Would you deduct the fiber grams from Quest bar's carbs? or do you include them...

Interested to see how this works out for you over the next couple of weeks.. I need a nutritional change..

I don't include the fiber from anything.

As am I. I'll keep you updated.

Also, how are you dosing the AP... 1-2, 20 minutes before you eat? and at bedtime?

1 cap usually 20+ minutes before I end up eating (15-20 mins prior is recommended). I don't use it pre bed, but have been using it pre-workout as a part of FTP.

So you are following: Carbs minus Fiber = net carbs (and same with sugar alcohol) ?? sorry just clarifying...

Yes, but I didn't consider the sugar alcohol. There's only 1g in a CCCD Quest Bar, so I'm not worried about it.

 

[wasme]

Yes, but I didn't consider the sugar alcohol. There's only 1g in a CCCD Quest Bar, so I'm not worried about it.

I have had some other bars where 20g came from sugar alcohol (and had read that number should be deducted just like fiber). That said, I won't likely use them again as the Quest bars are so good.

Thanks for the info.

They CAN still affect blood sugar, much less than regular sugar. For your belly's sake, I'd avoid em :thumbsup:

 

[Distilled Water]

Thanks for the help man!

Anytime my man.

 

[Jiigzz]

Got a keto diet thread that you should be contributing in. Just sayin.

So I see, i'll post up some studies on keto and hypertrophy

Are you on a keto diet currently?

I'm non-keto low carb; typically 100-150g of carbs per day with refeeds every week.

I didn't think your veins could get any bigger. Wow !

I think you are getting in even better condition with the inclusion of cardio. Excellent work bro.

Haha they've been pretty prominent lately.

Thanks fumoney. I'm doing some LISS right now.

Thanks Josh. I actually started doing a little research on the different sugar alcohols last night.

The Quest Bar link is interesting. I'd like to see testing from non-diabetics as well.

Damn dude!! Road maps!

Thanks bud.

Breezy you're a beast.
What is your body fat at

Thanks ace. I'm not sure, but I'd like to get it around 8% in the next month or so.

...Now that is veinage... damn Breezy.

Thanks man.

Big game!

Breezy's veinage is off the chain!

Thanks brother. Hopefully, it'll be getting better. I'm starting to see some lower abdomen veins coming back.

 

[wasme]

Big game!
.

HUGE!

 

[breezy11]

HUGE!

+1 B's!




Speaking of Quest Bars, sugar alcohol, fiber, and net carbs; I had a CCCD bar and PB cups yesterday and another CCCD bar today...according to ketone testing strips, I'm currently in ketosis.

 

[bolt10]

Breezy is killing it in here. Ketosis, veins everywhere, diesel workouts, this place is crazy.

Greetings, breezy. Good to see another person in training who likes Versa-1. That just makes me want to try it even more now!

Nice goal by horton. But we gotta stay outta the box

Vascularity is insane brother! You're definitely doing something right!

Greetings, breezy. Good to see another person in training who likes Versa-1. That just makes me want to try it even more now!

Welcome purebred. VERSA-1 is one of my favorite products; I actually got to beta test it and have cycled it ever since. I'd recommend you give it a shot.

I'd say you've hit eight percent man

Eh, I doubt it. It looks like I still have a decent amount of belly and lower back fat to lose.

Nice goal by horton. But we gotta stay outta the box

It was...when I realized it went in. That short-handed goal was beautiful. Yes they do.

Vascularity is insane brother! You're definitely doing something right!

Thanks buddy. Haha I'm definitely trying.

 

[Jiigzz]

The epitome of hard work. Nice job breezy

 

[PalmFist]

Crazy vascularity

 

[bean5er]

Awesome work breezy! I feel your pain bro regarding ketosis. Gym doesn't even touch the taste in my mouth, on top of that the metallic taste combined with 48oz of cod a day is interesting lol. Keep going bud as you are one of many who keep me going

 

[wasme]

A fine win tonight. Would have liked to have seen Jagr pot one on that breakaway though.

 

[breezy11]

Thanks Jiigzz. It's all fun for me.

Thanks man. I'm curious to see how it is when I carb up.

Thanks brother. Not too "painful" at this point, but a carb up should be fun. I had planned on one today, but might hold off another day. I couldn't handle any diet involving fish lol, can't stand it. You're killing it man; I'm confident that you'll do great.

A fine win tonight. Would have liked to have seen Jagr pot one on that breakaway though.

Very nice win. Yeah, that would've been cool.

I didn't know that the human arm possessed so many veins...the things I learn in Breezy's log.

5/7/13


Today's leg session was intense. I don't think I could've sweat any more and was ready to pass out at numerous points during the workout lol.


Seated Leg Curl
2 warm-up x10
100x12
110x10
120x8
120x8, 80x8, 50x18

-very strict form: had someone hold my lower back/hips down, so hamstrings did all the work.



Safety Bar Squat (explosive)
2 warm-up x6
245x6
255x6
265x6
275x6

-I kept with explosive squats, but used a safety squat bar to change the mechanics slightly. These felt great and my explosiveness is improving.

-I couldn't find the pads for the bar, so I stuck a random one on. It was somewhat uncomfortable, but not too bad with the weight being fairly light.

Invalid Link Removed



Leg Press
2 warm-up x8
720x8
720x8
720x8
720x8

-3 sec negative

-constant tension (3/4 lockout)

Here's my final set. I had lost some power when driving the weight up at this point, but was happy with each set overall.

[video=youtube_share;vJBI51Fke24]http://youtu.be/vJBI51Fke24[/video]

 

[breezy11]

1.25 Hack Squats
180x10
200x8
200x7, 140x4, 90x6

-constant tension (until last leg of drop set)

-These were torture after squats + leg press and the light weight was more than enough.

Here’s my final drop set. I lost some depth as it went along (previous sets were as low as possible without bottoming out), but I was just trying to survive lol.

[video=youtube_share;ChoxXfyeqIY]http://youtu.be/ChoxXfyeqIY[/video]


BB Stiff-Legged Deads
145x15
145x15

-25lb plates used for increased depth/stretch


I had planned on doing some calves, but ran out of time. I could barely stand anyways and was happy to call it a day.

 

[fumoney]

Love the detail Breezy. Your video placement is right on point. When I wish I saw what it was like there is a link there waiting for me to click it. Awesome job man. Leg work is top notch.

You're in for a treat bud. Those cccd bars are ridiculously good. After what you've been through, I'd probably grab a pint of each Talenti Gelato flavor and eat until I got sick haha.

I just started my first carb up; feels great after being around 30g most of the week.

Yup.

Is the CBC Trutein good? I love the Reg choc, Choc Strawberry, and Pumpkin pie... Loved all 3

I remember liking it, but it's been a while. I currently have Giant Sports PB Choc and it's delicious.
