Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

so how is it going now? is it two days no carbs two days low carbs?

for contest prep i go 2 days high 2 days mid 2 days low 2 days zero and then the cycle starts over again. for me and most of the people that i have worked with it works very well because the body can never adapt to it and the plus side is you really are only miserable for maybe 2 days out of the cycle if that. it makes it far easier to stick to and it makes the fat loss very slow and steady 99% of the time. i have had success with set carbs but i was hungry all the time and pretty miserable for the whole duration of the diet and keto haha no freaking way for long periods of time. i did 30 days and i thought i was either going to die or i may have killed someone. on top of that with the keto i lost a ton of muscle and had a tendacy to pass out when i pushed cardio to hard or trained to hard. that told me that keto for extended periods was not good for my body. so i learned carb cycling from an old national level dude that i worked for, tweaked it a bit and this is the plan that i came up with myself. the rest has been gravy ever since with some slight tweaks here and there

No carbs and you pick Easter?? NO of course not. Mr disciplined is on his game no matter what day you're worst diet day falls on. You are the man.

haha, i didnt pick the day that it landed on it is unfortunately how my zero days fell this cycle. it's cool though cause today is full carbs so i get my energy back for a while. the diet root beer was nice though

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

today:

cardio off day(my favorite days cause it is leg work day)

tris/hams
10 min treadmill warmup
rumble roller work/stretching
v bar pressdowns 35x30 50x40 70x50
reverse grip pressdowns 60x20 70x20 80x20 90x20 these were done leaning forward with elbows out in front. trying to emphasis the inner and middle head of the tri
incline db extensions 25x20 35x20 45x15 55x11
seated leg curls 60x20 90x20 as to ds 75x10as 90x10as 105x10as 120x10as 135x10ds 120x10ds 105x10ds 90x20ds 75x20 (these were a freaking train wreck. i got the pad to tight and as my hams swelled with the pump from blood it pushed harder and harder into my thighs. so needless to say no shockingly awesome numbers on these at all and even thought the pump was insane, i wanted to push more and came up short
ham killers x8/3
hs seated leg curls ss 25x10(10)ss 35x10(10)ss 45x10(10)ss 55x10(10)ss (these were done single leg for the first number and then both leg for second number)
bb stiff leg deads ss 145x10 195x10 225x10 185x10
i had a different workout mapped out for todays ham training but since the holiday weekend kicked off and everyone was out of work the gym was slammed. so i had to improvise on the fly. i was supposed to do lying leg curl nasty sets and lunges but the pump from the first round was silly and the machine was taken. i waited for a little bit and then changed gears and moved on. still a good workout even though i dont like doing rack pulls or deads in the same week as stiff leg deads.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

i cant wait to be able to have cream of rice more than once a day. i love that damn sugar free jelly and cream of rice! thanks again! any updated pics?

if you are using the approach that we talked about earlier. you can have it for both sets of your carbs. 150g first one and 150g on the second one. it wont hurt and it should help keep you pretty dry

i will see if i can get some leg shots done this weekend when i have had a day off from training. i need to shoot some more videos for sure
