Hay yall! Been liking for a long time, but for whatever reason, have decided to be a little more active here.
So firstly, a huge thank you to the AM community. I've learned so much over the years from this site.
In the past I've used a lot of supps for weight loss, general health, nootropic boost, adaptogenic effects, etc
Now I'm Looking to put together a stack to use when I get into my reverse diet next month. I'm down to about 12% at 175 lbs right now. Carb/calorie cycling at average 1950 cal, 160p, 160c, 75f. Maintain at about 2800. If will reverse when I get to about 10% bf.
I've done this, with some variation, a couple times now: diet to about 10%, reverse diet slowly and lose more..for a couple months....but then leptin takes over...I binge for a week or 8, and get back to 190/200 lbs., get injured bc of inflammation and extra weight...time off training...rinse and repeat. last time I was down to 161 and had to have been single digit bf. Then holidays....nuff said.
Plan: evomuse stack: basic/epitome to destroy hunger issues. Slinmax or slintensity as my big carb meals get up there. Defuse if I am facing holiday or uncontrollable Chinese buffet urges.
Right now I'm using slinmax, once a week for my refeed meal. Daily Norcodrene/shift stack, with ec or yc thrown in here and there. Other supps are: Ksm-66, Alcar, cissus, fish oil, d, b, c... Cycling stims and adaptogenics as recommended.
Also, I know someone will suggest bulking. Not an option. I'm primarily a boulderer (think rock climbing condensed to the most challenging 10-20' at a time-gymnastic, power strength based movement) Need to be as light and strong as possible.
Any thoughts? Additions? Experiences?
TL/DNR: epitome/basic/defuse/slintensity stack for maintaining strength to weight ratio and low bf while reverse dieting?
Thanks!
