Hey, sorry this is a bit of a late reply and you may have had a response by now, there are 4 established natural bodybuilding federations in the UK:

UKDFBA (affiliated with the WNBF) - United...

Yeah all gym's in the UK are closed (and rightly so imo under the circumstances). I'm quite enjoying the challenge and novelty of home workouts at the moment, so on the topic, has anyone got any...

All my opinion of course but I think a good degree of the strength loss is psychological, at your current body composition and based on the rate of loss in your first month, I wouldn't expect any...

I stand corrected, after a Google search multiple sources stated leucine to be around 7.4g per 100g, hence my post above.

Looking into it further the amount of leucine has been misinterpreted by...

Perfect, thank you.

Coincidentally my pre-workout meal consists of a vegan protein powder and oats - just looked at the amino acid profile of oats and they're particularly high in leucine...

I agree, I don't mean to come across as pedantic about it just wondering what consensus was when supplementing with a vegan protein powder - particularly in-light of that study.

Thanks for the...

PPL split, no I have varied protein sources (animal meats, dairy and plant based). I have a serving of vegan protein powder in my pre-training meal which has prompted the additional leucine...

I'm 31 so not sure if I'm considered young or old anymore ha

Sorry I'm a little late to reply but found this study really interesting, look forward to seeing further research between plant and animal based protein.

At this stage, if someone was using a...

Thanks for this, definitely going to give some of these a try if they're available in the UK (Ghost is but not sure about the others).

I've been using PES Cinnamon Delight mainly, how would you...

Well done to everyone on their journey so far, and congratulations to those that have reached their goal!

0.7 kg / 1.5 lb scale weight loss for me this week, I've come up slightly short of my goal...

2 lb scale weight loss this week which puts me in a really good position going into the final week. Only change from last week was a 15g drop in carbs and a slight increase in protein, I'll be...

1.6 lb scale weight drop this week, really satisfied with how this cutting phase has gone. At this rate I won't reach my goal weight on 183 lbs but everything else has gone really well. I've not had...

2.1 lb scale weight drop this week, pretty happy with that outcome as the previous couple of weeks I've been a little behind schedule. Also a bit of gratification for having confidence in my strategy...

1.1 lb loss this week, my weight loss has been linear but just a little slower than I would have liked. There are some encouraging signs, this is the leanest I've been at this body weight, the...

Congratulations, regardless of competitor numbers, you looked in great condition and it's an achievement in itself stepping on stage!

Only 0.9 lb loss this week, 5 weeks remaining to lose 10 lbs and reach my goal so I'll likely have to start being a little more aggressive. Although I'm not overly concerned, I had a couple of high...

Looking very lean and vascular, shoulders and arms look very full for one week out - look forward to seeing how you get on.

1.4 lb scale weight drop this week, definitely the lower end of the rate of loss I'm looking for but I still have time on my side and don't want to be too aggressive prematurely, so keeping things...

I enjoy watching the classic physique but I find it's much harder to predict (partly because it's a new division and partly because it's usually hugely contested).

I'd expect the top 10 to be made...
