April is here – so officially on countdown until prep starts in May! First show has been decided which I am very excited about – The Binous Classic in Dubai (and in typical Dubai style the biggest prize funds in amateur bodybuilding with 50,000 AED to the overall winner). I can’t lie I’ll have zero expectation on that one as if anyone has trained in Binous – you will that there’s something in the water with these Middle East genetics 😅
So with that said it’s into the final 4 weeks of Offseason and Sas is pushing me hard with food and training – minimal drugs right now (300 test / 300 NPP) but I feel I am growing very well from the level food is at.
We are trialing high days in this final phase of offseason which are 2x per week (noted below in line with my training split which fall after rest days and on the areas I’m trying to bring up)
This is helping me massively – as the two spikes of calories per week is giving me the ability to still be in a surplus across the week, yet I don’t have to have food as high every single day which is hugely beneficial for me when appetite is my downfall
On these day the macros will include a offplan meal (Sushi or Five Guys on Deliveroo is my absolutely go to)🤣 – along with insulin with m1 / pre / post (no insulin on other days)
If you refer to my Instagram post dated 01:04:23 you’ll see a run down of what the high days look like!

A question I often get asked – what supplements do I use on a daily basis?
There’s a lot haha – but what I will say is supplement with what YOU need as an individual, either based on blood work or a needs basis of what you struggle to get in via nutrition alone.
Struggle for protein? Whey or vegan
Struggle for veg? A green supplement
Struggle with digestion? A digestive aid
Struggle for sleep? A sleep aid
Struggle with sun exposure? Vitamin D3
You get the picture..
As otherwise you could take an endless list of supplements which cost more then your mortgage 😂
but anyway – here’s a full run through for you…
Of what I use year round

Supp Needs Multi vitamin + Omega
TBJP VIT D3 & K2
TBJP Love Heart
