oh by the way i got more bloodwork cuz ive been off adex for a month to see where im at and i had them check my liver and kidney function.. both of them were back to normal.. so it appears a high protein low carb cycle type diet over a period of time can wreak havoc on the kidneys and liver just like i read about online..
a month ago my TRT doc told me to go to my PCP and get more bloodwork done because my liver and kidney function were elevated.. being a typical guy i procrastinated and didnt go (LOL) and hoped when i did follow-up bloodwork (this time) because i had discontinued the carb cycle that my function of both organs would again return to normal.. well they did.. she said my liver was perfect and my kidney function while still slightly elevated was a lot lower than previously and nothing to worry about!
point being.. high protein/low carb/veggie only diet can cause ur kidneys and liver to work harder than they should have to.. food for thought! (pun intended)

ok guys ive been a lazy butt long enuff! pretty much since i left for the cruise on april 28... so as a result i am gonna do a 4 week carb cycle cut starting tomorrow am! no more procrastinating..
something like:
moderate: 2200cals, 290g pro, 150g carbs 49g fat (100g from starch, 50g from veggies)
low: 1800cals, 290g pro, 50g carbs, 49g fat (all veggie)
high: 3000cals, 290g pro, 350g carbs, 49g fat (300g from starch, 50g from veggies)
think i may change the split to:
day1 (mon) low: (am fasted cardio, depletion total body)
day2 (tues) low: (depletion total body)
day3 (wed) low: (am fasted cardio only)
day4 (thurs) low: (am fasted cardio; pm mid range weight, mid range reps total body)<--- might have 50g carbs PRE W/O and PWO here..
day5 (fri) high: (off)
day6 (sat) moderate: (heavy total body)
day7 (sun) moderate: (pm cardio HIIT, LIC combo)
this kind of models ud2.0 but i dont run 50% maintenance on low days and instead do 1800 cals.. and instead of 1300g carb load i just do a decent range refeed and introduce carbs back into the diet on day4 pre w/o and pwo.. depending how this works i may switch up in week 2 to model ud2.0 mainly just cuz i love the 1300g carb pig-out fest LOL
i need to get all the fat off me thats here cuz i didnt transition well from cutting to maintenance due to the vacation in the middle..
bf% came back today btw @8.55% at 191 lbs.. but i feel fatter than that i want to get as ripped as possible and then start maintenance like stem did prob @2400 cals for 2 weeks and then go up 100-200cals per week.. but first this fat has to go!!!
after this my goal is to establish a true maintenance by the end of august and then start an aggressive bulk.. maybe a bulk cycle.. theres a local BB contest here in june and im gonna go this yr and chek out the competition and maybe try to get a good bulk cycle followed by a cut cycle and maybe enter it next year depending how those 2 (or 4) cycles go.. ill prob need some input on this as far as timing goes.. 12week bulk cycle should be followed by 12 weeks off and then 12 week cutting cycle.. but this will have to be close to comp time if i decide to enter.. thats 36 weeks which will mean i have to wait later than august to start.. of course i also will have to get my TRT dialed in.. still trying to do that with my AI..
kind of a rambling post but i need some goals.. ive noticed about myself without goals i stagnate and thats not good.. need to be striving constantly

Seems like you know exactly where you want to be and that's a great thing.
I start a cut tomorrow. I have a definite goal for short and long term. Can't wait to get started.

yeh thx i usually shoot for 12 but this past few weeks while running maintenance and being lazyish i was doing @ 16 sets.. but that was also for 2 bodyparts on a 3 day split
sometimes maybe 18sets such as:
chest:
flat 4 sets
incline 4 sets
pec deck or cables or both 4 sets
bb curls 4-6 sets

-
05-29-2012, 11:43 AM #2145

LOL tell me about it.. also i get to combine along with the extreme caloric deficit the total elimination of "starchy" carbs for 4 days! and the added bonus of a 2 day total body depletion workout! in a way its kinda nice in the sense i feel like im doing something again.. maintenance was demotivating and boring... although once i get bf where i want it i think ill be ok with it.. i just didnt like it cuz i think im still carrying a little fat from my cruise.. maybe 5lbs..

I guess it's a case of if the such strictness is worth the results, in your case, I would say it is. I tried UD 2.0 on my deployment (not as clean and correct as yours) but I would just keep thinking about the carb weekends lol. I would get euphoria and sleep like a baby on the weekends it was crazy lol.

05-29-2012, 03:42 PM #2150
yeh the carbload thru the weekend is great.. day 4 pwo thru day 5 especially! i originally intended to just do a standard carb cycle but then i got to thinking about my refeed day being only 300g carbs and thought " man thats not enuff... if i just drop cals another 400 on days 1-4 i can eat 1300g carbs with cereal and bagels and stuff LOL".. and here i am.. plus i had decent results with ud2 for the first 3 weeks.. after that i just maintained bf%.. im also hoping the month of maintenance reset whatever was in "diet mode" and maybe ill see better results than i did the last time..
im not fat at all and can see abs to a certain extent still but have the stubborn fat love handle area that was gone and is a little chubby now after vacation and i hate it! gotta go.. i think once its gone again i can run maintenance and keep a good eye on it.. it kinda developed almost overnite after the cruise..

I know i was gone for a long time but you are at 191 at 8%, did you bulk while i was gone?? Did i miss something?? Man you are my idol lol I still got a little bit to be at 8% and not to mention weight will be at 180 most likely !!! God i wish i had your 600% commitment!!!! Envy moment!!!

05-31-2012, 01:08 PM #2154
No i am sure you are there i didnt mean it in a negative way is just that i am at 164lb lbm last bodpod and if i continue at that weight 8% for me would be 180 or a little lower so you can imagine when i see you at 8% but 191 how envious i feel lol but hey whatever it takes right!!?
After im done cutting im going to hit that bulk like there is no tomorrow!!!! My strength is gone to shyt, obviously my size, but im hopeful that when i bulk i will gain the lbm back fast........Key word Hopeful
Keep up the good work bud!!! Enter that competition, maybe after you i'll get inspired myself lol. Yeah right, that was a joke people
