Yah you could just cycle the carbs but you have to keep them higher in wod's so you would use 300 on wod's and 100 on nwd's if your' norm was around 200 grams. Something to think about if my plan starts to stall right now it's working 1000% though.
Great workout, so you are saying that the fat is still melting away consistently? Even with eating what you like?
It's falling off!!!! lost 5 lbs last week and I estimate about 1.5% body fat maybe my best week ever!!
OK, thats it thats it, I can't take it anymore! It is time for my presently "FAT-A$$" to join in and do a Log myself! Let me read a little more into this IF stuff so I can see if it is something I want to do, or if I wanna do it my "old fashion" way, will probably run a few bottles of EPI-V with the new IF way, always up for something new!
Sounds awesome, I will be soooo shredded come contest time, I guarantee it.
Hey Don wonder where you got to.... hey tell Mike great idea on that Testopro/Erase combo deal, these are awseome together...
Hey, thanks for joining...
Nice article. I am pretty close to following that now in the 100 and 250-300 range on carbs. Cris Aceto has been around and respected forever. You could use all of his principles with in the Lean Gains eating frame and see huge improvements. His speaking of the metabolism slowing is due to a loss of leptin from the fat being burned and it not being replaced. The addition of the high carb day increases leptin levels drastically and that in response allows the metabolism to increase. The intermittent fasting design goes one step further in making sure leptin levels stay optimal for fat burning and an increase in metabolism as well as anabolism during the feeding window.
That is what I do pretty much, maybe 100-150 NWD 250-300 WD but I like to estimate right now and I am confident I can get very lean doing it this way so I will resist the urge to get to into counting every little thing and keep with my estimations and general tracking.
That is the beauty of it. This is my cake right here, this is me eating my cake, I still have abs... Thank you Lean Gains!
It is unreal isn't it!
Nice I better get a link to that lean gains log. I can't wait to see what Doug can do with that. He is a LUCKY OLD FUGGER TOO! I am watching closely and am curious on this one.
Yup it speeds up the thyroid. So many people think when they start their diet they need to cut calories real low, which can actually slow the metabolism.
You must spread some reputation around....
Gotta love it, Lean gains is a remarkable discovery!!!
Yah like I said a more moderate shift is treating me very well right now, because I train later in the day I have tendancy to be quite hungry the following day, had I trained early in the day I am sure it would be a whole different ball game. This methodology is going in the bank for contest prep if I need it.
Yah I try to slowly reduct my calories over time to avoid this problem lean gains seems to be able to sidestep this somewhat. I still may have to lower cals a bit but not as often and not as much I think...
You know it, were all about getting down to it... and turning over the stones...:veryhappy:
No I just throw balsamic vinegar for flavor... I used to but dont' need the oil really.
I think I heard my name called, I can help with a plethora of tasty low cal, low carb, low fat, etc. I love salads and have been making my own dressings for years!
I never got very fancy I would throw a couple cap fulls of olive oil and a couple of balsamic vinegar and shake some steak spice in....
Lets see the recipe's!! this is my thread we share here .... :11:
Hook a brother up brah!!
I agree the TestoPRO/Erase is a super combo.
Some good ideas here my wife buys ranch all the time for her salads she could make good use of this. I like the spicy one for myself...
yah I think in the diet section they do...:yup:
I'm going to have to try that....sounds tasty! :yumyum:
Yah another good idea for the wife...
Thanks, I will definitely show up, I am so on top of this..
Yah I try to limit my dairy for the most part, I do eat frozen yogurt for a treat a lot of it seems to smooth me out...
lol If I were allowed that many cals I wouldn't be wasting them on Chicken Breasts...
It's pretty close to 50/25/25 on most days but on nwd's it's not always easy to get enough fats in and still meat he calorie requitement. This day is on 19% fat.
However I am sure those beef gyros were not low fat perse.
Lower than I thought though... I thought that meat they use had more fat...only 12.2 grams that's why the day is lower in fat really..I think he is saving the cals for his carb foods.
It's the opposite for me, I am much more energetic and happier. I am sleeping better too. Now this is compared to a regular cut. I can't say what will happen when I increase the calories and try to gain back a little weight. Good things I would assume though.
Love me some Jalapenos.... Look at my last post on BIGLIFTER85's Eating Challenge forum.... http://anabolicminds.com/forum/general-chat/174681-eating-challenges-2.html
