Tweetlast cycle of 1-ad I did, I felt sluggish and got more headaches than usual for the first week or so, but it went away. strenght gains are great though.

[Time4Growth]

TweetI think you gotta eat more. When I did my 1ad/4ad you feel sluggish for at least the first week, but it goes away.

Tweet40 grams of carbs and 30-50 grams of fat is what I would think is making you sluggish, your body needs something for fuel.

What are you trying to accomplish? I assume cutting? I think calories in general are too low, protein too low and you need to up the carbs or fat.

You are right ,I am cutting. The reasons my calories are low are because my job is not at all strenuous. I am behind a desk all day.I am going to get somme protien powder and up protien intake to 200 grams ed. I will increase fat intake to about 70 grams.

TweetWeek 2

I still could not tell anything as far as apperance.

BF% unchanged.

Weight about the same

Strength was through the roof on everything. I went from struggling with 205 on my last set of 6 close grip bench to 225 yesterday.

I took some before pics and will compare at the end.

No sides except mabey a little sluggish. ECA before workout helps there.

TweetYour diet it brother. Lay it on us. Figure your BMR and you'll be sittin on top of the world...

[Speedracer59]

TweetBreakfast 4-5 egg whites 2 pieces wheat toast 2 pieces of deer sausage

Mid morning: pack of tuna or Protien bar

Lunch: 2 cans of Tuna or 1 rotisary Chicken or 10 small baked chicken tenders( skinless)

Mid afternoon: same as mid morning.

Early afternoon: can or 2 of tuna

Dinner(post workout): approx. 8oz deer tenderloin, can of tuna or 2 grilled chicken breast with a small baked potato or a green veggie.

snacks: mostly nuts and natty pb. sometimes soybeans

I think my diet is my weak point . I cant afford a bunch of variety but I did invest in some protien which should be here next week.

I still have about 15 lbs of fat to drop so I do cardio after workout which could be hindering my size gains.
Also I have to note the body fat calculator I use is one of those crappy hand held electric deals.

[YellowJacket]

TweetWell if you're doing cardio and eating only 2000-2500 calories, you're at a fairly significant caloric deduction. Lose your 15lbs brother and shoot for maintaining your strength. What you're trying to accomplish is very tough

[Speedracer59]

TweetI am going to up my calorie intaketo 3000-3500 and protien to 200-250grams ED.
