Lightly muscled

After many years of training I have now developed a bit of muscle, enough to call myself ‘lightly muscled’. So far this year my training has added onto the base I’ve been building over the last 5 years. My body doesn’t gain muscle easily, so I’vve had to work very hard. Never missing a training session not even when travelling, plus attention to my diet means that I now stand in good stead for more good results in the sport I compete in. I am now in the dieting down/reducing bodyfat phase which because I’ve paid attention to detail over the winter months, means I don’t have to reduce my food intake as much as previous years – but I do have to be very particular. I’ve been told ‘No eating out’ because I need to be 100% certain of not only ingredients but the exact amounts I am consuming. This means I won’t be able to offer dinner date bookings until at least October and possibly a bit longer – just depends on how well I do. Once eating out is possible I will let you know as soon as possible. Also during this period it’s helpful if you don’t present me with chocolates, sweets or cakes. I really love food but for now I’m focused on doing what I need to do.

All the best
