A typical day

So a typical day for me goes like this. Alarm goes off at 5.05, 10 minutes snooze (trying to get out of that habit) then up, dressed, teeth cleaned and downstairs for breakfast. Breakfast consists of half a cup of oats, handful of almonds, banana and smothered with semi skimmed milk, all washed down with a black coffee.

I leave the house at 5.35 to start work at 6. 2 and a half hours of work then break for my second breakfast which is a tin of mackerel, 3-4 scrambled eggs and a rasher of bacon, oh and a cup of water.

Back to work at 9-12 then lunch which is anything from a salad, jacket potato, chicken and veg, leftover tea from the day before or 3 large slices of cooked meat wrapped around some salad. Then back to it at 12.30.

I leave work roughly around 2 o’clock and straight to the sunbeds for a 9 minute power nap 😴 . Then I go home, get changed for the gym, quick check on the animals, something else to eat. A couple of spoonfuls of peanut butter or a handful of nuts with a cup of coffee does the job. I also take a 9 gram serving of BCAAs 20 minutes before I workout.

Off to the gym I go to meet my gym buddy at 3.15 for an hour of non stop weights and 5-10 minutes of cardio before picking my daughter up from school at 4.30, phew 😅 I’m out of breath ☺️.

I have a whey protein shake with a 5 gram serving of creatine in it as soon as I leave the gym, like in the car on the way to the school . Home by 5 for us to sit down for tea at 6 ish.

Supplements I use.

Tea or dinner, depending on where you’re from is anything really as long as it’s healthy and fills me up. Fish and veg, frittata, pork one pot, lamb dinner with potatoes and veg, it’s endless. Then a couple of hours with the kids before bed.

Once the kids are in bed we go out and feed the animals, fill there waters up and do anything else that needs doing. Finally we sit down for a bit of mindless tv with a casein protein shake and another handful of nuts or some peanut butter before bed.

It’s a non stop day most days but seeing results makes it all worth while. Plus you feel like you’re actually achieving something. You either choose to USE whatever spare time you have in the day or you don’t, simple..
