Week 11 of log:
Officially second last week of my time using, Raptor Labs products and me documenting it. They have been amazing to say the least, products have really helped my body composition, although I’m still the same weight.. ish, (currently 91kg fasted this morning) I feel allot leaner and allot stronger. Keen for the next phase of my journey.
It has been a much better week, diet and training wise. Still not 100%, but would say 80% at least. Strength has gone up again this week, with good form and still in a steep deficit. Diet is still strict and exactly the same macros, cardio has gotten allot easier again also! Felt great on the treadmill the other day.
Macros: 2k cals, 230p/120c/60-70f
B: protein yoghurt
M: 1 lean mince, rice veggies
M: 2 chicken breast, sweet pot, salad
M: 3 double scoop ISO whey shake
D: 4 eggs

Concludes the week, keen to work with Sassy and continue to work with Gains Man as next week will be my last log with Raptor Labs. I feel like I’m back on track and in a good head space again, few more kgs shed and I’ll be able to eat a decent amount of food every day again.
Couple of photos I took yesterday, abs are still hiding but starting to make an appearance with good lighting
