Stair Protocol by Jacob Geissler BA Clinical Nutrition
In the past, we been brain washed into using High glycemic carbohydrates to spike insulin. I feel into this dogmatic train of thought because it was the common place approach preached in every magazine. Skinny, fat, or dilusional, the theory of insulin spiking was gospel.
Even with a degree is clinical nutrition (which does not prepare you for performance nutrition), I feel victim to the notion that without spiking insulin you are sacrificing a key component for muscle growth and recovery.
There where 2 signicant reasons why my approach has changed and evolved. Around 3 years ago, I joined AnabolicMinds to advertise our first product cAMPHIBOLIC, and the board was run by a crazy clown named Bodo that changed my philosphy on Post workout nutrition.
I gave this opioniated clown some cash for a program and followed his protocol. I was a big advocate of nutrition from the start. I was never one to push supplements before nutrition. I understood if the end users understood nutrition. He would really love my products. Once you understand how nutrition works for you individually, you can easily decipher which supplements work.
I will take this time to Thank Bobo whoes probably playing golf somewhere...I mean trying to play golf.
The huge difference from Bobo's protocol was that fat loss became much easier without injesting sugary carbohydrates Post workout...This was a big changing point in my physique. Remember Insulin is a storage hormone and when it's present fat loss is impossible (later I will try to convince most people that want to get lean not to eat every 3 hours but that is for another time).
The second huge leap in understanding insulin and dieting was when I developed (not just I but also a great mind that rather stay behind the scenes) Anabolic Pump. Again Remember when Insulin is present you cannot lose fat. Anabolic Pump allows you to eat carbohydrates in a super efficient way that requires less insulin secretion from the pancrease. The least amount of time that insulin is present in the blood system. We have a greater opportunity to lose fat while eating carbohydrates. This is beauty of Anabolic Pump.
People are stubborn and never want to change the dieting approach but you have too. The body adapts and change sparks a new cellular enviroment. Change was to be prescirbed and researched and the only way to be truly successful is by learning BASIC nutrition...Just basic nutrition and most could learn it in a few weeks.
We know Insulin is anabolic! The most anabolic substance in the world and if we can learn to manipulate it properly, we can harness the power when needed. Insulin is an inflammatory hormone and the more the pancrease secretes to deal with large sums of carbohyrates. The more likely you will become insulin resistant and run into inflammatory conditions that can later lead to pre diabetic conditions...but that are a whole other story.
instead of a huge peak in insulin by just using simple carbohydrates and fast digesting protein that leads to a subsequent fall in insulin. We are getting a Steady-state anabolic insulin response (**** that does not even spell stair..lol) by using a combonation of fast and slow releasing proteins and carbohydrates. We are getting a constant flow of Amino Acids and glucose to the muscle cells.
The reason we do not take P-Slin 15 minutes before the shake is because we WANT the pancrease to secret insulin big time and the synergy of P-Slin, Insulin and the INTENSE workout creates a super anabolic enviroment.
Now, if you are going to Pilates class and do not want to Train like a MACHINE. Please just ignore and erease everything you just read because this protocol allows you to train like an animal and recovery at an unheard of rate (especially if your supplement cycle is top notch).
The MassMonster shake is the ULTIMATE fuel to feeding the craziet workouts. Trust me if you love to grind it out in the gym, the MassMonster shake brings training enjoyment to a new level. The pump, the recovery, the strenght gains, and the intense energy will take your training to a new level.
You will be in biology thinking of the gym. You will go to sleep just to wake and train. You will be banging your girl and thinking of squats...okay, I'm lieing about the later. Results come fast with this protcol......FAST especially if you personalize the MassMonster Shake to your liking with supplements that you know work.
MassMonster Shake-Jacob Style!
The base Plus I mix in:
-Jacked (which is a stimulant that I been using for a long time that called Y-RD along with some other goodies..You can use stimulant of choice) Or Core Zap..Cannot go wrong with either but love the addition of sulbutiamine in Zap..Great formula.
-10 grams BCAAs mixed in MassMonster shake
I will take the below 30 minutes before the gym.
-2 Prime
-3 Powerfull (not for the HGH response but PowerFULL significantly increased dopamine and works in synergy with any stimulant. The combo of PowerFULL plus a stim allows you to control your muscle contractions on different level...the best Mind muscle connection guarnateed.
-1gram 50% EGCG
-20mgs of forskolin
-100mgs 5htp
Lets harnes the Power of Insulin in a way that will keep us super insulin senstive and healthy. As I age, my focus is trying to reverse the clock and keep a youthful body and mind as I age. But there is a weird misconception in the bodybuilding world that they must eat semi unhealthy and gorge on mass amounts of food (our food system is tainted) to gain muscle. Meaning we eat calorie dense foods not nutrient dense foods.
The Stair protocol is about gaining muscle, losing fat, and staying young!
Again my disclaimer, you need to learn nutrition and how your body reacts to food to modify the programs to fit your body. I will outline my routine that can be used a guide but you must come up with your blue print.
Morning Meal (currently is my preworkout meal in the stair protocol)
-Take 1 AP Wait 15 minutes and eat 20 grams of carbohydrates from raw oats, 30 grams whey protein mix of isolate, casien, and concentrate (human development technologies..Name is escaping me at the moment).
-1 grape fruit
-Mutli vitamin-3grams fishoil-2 Prime
Why use anabolic Pump with such a low dose of Carbohydrates? I want to become carbohydrate efficient and such a low amount of carboydrates, the pancrease probably only has to spit or drizzle some insulin out. The insulin response probably close to non existant with AP and 20-30grams of carbohydrates.
This is a teaser meal to boost metabolism and get ready for the Stair shake and proceeding workout.
The MassMOnster Shake II
The base of the shake is;
-800mgs bulk Plsin
-60grams SuperCarb by Avant labs(carb content can also change and agian start low and go high but remember our goal is to Make the pancrease shot out Insulin during this time)
-60grams of Dextrose, Maltodextrin, or Waxy maize starch
-20 grams of Whey Hydroslates (but you can use isolates and remember you can adjust ratios to your liking...always best to start low than go high).
-10 grams caisen (I just use 1.5 scoop of my HDT protein which has casien and isolate and jsut add one scoop of hydroslate)
-6 grams beta Alanine
Part two Coming monday
