August Most Improved Competition [ENTRY OPEN until start]

[Capebuffalo]

I can help you with the pictures... no excuse now haha

Good. You may give Kel a stroke if they are sideways.

[KittyO1]

That’s a different level of devotion. Good for you.

I’m in at 7:30. Take a pre workout at 7. That helps me. Out the door by 8.

I’d go later if I had a choice! Lol I’m almost 20 mins from the closest gym, 30-45 mins from work depending on which office we are in that day...no way to squeeze it in after work with family & church obligations. So I just suffer through the week on little sleep! Lol...Friday’s I’m off though, so I usually go around 8! I think it’s all the same devotion. Just finding what works best for you!

See I’d get there the first time but it would be a struggle for me to go back for cardio. Yeah that wouldn’t happen. Lol.

Fun fact of the day: I haven’t had any tobacco in almost 3 weeks. I think I’m past the gate now.

[Obs]

When I get time I am gonna try to get some friends here to liven this place up.

I will warn though, they are not used to censorship when it comes to their dirty minds.
None of them argue or talk shit but they are the dirtiest things online.

[bethdoth]

I’m up at 4:20 and lift at 5am. Lift from 5-5:45...go get my youngest on the bus and then head back most days from 6:30-7 for cardio. Have to be at work by 7:20.

WOW that is hard core. Only when I truly get serious do I manage to haul my ass out of bed at 4:30 AM get to the gym at 5 do 45 minutes HIIT and make it to work about 6:30. Then I lift after work at 3 PM.

[Obs]

I hear tell the viking may be coming back....

So you’re bringing your socks and underwear?

Shhh... some surprises coming. Maybe.

[Charlie67]

No carbs?

Not currently. I'm eating broccoli throughout the day, other than that, I eat 100carbs/day usually post-workout...sometimes I'll split it with pre-workout.

Lmao........just checking out what was going on........

I gotta stay on top of things...

Post workout shake

Yeah. I’m doing something wrong or don’t have the drive for any of that.

@Charlie

100 grams of carbs a day...everyday? You’re not carb cycling? How the hell do you get out of bed in the mornings? You may want to rethink that.

[Obs]

Attachment 174234heres my 3000 calorie lunch the last two days.

Yes I am supposed to be on a cut but my arms are growing and I aint wasting it....

I wung it.... Now i gotta check

[Capebuffalo]

As long as your body thinks it’s 3k it will process it as 3k. That’s how science works.

[Obs]

It was about 2700-2800 without the drink.

Sonic has some decent sized burgers!

Wow. I would not have thought that lunch would have bloated you. Must have been the pickles.

I have a bunch of kids, I assumed my drag-assyness was their fault?? Some of it is trying to gain a little knowledge about my chemistry. Random bullet points:

- After years of eating about 300g of carbs a day, I began to wonder if it was necessary. So I started recording my blood sugar with the assumption being that if I had "extra" sugar in my blood, I was either eating too many carbs and not using them, or I had some other issue(s). My blood sugar was routinely 120 on a clean diet, which read was pretty high.

- so over the course of a few weeks I started incrementally cutting carbs. I cut my carbs to 250, BS went down to 112(ish).... cut them to 200, BS was 106ish. 150g/BS100, finally at 100g of carbs, my blood sugar is regularly 95ish two hours post carb meal.

- around this time, I heard a few interviews with notable coaches who separately said that the first thing they do with new clients was make them go 0-carb for a month or two to "reset" their sensitivity to carbs. I have no idea if 'resetting sensitivity' is a real thing or not, but I thought, "eh, why not try it". That was the end of July and I thought I'd try it for 2 months.

-But.... Then I decided that I'd jump into this competition so that Guitarzan and Kitty would have someone to beat, and here were are, and that's why I'm still at 100g of carbs a day.

Its a work in progress and I'm not sure where to go from here... probably carb-cycling is the next step.

Wow. That’s extreamly detailed. That’s cool. I couldn’t function on that low of carbs every da. But I have a physical job as well. The cycling helped me cut a good bit of weight. And I could set my workouts accordingly like having legs on the high carb day and arms on zero carb day. So I wasn’t depleting myself.

[Obs]

I just invited some new members to this board.
I ask that they be recieved well.
They are not new and thorough as can be into the lifestyle.

They may not have hours to spend here every day but they are all great guys who do not perpetuate issues.

If they believe something different than other members then it needs to be accepted to disagree.
Not directing this at anyone. Just posted here becausecthis is the busiest thread.

Out of curiosity, can you give me an idea of how your week worked? Like did you have 2 high carb days, 3 low carb days, and two no-carb days? And on your no-carb days, did you eat vegetables like broccoli or anything?

[Charlie67]

Where'd my 'Like' button go????

If I remember it was zero low low medium high.

Back in Black is a wonder with it. Or was when he was helping me. The zero days were brutal on me
