You could. But buying meat be a little more cost efficient and give you the mix of fats that you need with the diet.While on this diet, could I use ON Pro Complex to get more protein? It has 60 g of protein, 1 gram of fat, and 2 grams of carbs if you dont count the fiber
Thats not too bad then. Your going to want to read through the book, powerlifting will probably have different dynamics than bodybuilding.actually it was around 36, all from milk. but low carb for 13 days. I will read that, thanks for the link.
See how you feel after a week or two on the diet. Strength decline varies from person to person. A lot of guys complain about getting weak, fatigued, but I don't notice any difference whatsoever. My strength remains, I feel great and have plenty of energy.Well guys I finally started the Anabolic Diet after months of interest and research. (I didn't have any oatmeal in the house so I was like F*ck it I am starting the AD today lol)
Anyways here is my questions for you experienced guys.
1. I follow a basic Westside template and I was planning on doing my Max Effort legs the morning of my carb ups(friday), then my max effort upper the day after my carb up(sunday). The other workouts are a DE legs on monday which I think I should still be pretty carb loaded for, and a DE upper on wednesday. I was thinking about using a high dose of glutamine and glycine with my peptopro after my workout on Wednesday to get a little glycogen in the tank for friday without having a carb spike. I was curious if anyone has used a protocol like this, or even used the glutamine/glycine Post workout at all?
2) would anyone be interested if I started a log of the AD and powerlifting? I know most people go on it for recomp but I mainly just want to up my strength without a giant carb bloat all of the time.
Right now I am following the 12 day adaption phase strictly, and don't plan on messing with the basic template until early december (thats when I would add the Glycine/Glutamine) I am shotting for just under 4000kcal's but found it to be a little harder than I thought, I got 2,500 on my first day and will probably get about 3500 today.
I still haven't been able to find 80/20 and I'm still reeling from trying to figure out how many calories are in my daily half pound serving taking into account fat lost in the cooking processI'd like to see a thread like that.
Ground Beef is your best friend. 100 grams of 80/20 beef have 20 grams of fat and 17 grams of protein. Thats almost 1200 calories per a pound (if you get all the fat from the pan).
You'll be able to do it, it's hard at first then after a while you'll be shoveling it down with no problem. I'll be reading the powerlifting AD diet book tonight.
Pepperoni is probably one of my favorite things to eat on any CKD type diet. Pop them in the microwave for a few seconds and they crisp up.See how you feel after a week or two on the diet.

And yes, getting a lot of calories on AD is very difficult! There are some key foods that can pump you full of calories, though. Some of them: peanuts, bratwurst, cheeses, seeds, PEPPERONI and SAUSAGE! and obviously straight beef. I'm eating 3700 calories but it isn't that much food. I could probably come close to fitting it all on one plate :icon_lol:
Your on 85/15 right?I still haven't been able to find 80/20 and I'm still reeling from trying to figure out how many calories are in my daily half pound serving taking into account fat lost in the cooking process![]()
Mmmm....haven't tried microwaving pepperoni before, but it sounds really good. I've only ate them raw.Pepperoni is probably one of my favorite things to eat on any CKD type diet. Pop them in the microwave for a few seconds and they crisp up.
Gotta try it out man. It's like they came off of a pizza, really crispy, only downside is that there is fat run off, but the fat can be used to cook other things, like eggs.Mmmm....haven't tried microwaving pepperoni before, but it sounds really good. I've only ate them raw.
:food:
Beef is the last meal of the day for me. I have nothing to use the fat with. What about cooking like 3 pounds in a crock pot? How much would that lose?Your on 85/15 right?

Dude, im telling you, eat the fat. Use the fat left in the pan.
The only time I get REALLY sore is on my legs day, which consists only of Squat, Power cleans, and Snatch (5X5)What is your training like?
What is your macro count like?
It will get better. The less cushion in the muscle the more the stretch.The only time I get REALLY sore is on my legs day, which consists only of Squat, Power cleans, and Snatch (5X5)
I do a three day split, mon/wed/fri ... with my other two days being chest/triceps and biceps/lats/shoulders.
Like i said, I was at about 3800 calories, at an 80/20 fat/protein ratio which breaks down to 190g Protein, 337g Fat, which is well above maintenance for me, being 5'6" 155lbs.
I'm telling you man, I have NEVER been this sore in the 5 years I've been lifting... and I don't know how much more food I can eat. I haven't really had much trouble with soreness so far on this diet, but it seems to be getting worse and worse every week. (I've been doing it since July).
I've been doing 5X5 for my squats every week, cleans and snatch are usually 3 sets of 8. I don't really change that up..... should I do 3 or 4 sets of ten on my squats every other week, or something like that?Personally I would bump the protein up a little.
But it should be something to do with your training rather than the diet. Are you using periodization on your training or are you just going heavy each week?
But then why is it getting worse? I haven't had trouble adapting to this diet until now, 3 1/2 months in.It will get better. The less cushion in the muscle the more the stretch.
It could be a mineral deficiency. Maybe try some Poseidon? Do you take a multivitamin/mineral? Also, taking vitamin C tabs may be beneficial.But then why is it getting worse? I haven't had trouble adapting to this diet until now, 3 1/2 months in.

Skip itWhat are your guys' thoughts on plain yogurt? It supposedly only has ~5g carbs per cup from probiotic lactose consumption, though labels claim something like 17g.
