Hey Everyone,
Just wanted to share my off-season bulk, Will be pumping out a few different Vlogs about my nutrition, supplements, training etc.
Also what i think about the whole “bulking” or off-season process.
If you guys have any techniques that you swear by through a good bulk share them on here 
also if you have any questions leave them here as well and i will get to answering them.
Cheers guys
Your approach seems very sensible and similar to mine. The offseason is not the time to go “wild” and eat everything. IMO, the offseason is the time to slowly increase what you’re eaitng, getting your body more efficient at taking in increased calories, adding muscle in the process through the increased calories, and getting your body eating as much food as possible while still maintaining some leanness so when contest prep does come, you don’t have to get as restrictive as you might have otherwise.
If you slowly increase your calories throughout the offseason, you can really do wonders for your metabolism and body when it comes time to diet down again. Also, slowly increasing, rather than just going straight to eating a ton, will allow you to really mitigate fat gain while still providing your body the nutrients necessary to grow. I think it’s very important for people to remember that your body will not magically add more muscle simply because you’re eating more. Being calculated in your approach to adding nutrients will allow you to control that process as much as possible while still reaping the benefits of eating more and gaining muscle.

EXACTLY! nailed it bro, totally agree.
I will be going through that type of stuff in my nutrition Vlog.
I also take the same approach in my cut… slowly reduce the cals and monitor how the body reacts.

Awesome stuff man! Looking forward to seeing future vlogs.
Heres some info on how i cook and prep my meals, preperation is really the key to success when dieting! Get on top of it all and your week will be wayyy less stressful (with eating, cant comment on the other stuff haha)
My full diet is in …the description box!
Will be doing heaps more logs so if you have any questions fire them up on my Facebook and i will get a video explanation out
BOOM! keep smashing it guys!!
Little bit of post chest workout flexing
Damn, looking thick Jordan! Offseason seems to be going well, how’s your weight sitting compared to your contest outings?
I’m glad to see you keep posting on here. After your first couple posts, I figured you’d just disappear like a lot of people.
Looking great, definitely following along.

Thanks mate
Yeah I will be posting all my Vlogs on here and I also got a threat on my workout videos that I will be updating as well
Had heaps of people messaging me on the subject of insulin and how it all works.
This is a video explaining insulin and how it works in the body, especially towards things like building muscle!
Let me know what you think, will be doing heaps of videos like this in the future
Hey everyone, hope you all had an epic holiday
This is my first video of the year, it goes through some strategies for getting through those dreaded plateau’s!
Let me know what you think!
Also post up some strategies that you guys have used in smashing down those plateau’s
Hey guys,
Anyone got any interesting ways they have broken through a plateau? interested to see if people just stick to the normal training, nutrition etc or if they experiment with different stuff.
It is highly dependent upon the type of plateau IMO
Pal no homo, but your profile picture is amazing. Good work.

haha Cheers bro, the photographer is amazing, the guy has crazy skills!
Turned 23 today…
Wasn’t planning on training but then I had what I call a “Light Bulb Moment”
Let’s go to the gym and treat my self too some 200kg deadlifts followed my a back workout that will leave me couch bound for the next 24hrs.
Objective achieved 
Hope everyone is having an awesome day! The BULK is on!!
In the depth of my off-season.
Did a check in with the nutritionist on the weekend and everything is on track
This pick was taken the other day, 83kg at 9.59% BF
Aiming to put on a little more lean mass before nationals at the end of the year
Finishing off shoulders with some rope work
Never really do this but man it works! So much pump even more burn haha
A back shot from the other day’s shoulder workout, working on getting more thickness through the lats. Seen some improvements but still a long way to go!
This video is the most recent update of my off season condition!
Currently sitting at 83kg and 9.6% BF im slowly putting on that lean mass, really finding that staying in the single BF % range is helping as insulin sensitivity is good and everything seems to be growing a little faster than last time I did a bulk with a higher BF %.
I am also now on Lucine during a workout, I have done a lot of research and also confirmed by my nutritionist that 11-12g of lucine in that “peri” workout zone is optimal for lean mass gains. I have been seeing really good results over the past 4-5 weeks but will keep you updated on how it goes.
Also taking Glutamine in a morning and post workout for extra recovery, in my eyes its working a treat! I feel a lot fuller and muscle recovery also seems to be enhanced
