I have been invited to a photoshoot in London for Mens Fitness Magazine.
They plan to do a little feature on me outlining the story of my transformation from April through to the present.
My plan as far as training goes is SIZE!!!
I am looking to gain around 10kg by the end of November and then shred the body fat for the shoot.
My main aim from this is a bigger upperbody as I always sacrifice this to achieve the lean look in my latest photos.
The last week of October will be spent consuming more food so my body is ready to handle the high calorie diet throughout November and to begin training heavy again.
Training will be as follows;
Mon-CHEST & TRICEPS
Tue-REST
Wed-BACK & BICEPS
Thur- REST
Fri- SHOLDERS & CHEST
Sat- LEGS
Sun- REST
As you will notice, alot more rest than normal(time to grow) and no cardio at all. Added to a High Calorie diet of 3000-4000 calories, I am expecting to look a bit different to my latest pics! But it will give me more to work with and then a tight diet, added cardio and slight different style of resistance training, I will have a better 'V-SHAPE' for the shoot....I HOPE!! LOL
I will add pics throughout November for amusement.....JB

OCTOBER UPDATE
I have decided to enter an underwear competition hosted by CALVIN KLEIN.
My aim for this comp was to be ultra lean and my training included alot more cardio then normal in order to achieve this.
I booked a photoshoot session with PULSE8IMAGES for the end of October which allowed me two and a half weeks to get in shape.
My diet became super strict and I was training 6 days a week leading up to the shoot.
Training included Pyramid Resistance work, mixed cardio and heavy ABS sessions.
I cut my carbs to literally nothing in the last week and used water depletion over the last 4 days.
We also had some ideas for props to help update my portfolio.

I have some of the pictures from the shoot, however they are rough copies and are currently being tweaked as we speak....

OCTOBER '09
A new month is here and so much has been going on for me..
I received the phonecall I was waiting on from Maximuscle to tell me I have made the final 3 for the Cover Model Category and I was to attend a photoshoot to determine the winner.
On top of this, not so good news, I found out my long term girlfriend had cheated on me..NICE ONE!!
Anyway, I attended the Finals in Stevenage and just want to say I had an amazing time. The photographer was great, very professional and the Maximuscle staff were really friendly and helpful. The two guys I was up against were in great shape, all different physiques, which made it interesting and we got on really well. Infact I am still in touch with one of them via Facebook.
So now it was a waiting game...
I took a week off from training to completely recover and spend some time with friends, family that I had been too busy with the preperation to spend time with and treated myself to some well deserved vice foods!!
While I was waiting on the result from Maximuscle, I used the photos I had taken by Ovan Photography to gain some interest from fitness magazines and modelling agencies and push a career as a fitness model.
I have had some really promising news form a well known magazine and have recently been accepted by Models Direct in London but it was the phonecall I received on the 7th October that I was waiting for...
I won my category...MAXIMUSCLE COVER MODEL WINNER 2009
Pictures from the final will follow shortly..
