Pete you've been training for well over two decades I'm now in that club as well most people will just tell us hey gains are basically over at this point like why are you even bothering to continue to try and build any muscle but for you I think it's fair to say you had a little bit of a quote-unquote growth spurt late this this this late into your career I'd love to hear kind of what specifically that looked like and yeah just dive into the things from there

Yeah, I mean, I think, yeah, this year was the heaviest, heaviest I've ever been on stage since, like, getting to stride at glutes lean.

So, I mean, I, my, my first four, like, 04, 06, 08, even 2012 when I won my pro card, like, the conditioning wasn't what it is now.

So, like, I wasn't strided glutes lean, like, starting 2016, yeah.

you know, I competed 2016, 2020, 2023 this year, like with, I worked with Cliff all those years and like got to that level of conditioning.

And so like this year was the heaviest I've been on stage with that level of conditioning.

And so, um, yeah, I bottomed out about six pounds heavier than I did a decade ago.

Where roughly was your volume previous and then on average? And then where did it move to on average, if you know
