    Ketosis carbs?

    I carbed up all day Saturday and Sunday and the ketosticks went negative. Its interesting that i could eat so many carbs and not feel bloated. Monday I drank several beers and some wine at a pool party (no other carb sources). This morning the ketosticks were still negative but after my...

    Hormone replacement therapy help

    I forgot to ask about the gel. I figure injections would work better?? but I'm not looking forward to heavy front squats a day after poking myself in the quad:). Does 175 a month for dr visits, bloodwork, and medicines sound too much?

    Hormone replacement therapy help

    Thanks warbird! Unfortunately insurance doesn't cover it, but it's not too expensive for me. Its good to know my doc knows whats up and will be doing the labs after 2 months. Figure it'll be healthier then my stupid ass trying to play chemist not to mention its legal.

    Ketosis carbs?

    Bought ketosticks... Set a pr tonight on front squats! Anyways I took in about 18 gm of matodextrin post and 25 gm pre workout. The urine test showed trace amounts of ketone (5mg). Is this enough ketone or do I need more in the urine. I will test again in the morning.

    Ketosis carbs?

    Then why are there so many logs of people having positive results? Is the diet good for anything if im already healthy and lean? My goal is just to get down another 1% bfp on a diet that I can manage year round. I figure i'll give it the ole college try anyways. I've been strict paleo for 4...

    Ketosis carbs?

    I've been on paleo for 4 months. I'm new to keto... Should I eat any carbs in my post workout shake or meal or will this throw everything off? I workout HIT daily to keep my head in check and need to recover. Does Keto slow recovery?

    Eating schedule n workout intensity

    Your diet and exercise routine is solid. For me I always hovered around 8% year round on that diet though. I had to get rid of all carbs (keto, paleo) to get down to -6bfp. The only time I have any carbs are after a workout bc I train short and intense almost every day and found they help me...
