to share.

Remember, barbell sports are a long term game. You don’t get good overnight, you get good over years and years of adherence and hard work. The faster you realize the importance of not being in a rush and understanding the time it really takes and embracing that, you will make more progress. Stop looking for shortcuts and easy buttons. They don’t exist.

The amazing @charlton_banks joined myself and @teamevilgsp for our most recent kitchen conversation in Las Vegas. We had some great conversations about enjoyment in the gym, training, gear, and other topics. The message here, enjoy your training. I harp on this a lot. Don’t do something because some study said it would work or it works for someone else. Enjoy what you do and you’ll get much more out of it. Some awesome content from those discussions to come!

Back to our London park “kitchen” conversation (just imagine I have a chef’s hat on it’s close enough). There is a lot of lore around the negatives of DHB and most of it is inaccurate. We have studied a lot of bloodwork (dosages from 20mg to 600mg) and spoken to as many users as we can about their dosage and duration and so far the drug is not appearing to have negative impacts on bloodwork. As many things are on the internet people like to make claims to information they don’t have. Either whether to get views or simply based out of assumption and stupidity. It’s possible there is a belief the drug must be harsh due to the strength of the compound but so far we haven’t seen it. We do actual data collection, not just assumption. The compound continues to fascinate us and we continue to collect data.

It’s so easy to push and push but sometimes a break is what is more important. Not only for you but your significant other and your family. The big picture is so much more important but understanding it can often be difficult to see. Making sure you take a break is not only crucial but necessary for your relationships, mental and physical health, and your long term success in the sport. The discipline to compete in the sport is the same discipline required to be able to take a step back and understand how important that is. You and the people you work with should understand and plan for this.
