For the Advanced method you can perform
shrugs with the barbell behind the back for extra
sets. It would be advisable to replace shrugs
with a rear delts exercise like reverse pec dec or
Bent Over Laterals every two weeks, so two
weeks of shrugging one week hitting rear delts
and so on.

years to build my physique. After a substantial
period of time I needed to advance my routine and
make it more intense and more challenging. To do
this, the key was to increase volume; volume of sets

HEALTHY
EATING
his is the healthy eating plan I follow based
T on eating clean beneficial foods. What I eat in
the six meals I have everyday is nutritionally
balanced, includes all my five-a-day portions, a
weekly recommended portion of oily fish to provide
Omega 3, and a dairy product for calcium. It is
because of this that I have been successful in
increasing my muscle mass over the years while
maintaining low body fat.

MY COOKING PREP
The 5 day meal guide is an accurate (but not
limited) outline of what I eat on a daily basis.
These meals are predominately high in protein, low
fat, low in sodium and full of essential vitamins and
nutrients. The carbohydrates are low on the glycemic
index; this keeps blood sugar levels steady and can
even help your body metabolize fat more efficiently.
Notes on my meals:
* When frying I cook with olive oil and use no more
than a small spoonful or olive oil spray.

Nutrition Advice
Protein
Protein is responsible for multiple functions in
your body, it is an essential nutrient needed for
building muscle, tissue and cells. Everyone needs
protein in their diet, but as bodybuilders/weight
trainers you need to increase your protein intake.
Below is a list of good protein sources.

Nutrition Advice
Complex Carbohydrates - Low Glycemic Index
Pasta and Rice (white bread, pasta and rice have
been refined and our bodies cannot use what’s
left for anything) porridge oats, Bran flakes,
Weetabix are all great cereals full of wholegrain
nutrition and will also keep you fuller for longer
therefore providing better fuel for training. Avoid
cereals that are refined and have a high sugar
content.
1.) Brown Rice
Brown rice is one of the richest sources of
carbohydrate. A single cup of brown rice has
approximately 45 grams of carbohydrate.
Wholegrain rice is considered to be healthier
than white rice (refined grains) because they
contain more vitamins, fibre and minerals. They
are lower in their glycemic index making them
absorb more slowly providing more lasting
energy and promote less fat storage.
2.) Oats
Oats has always been my breakfast of choice with
a banana and a handful of almonds. One cup of
oats gives you an abundant 54g of
carbohydrates.

Nutrition Advice
Healthy Fats
Saturated and Trans fats which are can be found
in large quantities in bacon, sausages, processed
meats, butter, etc are bad for you, they raise your
cholesterol and increase the risk of heart disease.
Poly & Monounsaturated fats are good for you,
lowering cholesterol and reducing your risk of
heart disease.
1.) Avocados
Avocados are high in monounsaturated fat which
is the healthy kind that actually lowers bad
cholesterol. One medium avocado contains
about 30g of fat.
2.) Eggs
Eggs are an easy source of protein, while it's true
that an egg yolk contains fat (around 5g of fat)
only 1.5g is saturated.
3.) Nuts
Along with unsaturated fats, both
monounsaturated and polyunsaturated which
lower bad cholesterol levels, nuts also contain
omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy form of fatty acid
that to helps your heart.

Nutrition Advice
Vegetables
It is essential to include vegetables in your diet,
their benefits to your health and progression are
huge. Below are the main vegetables I have with
the majority of my meals.
Vegetable Benefits
Firstly half the calories are protein and its low in
fat. Asparagus has high levels of potassium,
which helps control blood pressure and iron
Asparagus
which boost the body’s immune system. It is high
in dietary fibre, folic acid and vitamin A which
play a vital role in fighting cancer.

Nutrition Advice
AVOID Excess - Simple Carbohydrates
Simple carbohydrates are found naturally in
foods such as fruits, milk, and milk products
which are fine in moderation but they are also
found in high quantities in the following:
• Sugars (Maltose, Glucose, Sucrose)
• Honey/Syrup
• Sweets (Candy)
• White rice
• Potatoes (instant, mashed)
• White bread
• Flaked cereals (Corn flakes, etc.)
• Jams
• Soft drinks
• Donuts
Simple Carbohydrates (for the most part) cause a
quick insulin spike, complex carbohydrates cause
slower insulin rises and are less likely to increase
appetite. It is recommended complex
carbohydrates should make up the majority of
your carbohydrates intake.
11
Nutrition Advice
Hydration
Give or take, the body is about 60% water, all the
systems in your body depend on water. Water
carries nutrients to your cells and flushes the
toxins out of your vital organs.
To stay healthy, it's important to replace the
fluids we lose when we perspire, breathe or
urinate. It is recommended that you drink 3 litres
of total beverages a day, for women 2.2 litres of
total beverages a day.
When you engage in any activities that make you
sweat, like intense weightlifting, you need to
drink extra water to compensate for the fluid loss.
An extra 400 to 600 millilitres of water for short
bouts of exercise, but more intense exercise for
an hour or more requires more fluid intake. How
much additional hydration you need will depend
much you sweat during exercise.

DO YOU
NEED
THEM?
Are supplements 100% necessary to see progress, no, but they definitely
help in regards to speeding up the process of packing on lean muscle and
improving strength. Taking supplements will prime your body to absorb
and utilize more protein, recover faster, and ultimately will keep you in an
anabolic, muscle building state throughout more of the day
