Since the last update, training has gone as it should go. Volume and intensity is at maximum. Training routine is still the same, only minor changes. This week we´ll change to a different routine for back, my weakest body part.  Let´s see how this works, if it will turn wise change, I will keep it in total routine and tell more about it.

Body weight still going up, 24.11 it was 302lbs before workout. High carbs brought some water but now my condition is steady and I have almost lost some fat in this week. Body weight is now almost highest ever and I´m getting more lean, so direction is right.

I was at some powerlifting competitions, it makes me wanna bench press again for real and training at Bullfarm is just like putting gas to flames.  It maybe that Bull is to be seen at some bench press competitions during the spring.

I have been contacted several times about my 2-phase recovery, so here goes.
Right after training:

• UFS R2 35g
• UFS creatine 5g
• UFS glutamine 10g
• UFS leucine 10Gg
• UFS malto 50g

45min after

• UFS R3
• C-vitamin 1000mg

Next blog update includes some new photos.

The growth time

Ready 2 grow

I have now recovered from competing season and it´s time to boost up training volume and start to eat more. I have kept my condition pretty lean after competitions, light cardio ED and moderate amount of calories, I will do changes after 26.10. I have been training normally, but volume of sets has been lower.

After 26.10 I will increase training volume to the maximum and calories will be 5500kcal. 500g prot, 700g carbs and 70g fat.

Last off-season I didn´t go over 5000kcal, I´m now excited to see how my body will react to this new calorie intake.

Bull is ready to grow!!! Goal is to get 20 pounds of pure muscle, that is a shitload of muscle, but I have always set my goals high enough. I will tell more about off-seasin training later on.

Next time I will feature at Eastbody 31.10, welcome everyone.

23.10 Strongchannel.com will stream my training session, and that is LIVE.

Last saturday I was at gym witch is owned by my good friend Samuli Koutajoki and his business partner Otto Makkonen. www.kuntokeskuskm.fi is a new gym in Lahti Finland, I recommend it to everyone. I executed a normal routine for arms and some poses for fans.

For now I´m keeping my weight down because of seminars and training sessions with fans. Next time I will be in Oulu.

Competition season is now over for me. Tampa was a total disaster, no excuses, but I will do some changes what comes to finalizing my condition in the future. This thime I was able to ruin my best condition ever in few days, photos will tell the truth about this epic fail.

Back to normal life and I´m definitely not giving up, I´m aiming to goals I have set up before, harder this time. Positive thing from Tampa is that I got new contacts and Tampa pro was a high quality competition with professional arrangements in every way.

My next competition is yet to be published, I will decide it later on. Now I got to focus on my weak body parts, so work continues.

Now I´m starting to feel this diet, but competition is soon and that gives me strength to carry on. Week 5 was like week 4, just more posing and poses are locking into what I want them to be. For the first time I´m taking posing enough serious.

Competitor list for Tampa is like 20 guys and list is interesting. Game is on, and I´ll do anything to fulfill my goals.
