I decided to stop the diet today. I've been trying to revise for a masters exam (in 3 weeks), but I couldn't concentrate at all Friday/yesterday morning. I know that's a sign of my T being low and although I suppose that's to be expected, I couldn't not revise. I carbed up yesterday morning and managed plenty of revision in the afternoon. I could have gone another week if it wasn't for the exam.

I'm still looking lean today but had a great pump this morning :)

I didn't have much time this morning, it may not be much but it's better than nothing.

My workouts over the next 2 weeks will be avoiding puttimg heavy weight through my legs. I've still got an injury to the outside of my foot (from running) but due to squats and deadlifts, particularly sumo deadlifts, it's not healing. I'm going on holidays in 2 weeks and it's going to involve lots of walking so need to get this healed asap.

Short session again. Tbh since stopping deadlifts and squatting to rest my foot, I've lost all interest in the gym. These short sessions are all I feel like I can do.

Anyway I'm on holidays for two weeks from Sunday so I'll switch up what I train and eat and drink lots :D The cut starts on 1st Oct :D
