10 days away from the official start to my off-season, Jan 20th, and i am ready to sling some weights again. Currently, this is the diet that i have been following:
Been dealing with some nagging back pain, which has turned into some nagging neck pain - never have had issues with back or neck, so this is all new to me, but WOW does it suck! Pushing through it, training around it, hoping to see it subside here soon - prob will wait another week and if its no better get it checked out - hoping for the best as i start my offseason here this week!!

I was for a while, and man i miss it! Once i moved to the burbs it was too far of a drive to get to on a regular basis. When i get into prep, i get some work done here and there, but unfortunately it’s not a luxury i can afford right now with work, gym, family, another baby on the way etc. Do you go regularly? Has it helped with any nagging ailments?
How is it working with Johnny? My boy works with him as well and he says he is the best coach he has had.
Hands down, best coach ive ever had. Ive only worked with 2 other coaches before him - and his attention to detail, his knowledge (and application of it) and his care for his clients is something that’s hard to come by. During previous preps I had a hard time getting updates, and was left to the wolves on game day – with Johnny he was Face Timing me every few hours, constant communication, diet/cardio/training updates every day if needed, or ever 3 weeks as needed – it was all based on how my body responded – couldn’t be happier with him and how much he has helped me.

For sure man and it showed when it came to your show last year! The level of conditioning you brought was crazy. How was your cardio looking last prep?

Yes, as we say in NY "I got a guy" - he is a chiro that does A.R.T. and he lifts so he understands what we go through. He was actually featured on the acclaimed series "Out of the Shadows" starring G-Six the bodybuilder:

It wasnt too bad, and it changed as we got closer to the show. It was 30 mins am, then another 30 mins post workout - i started to use medicine ball slams, and battle ropes for some HIIT post workout and in the morning, and really enjoyed that kind of cardio over the treadmill/stepper. I will admit i do have a sick love/hate with the stepper, so i would do a few stepper sessions a week as well.

Nice! Man, i wish i had the time that G-Six had, that guy lives.
New meal plan looks great, thats a ton of rice! You not much of a potato/yam guy? Diet looks lower in potassium containing foods.
not a yam guy, cant stand them, i will do potatos here and there. Great eye on the lack of potassium, i actually add 1/2tsp losalt to meal 4 and 1/8tsp losalt to my intra as well
