Yeah, I use the same stuff. I used a 'leftover' scoop from something else. I think that 2 scoops was equal to 70g. I can verify scoop size tonight.
EDIT: 70cc scoop. Although I would not use WMS during the V-diet. Surge or the gatorade,WPI, BCAA mix. You need to keep the carbs low.

Well I was talking about that, but only after the first two weeks in order to jack metabolism back up. I based this solely on my experience that fat loss slows significantly after the first two weeks, and a reasonable cheat day like mentioned can really help jack up metabolism and accelerate fat loss for the next 2 weeks.
If you're doing the diet for behavioral changes, then I would skip that method like you said.
Be careful mixing all kinds of things with WMS. This stuff is fast. Very fast. However it is slowed down by mixing lots of other things in with it, like whey protein for example. Just like the GI of dextrose is greatly reduced if you eat it with a hamburger... Not exactly the same thing, but I think that helps get the point across.
I'd use WMS with Peptopro or a highly hydrolyzed whey and you can toss in the creatine, beta alanine, and other aminos, too, but make sure you make it a 10-12% solution with water so that you absorb it faster. This means 1 liter of water for every 100g of total powder.
If you aren't going to use peptopro, EAAs, BCAAs, or a highly hydrolyzed whey, and you're going to use whey isolate for example, then I would take the WMS with creatine, beta alanine, etc by itself, then 10 minutes later take in the whey isolate. Part of the beauty of the WMS is its ability to drive nutrients into the cells like creatine, but this effect is lower when it's slowed down.
I also think you should use caution with the Surge experiments on T-Nation. They say you don't gain fat doing even double dose Surge peri-workout. Great, but that doesn't mean that it may not *slow* fat loss. I would use it depending on how lean you are and the volume and type of exercise you use. Someone tubby and getting into lifting using this to modify behavior and jump start fat loss should probably avoid PWO carbs completely.
I really like high dose BCAAs for workouts on V diet. 0.44g/kg bwt of a 4:1:1 ratio.
I don't think it'll cause stomach issues...I just don't see a point in mixing the two together. Take the WMS first 10 minutes before the whey.
Trial run for the 3rd workout:
4x15
A1 Good Mornings
A2 Incline DB bench
A3 Wood Chops
A4 Reverse Lunges
A5 Lat pull downs
1 min. rest
work capacity deff increased since the v-diet i will be posting phtos tommarow night and premeasurements for the 10/10 transformation
Freakin Camera is screwed up just my luck, hopefully i can get it working sometime later today
here are my measurements comparing day 1 of the Velocity diet to day 1 of the 10/10 transformation
Measurements: V-diet Day 1 to 10/10 Day 1
Largest Area Belly: 31.5.............. 29.75
Thigh L/R: 25/25.25................... 24/24
Calf L/R: 16.25/16.....................15.75/15.75
Ankle L/R: same
Chest/ Nipple Line: 41............... 40.25
Upper Abs: 34.5....................... 32.5
Hips largest glutes: 39.5............ 37.5
Shoulders: 48.......................... 47.25
Upper Arm L/R: 14.75/14.75...............14.25/14.25
Neck: 16.25......................... ... 15.25
Weight: 179........................... . 168.6
Last week when i finshed the v-diet i weighted in @ 168 dry, week later i have only put on about .6 lbs. I think its safe to say that i have lost some additional fat, nothing compared to the rate of the first two weeks, but based on some measurements, glutes, waist, shoulders, they all when down this past week
Nice!
It's not safe to say you lost fat, it's unquestionable. When you lower your calories so far below maintenance, and your glycogen stores are depleted....and you protect yourself somewhat with high protein and BCAA's, the majority of weight lost is fat. I'd venture to say at least 90-95% if not more.
Amazing

Yeah i see what your sayin, but i just finished 8 days of the transition phase, where i upped my calories intake slowly but steady for the past eight days, about 200 calories a day, most of these calories came from carbohydrates: oats, veggies, pumpkin, fruit etc., ive kept hydrated as well. Many of my measurements have decreased since i finished the v-diet eight days ago, not nearly at the rate while i was on the v-diet, but they still have decreased. This is my reasoning for why i have lost some additional fat
Remember, my calories are still under maintenance, as i begin the 10/10 transformation.
makes sense. I wonder how that works at this point (as far as glycogen reserves go)
