Im ditching my keto diet

Al Shades said:
I'm wll aware of the research and conventional wisdom surrounding carbs. It can basically be summed up as, "you need them for energy". I disagree for various reasons and based on alternative nutrition theories which I've encountered.

But I'm not going to push it at the moment. I'm more interested in learning about anabolic pump and p-slin as they relate to low carb diets.

X2. From What I'm reading, Yellow Gold by Nutraplanet is one of the key ingredients in anabolic pump and p-slin... What I believe it does is push all of the glycogen out of the liver. The liver glycogen levels are what the brain goes by to decide if it's going to burn ketones or carbs. I picked up some keto test strips and have a 150gr of yellow gold enroute. I am going to test that theory and see how fast/long it takes for YG to push you from carbs to ketones and also to see if it can push you to higher levels of ketosis.

looking forward to this.......
i ahve anabolic pump here......are you saying to use it ONLY on the carb up days? or throughout the CKD? Because, if you do not take it with ENOUGH carbs, you get the ANABOLIC DUMP!

only on carb up days.

SOON (tomorrow)

i think i have everything lined up correctly.

2253 cals per day, 150.24 P, 10C, 179.18g fat.

carb ups will be 300g carbs on sat and sun.

I have the lyle mcdonald book and have been lurking on c-k-d site.

As have I, well after I got off the drugs that is.

Thats sounds awsome, other than you may wanna only do a 24hr carb up the first few weeks just to get a feel for your body's reaction to ckd.

Whats your training/supps. going to look like?
 
i have a new routine coming from a friend of mine.

supps will be an AX stack that includes, SDNG, XXX(shhh, its a secret ;)), Stim X, Mass FX, and possibly the new creatine we got coming out next year.

Why the two days of carb ups? from what I understood, and I could be wrong, you only need a single carb meal per week to refresh liver T3 levels. I would also caution listening to your body when you are doing 5 days no carbs, 2 days with carbs, the transition between each of the two phases can be rough.

Everybody's different. If you handle carbs well than 36hr is great for a carb up.

The idea is once your body has totally switched to useing fat for fuel the days following carb up days should be fine. You may get a little drowgey on carb up days but by keeping fat pretty high stil you should be alright.
