Ace gets pumped with AP

[classic34]

Welcome, just updated my post for todays training and diet



Yeah, I love carb cycling. As long as I keep it pretty clean I can still stay dry and I just fill up like a balloon.

I've been noticing I feel and look Fuller this week.. Hmmm

Yuuup...Keep an eye on that.

I'm sorry if I missed this but what does ur carb cycle look like in terms of pro carb fat

[aceroni]

I'm sorry if I missed this but what does ur carb cycle look like in terms of pro carb fat

Do you mean percentages?
I do not count calories, i count macros... So percentages are kinda irrelevant to me

If you are asking what my macros are you can find them in each post after my food is listed

[mkretz]

Yea was talkn macros...like how many low before a high day and what numbers u use for low and high cuz I wanna do the sake but I'm always torn at what nunbers to use

[aceroni]

Oh ok, sorry.

What i've been doing and has worked really well is this:
M high
T high
W low
Th med/high
Fri-sun low

High days are big training days. Carbs around 300-400 mostly periworkout
Fats around 50-80

Low days are off days from training.
Carbs around 50 fats 100-150

Protein is always 250-300

Might be lower on high carb days

[mkretz]

Cool thanks...I do something similar usually high then moderate but if I'm extremely active on a low day with training and cardio ill usually make it at least a moderate day so I'm not taking in absurb amounrs of protein and fat

[drewsicle3210]

Lets get some muscle pics bro!

I only go that low because I don't do anything physical at work, and my only cardio is 10-15 min bike ride with dog

Today is low, see below

Haha, sure thing guys.. maybe Monday morning (see if I'm depleted) vs Wednesday morning- after two high days I should be much Fuller.

Low carbs, off day

M1
4 whole eggs
5oz ny strip

Notes,
Forgot to take AP this morning, it was 530 am and I wasn't thinking.

M1-4 are the same.
M5 will be slightly different. I'll update that later after I eat

I ended up having about a pound of chuck roast steak
Some spinach
2.5 Tbsp natty PB

Meant to take a picture, but it didn't happen.

Macros today
50c
320 p
130f

Remember these are rough estimates, I don't weigh anything out, I just eyeball.

[classic34]

I'm thinking AP will treat you well over the upcoming high carb days.

I know the feeling. Took a break the last month from any GDA and man your post just reminded me why I've been looking the way I do on my high day or after rather. Guess who is starting AP tomorrow?

Ace your meals are epic bro. Workouts very solid and the full dry look = Winning!! Can't wait for nudes :-)

I can't use GDAs while dieting save for on a really high carb day or before a cheat meal. My blood sugar drops too low. I guess it could be due to having good insulin sensitivity to begin with, so I end up grabbing for the bit of glucose left that shouldn't be pulled. Not sure...liver glycogen isn't exactly high in a dieted state so that could be related. I love them while bulking and eating a ton of carbs, but dieting I just can't do it. I envy your starting AP™ tomorrow, I've got another couple of months to go before that's an option. :/

The pumps are nice but it just
Doesn't have the stim kick that I'm used to from enhanced

Ace you are looking beastly bro very impressed!!!!

Thanks bean. I think getting fat in the offseason (210 lb) allowed to me pack on extra mass.

I'm the biggest and leanest I've been at 181

[classic34]

Pics never do anyone justice...ever, and those pics aren't exactly high quality. I can tell you're very lean just going off your abs. How tall are you Ace?

Thanks, it's a process, started at 105 stick mode.
Just trying to continually get better without going the hormonal route- not ready to gamble with my endocrine system.

For sure that like my longer term goal right now

Keep at it. Consistency over long periods of time produces amazing results

glutamine? this forum made me think glutamine has no benefit

glutamine? this forum made me think glutamine has no benefit

Hmm well i've seen arguments both ways. I think I got it for free on an insider deal for enhanced, so I figured Ehh I might as well use it.

If you guys think it's bad news I'll just drop it
