Hi all,

Hope you are enjoying my updates & pictures of my comp diet journey 6weeks now have gone [quickly]. Diet doing ok except I keep thinking I am hungry most of the time, training is going great. Got Mad Dog with me on all training sessions now pushing me all the way [he will miss today Sun and Mon as had 7 stitches in his leg got kicked playing football].
Body wt 197 lbs, I thought I would be around 194 lbs by now so upping c/v work to every morning from now on [can cut back if needed].

April 10 2005 198lbs

HI all 2 weeks to go to my 1st show [Mr West] Body wt 198lbs coming in just about right Last week I twisted my left knee 2 days later every injury I have ever had manifested, I could hardy walk let alone train, but I did, my good friend Andy Foster [former strongman competitor now a lean, muscular 200lbs - you look great man!] was visiting when I went to get out of the chair to make him a brew he say how the hell are you training you can just about get up that's how bad it was then 3 days ago the only pain I have is in my left knee and right rear delt all very strange. Mad Dog pushing me all the way and looking good himself so should be on target. The 2nd show I was doing the EPF Mr Britain has been cancelled so the 2nd one will now be the MR SOLENT CITY June 4th,then a bit of a break from dieting [5weeks] for competing in September through till end of November hopefully getting six shows in. I will try and get some pic's up the day before Mr WEST and a lot of the show day. VEGAN-POWER-ROBBIE x
