This is a question only time can answer! Nobody knows how long it will take anyone to get to single digits. There are to many variables. If you had 2 people with the same stats,same diet,same training, they will both see different stages and outcomes. Its the beauty of bodybuilding,to push yourself past the limits and be amazed at what becomes of you!..TOP

The secret to success in the bodybuilding world is not drugs,diet, or training. While all those things must be present ,without one key ingredient they all are worthless...........CONSISTENCY!

Well I lost 5 lbs last week and put 2 back on after the 2 day carb load. My carb load wasn't really strict and I ate a lot! All in all I'm happy with that and have raised my fat and lowered my carbs even more this week.

TOP in the link posted above the writer states "Some have found to enjoy a protein shake afterwards because they are easily digested. Do whatever works for you. But fat is not logical since you want the protein to fuel the healing process as quickly as possible and fat will only slow it down."
However you do take Udo's with your shake so what is your thought on what the writer says. Thanks

You will have many different opinions on this,but you need some sort of energy source PWO no matter what!
EFA's have been proven to help increase energy production,help us to repair and manufacture our cell membranes,and they aid in recovery, oxygen delivery to muscles, have anti-inflammatory properties,and increase
protein synthesis. Efas are greatly beneficial for overall health, and perhaps most important to young bodybuilders, EFA’s promote good circulation. The ability to move increased amounts of blood to different parts of the body increases the likelihood that essential amino acids will be delivered to muscle tissue. Especially post-workout, the ability to move protein-rich blood to the trained area directly affects whether new muscle growth is initiated and sustained, or not. Additionally, the increased circulation leads to longer cardio endurance, better pumps, and more blood being pumped into the muscle group.
But like i said before you still will have others that like the idea of dextrose and other carbohydrate sources post workout. Which is why you should take it upon yourself to learn your body and do what works best for you...TOP

TOP,
This is some great info. I can't believe ur taking the time to answer everyone's questions individually and specifically; just amazing.
What do you think about CKD for someone who has just recently started working out?
I did atkins a couple years ago and lost a lot of weight (I'm 6'1" and went from 240 -> 190). However, I didnt work out AT ALL and my physique showed it. I was skinny in some places but still pudgy in others. I kept the weight off for a while, but surely, little by little I’m back up (220) and NEED to get my as* in gear. I find this post, and other's story very motivating.
This time around I want to definitely hit the weights.
Is this a good W/O Diet plan for a beginner?

danielli, i would say this is a difficult diet plan for a beginner, but ocnsidering you said you already did an atkins diet it should be much easier for you. Just resist the carbs because your body will probably crave them especially if you are just starting working out too.
GL though

also, what are udos? lol

[QUOTE=danielli;5040487]TOP,
This is some great info. I can't believe ur taking the time to answer everyone's questions individually and specifically; just amazing.
What do you think about CKD for someone who has just recently started working out? REFER TO POST #106.
I did atkins a couple years ago and lost a lot of weight ATKINS IS A KETO DIET,A SKD, THIS IS SIMULAR TO THE ATKINS BUT IS TARGETED TOWARDS PEOPLE WANTING TO LOSE BF AND MAINTAIN MUSCLE MASS. (I'm 6'1" and went from 240 -> 190). However, I didnt work out AT ALL and my physique showed it. WORKING OUT IS A MUST! I was skinny in some places but still pudgy in others. I kept the weight off for a while, but surely, little by little I’m back up (220) and NEED to get my as* in gear. I find this post, and other's story very motivating.
This time around I want to definitely hit the weights.
Is this a good W/O Diet plan for a beginner? ITS A VERY SIMPLE PLAN TO STICK WITH,ONE COULD SAY ITS SO EASY A CAVEMAN COULD DO IT,LOL(CORNY I KNOW) BUT IN ALL SERIOUSNESS MOST PEOPLE IVE WORKED WITH DONT HAVE THE DISCIPLINE OR DRIVE LIKE OTHERS DO,SO BY DOING THIS DIET YOU DONT FEEL STRANDED ON A DIET ISLAND,INSTEAD YOU GET TO EAT ALL THE THE THINGS YOU WANT TO(WHEN ITS TIME TO) THEREBY ALLEVIATING THE MOST COMMON PROBLEMS IN DIET.....MENTAL FAILURE![/QUOTE]

ohh great im gonna get me some of that.
Also what i found was intersting for the CKD diet in Bodyopus was the supplimentation of chromuum and vandyl sulphate increases insulin sensetiviy, which means, form what i understand, your body will produce less insulin to get its same effect.
This seems like it would be a good idea for the week days to further your chance of staying in ketosis when having your carbs, even though you are having very little.
Unfortunetly idk the dosage, im sur eit would say on the supp bottle if you bought it.
And if you used these before would u recomend it

Good job. I have lowered the cals by about 300 and up fats by 13 grams, carbs about the same. I'll see how this goes for the next few weeks (i.e, feel, lose, look) and report back.
As I said my carb load days weren't the cleanest but not too bad, worse thing was the drinking but I only drink vodka and water.

The reason he mentioned GDA(Glucose disposal agent) is to get the remaining glucose out of the system to give you a better fighting chance to achieve ketosis quicker. But like ive said i dont agree with a few things in the book and "ketosis" is one of them. Ketosis is only the side effect of having low low carbs you shouldnt lose sleep trying to get into ketosis.With carbs being low and fats being high your body will do what needs to be done. Those supplements, are just that ,supplements! They may help but dont rush out to purchase a weeks worth of pay on them!!...TOP

Slowly i creap down but when cutting it looks like this
fri-214LBS
sun-220LBS
fri-212LBS
sun-218LBS
fri-210LBS
sun215 so on and so forth i still lose weight but it fluctautes due to muscle glycogen.
Although monday is always fun because i look like the incredible hulk with veins and pumps!!
Also it differs with ketosis agter 3 days or so of training heavy and cardio i have acheived it in 2 and a half days but when starting ouit took me alot longer.Now i dont piss on sticks anymore,i just do the same thing as i do when on the 40/40/20....watcH the mirror,i dont watch weight or clothing,i read the mirror!..TOP

MG explain it to her like this.. "it is estimated that every gram of glycogen stored is associated with about 2.7g of water" hintz the weight gain....from water!
I bet she is pissed at you hahaha

when I was on an SKD, it took about a week for the color to change to dark red. Anytime after that, if it went back to light pink it meant I snuck some carbs in somehow (sometimes unintentional.)
I think TOP's point though is not to focus too much on the ketosticks...just like getting on the scale, if you let yourself, you can become just as obsessed with "pissin' on a stick"
