Ok so tomorrow i the big day....day 1 with endurance...cant wait.......my plan is to take one scoop as i start to work out and sip throughout my workout, my guess is it wont last the whole workout, but i will then use just plain bcaas, dont wanna use up my bottle too quick........HOWEVER tomorrow I will be splitting my workout due to time constraints and actually having two separate workouts soooo i will be using 2 scoops haha.
Stats:
5'9 160
Maxes are approximates - never actually completed these numbers but quite close
Bench - 235
Squat - 325
DL - 425
Diet - currently following IF but a transitioning from how i was doing it. I was doing just one huge meal a day at night which honestly i loved, it was like the reward for all the hard work throughout the day and i never had to carry food with me. However it kept me from being able to go out cuz i had to eat all night long and although i enjoy eating all that food at once i dont think it is smart to have such a stretched out stomach that i need to at ridiculous amounts of food to feel full. (this is why i destroy every eating challenge i do haha cuz i was eating more than these challenges every night)
I now am shooting for 16-18 our fast with 3 meals in my 6-8 hour feeding window
supplements: whey protein (usually as part of meals), fish oil, vit d, vit c, slin sane v2 with high carb meals, b complex, multi vitamin. endurance, and for preworkout currently using lecheek speed x 3 with different samples from the arnold thrown in sometimes.
I also am trying to follow a carb cycling diet - low/no carb days are my off days where all carbs come from veggies, dairy and nuts.
moderate carb days are 200g (275 protein, 188 fat), high carb days are 400g (200 protein, 111 fat) and shooting for 3600-4000 on workout days, on non workout days shooting for 2400-3000 although today got more around 3600 cuz i did alot of cardio cuz thats how i study and stay awake at th same time (on the eliptical) lol I am currently working on my masters in nutrition and just finished with my bachelors work in exercise science
Also, I am on 100mgs test cyp as trt :-(
workouts will consist of a heavy compound movemnt for low reps, usually5x5 and maybe a max try prior to the 5x5 followed by some sort of speed work then hypertrophy work. I like alot of volume and feel like it suits me best. Lately I ahve been really trying to disregard weight and really feel the muscle work and try to really break it down and justthis last week I have been more sore than i can remember in my chest and back so im excited for things to come........ill post some pics from not too long ago and then hopefully have some pics when the log is over.
I will be having surgery at the beginning of may that will keep me outta the gym for probably a month at the least so i wanna get up to 17- relatively cleanly by then so when im bed ridden i have some fat to lose i guess (im pretty worried about that)
thanks again for this opportunity and if anyone ever has any input or questions feel free to give it or as it that is what makes logs fun....INTERACT YALL!!!
