Glycobol question.

I posted this in a thread of mine, but they told me to just post here, probably would be answered quicker/better anyways.

The head PT of my gym recommend a diet to me, high carb day, low carb day, no carb day, repeat. I'm trying to lower my body fat from 13.9% to single digit, in 3 months if its possible without losing my gains.

If this diet he shows me is actually good and you guys agree, how would I even dose it? Would I just do like 2x2 high carb day, 1x2 low carb, and 0 on no carb days? Also, how long is glycobol "safe" to take it for, can I take it for this whole 3 months, that im doing a transformation.

And I know it says to take it preworkout, but with preworkouts that I currently use it says not to eat anytime around it. so as long as I'm using a preworkout should I skip the glycobol prewo?
 
3 months to single digits is doable but that diet advice is horrible IMO. If you stuck with a moderate carb intake set with restrictions (no carbs after 4pm, etc.) I can almost guarantee better results than what you will be running.

For the glycobol try 1 cap with both low and high carb meals to assess your tolerance, the bioprine can wreak havoc on the digestive system for novice users using the compound often leading to an uncomfortable trip to the restroom until tolerance is made. Taken preworkout 2 hours before with some carbs will deliver amazing workouts without sacrificing
the ability to lose fat. You never want to eat right before a workout, 90 minutes before should give enough time for digestion of carbs and protein. This supplement works and I believe it will help you reach your goals. Good luck.
 
Hey Roguearthur Thanks for posting.

As far as diet I agree with MRBigPR in that you need to stick to more even carbohydrates, that is not to say you cant cycle them like on a back or leg day you may need 50-100 carbs more and on an cardio only day you can go 50-100 lower.

remember when your training intensity starts to suffer that means you either need to
1.cut back on the cardio for a week then start it back in a week if your doing hard cardio everyday(which at 185 lbs you would be doing cardio harder than say someone 225 or larger)
2. take in more carbs

really there are some people are are more carb sensitive meaning they store more fat on carbs and there are others that can take in more carbs and still get very low levels of bodyfat.

I could keep writing on this subject. I like to keep fats lower when getting real lean aiming for getting"ripped"

as far as Glycobol I would for sure take one 10-20 minutes post workout every time, and with 50 grams of carbs or more.

The two best times to take in more carbohydrates of any other time of the day are upon awaking and post-workout so i recommend at least these two times.

Thanks guys! ummm its my second day taking it at 2 pills, yesterday i got mad diarrhea, didn't think it was from the pills, this morning I took them and just now i had it again. I'm pretty sure its from the pills, but sadly no matter how gross it is to me, it seems like its worth it, and possibly my body will learn to deal with it ;)

But, so lets say just now, for my post workout I made a smoothie with a bunch of fruit, should I not take glycobol since you want complex carbs or should i still?

edit: forgot to say, I know mrbig said it can cause havoc. Good thing I planned to start taking this while I had a few days off from work! lol

It would be better with complex carbs but not a 100% must.
 
I find preworkout 20-30 minutes taking a glycobol is better suited for a bulk.


I find the effects are more pronounced with complex carbs. Rogue, bump to 1 cap until the glycos*TS go away then bump up.
 
Well, not to just bring up a diet that is turned down, but I really want to try this high carb, low carb, no carb diet... I've been stuck at 180 for so long after losing 40. Maybe trying something weird will work. So anyways, should I bother taking this supplement then? Because no carb days I have to have 0-20 max really on carbs. And I know you need to take this with carbs, so just curious if this stuff will work if I do two days on, 1 day off and repeat.

I would wait to usr it if you are going to have that low of carb days IMO.
 
hate to hijack the thread but ive been using glycobol for almost 1 month and still get the worst abdominal issues every time..love the other effects and just ordered 2 more bottles but curious if it would benifit me to lower to 1 cap at a time for 4 of my meals and only take 30-50 gms of carbs each time

It helped me to do this.

I take 1 cap with complex carbs 4 times a day and no stomach issues. I had to drop down to 2 caps a day until my body adjusted to it.

I was having some serious gas I was thinking was from Glycobol at four capsules per day

I am back down to two and it has subsided. It could have been a lot of protein and carbs though My diet is back up in protein and carbs so we will see, so far though no gas issues

were you having the rankiest farts ever while on Glycobol?
