So the story is I used to be a rugby player and powerlifter and was in excellent shape for years. After a bad knee injury (4 screws and blown out ACL & MCL) and a hectic work schedule after college lifting/exercising and diet took a major hit. I went from 190 at 7%bf to 240 at 20%ish bf over 2 years. Now that I'm focused and set a goal of reaching my college shape I'm going to get it.
Goal:
Lose 50lbs in 12 weeks
Diet:
Pure Ketogenic Diet- Less than 25G carbs daily- I used to use CKD with great success and plan to transition to CKD later on.
Diet is primarily chicken, beef, pork, eggs, cheeses, almonds, natty PB, Romaine lettuce and other greens and tons of water. I will try to stay under 25g for at least 6 out of the 12 weeks.
Exercise:
30-40min of HIIT 4x per week
Lifting: I want to drop some excess pounds and strengthen my core before going hardcore with weights so I will lift light for another week or two (just getting back into it as well).
Tools:
Alphamine
Compound 20
Vanillean
Reduce XT
Lean Xtreme (found part of a left over bottle, will dose this at 1 cap a day until gone)- thoughts?
Ketostix- to make sure I'm in Ketosis
So I've been on the diet for 13 days thus far and my supps just came in so I figured it should be logged as I didn't see anyone else try this stack yet. I took all of them already and I will say I feel great. The alphamine is delicious and I can definitely feel the warmth and a super clean and focused energy. This is definitely going to help get up early to go on those fasted morning jogs before work. Weight is right around 240lbs and I will do my best to update the weights weekly. Only update now is I tried the ketostix two days ago and confirmed I am now in Ketosis :biggthumpup: and my girlfriend said she can tell my face is beginning to thin out. The 'keto-flu' is now over and I feel great- it only lasted a few days though. For some reason I always did well with Keto in the past. That's all for today, let me know if you guys have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them.
