    5'7"
    chest/delts
    back/traps/rear delts

    arms
    legs
    off
    repeat

    Nutrition is low carbs most of the week at around 130g and below and then Saturdays I go high carb at around 300g and add in one big cheat meal. On low carb days I consume the carbs around my workout time and the rest of the day is protein and healthy fats. So about 300g of protein per day.

    Thanks Brother.. My quads and hamstrings are decent but I can't seem to get my calves to pop. I'm probably just gonna hit them every day from now on. Lol, I'm 37 now so I probably should have been doing that years ago..

    You have plenty of time. Prioritize them and train the FIRST every time. Just plain force them to grow.

    You are right man.. I remember when I was at the leanest stage weighing 165 pounds (from 194) I lost the control and started to binge eat every day and I couldn't stop man... screwed up everything and now im fat again

    How can you stay focused with only 130g carbs and below? Don't you get dizzy? tired? fatigue? low energy? Can you lift more weights with such a small amount of carbs? What about food cravings? don't you get them? I don't know how you get along with the nutrition but the reason im asking is because I had all those symptoms when I was eating 110g carbs a day

    The first week or so of low carb sucked but by body started to adjust to it and now it's just part of what I do. As long as I keep my carb intake around my workout times I don't get fatigued during my workouts. I definitely get food cravings but I know that I'll be able to reward myself on Saturday so that usually does the trick.

    Well that's good for you if you can eat your carbs around your workout times.. For me I train in the morning on empty stomach and then after I start eating for the rest of the day.

    Yeah usually under 80g and its made up of eggs with the most Omega -3s, I use macadamia nut oil and olive oil to cook my meat with and also occasionally put a bit in my protein shakes. Almonds (I'm careful with nuts though due to the high calories) and almond butter. And of course on my cheat day I take in a decent amount of saturated fats.

    So you take all 130 grams of your carpet split pre and post-workout?

    Can you outline one day for me in regards to when you consume carbs and when your gym session is?

    As soon as I wake up I make my egg whites and make pancakes out of 2 scoops of Rich Piana's real food which is about 40g of carbs. I then wait about 2 hours to go lift and once my workout is finished I'll drink my post workout shake which has protein and about 40-50g of waxy maize carbs. I then wait about 60-90 minutes t have my post workout meal which lately has been another 2 scoops of the "real food" along with a whole egg and egg whites. After those meals the rest of my day consists of eating chicken/steak salads, lean ground beef etc. I also buy Carb Master tortillas from Smiths to make the occasional burrito. They only contain 4g of net carb per tortilla.

    I've got a few buddies who compete and use it the correct way. It's effective if you use it short term at 200-400mg per day.

    Also even those who advocate dnp use use the term 'poke holes in the mitochondria'. I don't know about you but I want to keep my energy centres hole free....

    On and off for about 15 years but only recently have I started doing different things with my diet. Started gear about 2 years ago.
