Favourite Horleys Product

Fav Product: RIPPED FACTORS

Reason: The quality is the best.  The powder is fine and quckly absorbed, it is perfect for getting ripped and lean.  Also the added benefits of the fat burners and amino acids are exactly what my stubborn fat need.

Also, the Carb Less bars are far too addictive!


Approach to training and nutrition?Nutrition is number one and I follow this far too strictly I have been told.
I eat seven meals a day religiously (three from shakes).
My training is always intense and I always focus myself on what I am there for and give my all.
If I can walk down the stairs after a leg day I have not gone hard enough. I probably and have been told also, that I over train :-)
I weight train six days a week and cardio three to four when not competing and everyday when dieting.
Weights and cardio are for one hour.

I have always given my utmost in training and diet, I have learnt that the crash diet of 12 weeks does not work and that you need to make a lifestyle of your diet and eat clean all year. This is a must for any natural person wanting to be better year by year.
I don’t think I can stop as I love the discipline and each year having a new goal of being better than last. The attitude of winning has gone now and now it is a challenge for me to be better than last time.
