    Ok first of all don't hate on me if I'm getting this wrong... It's just what I found. Here we go!




    Cortisol is a steroid hormone. Cortisol is termed catabolic as it has the opposite effect to testosterone , insulin and growth hormone in that it breaks down tissue.

    In fact cortisol, which is released by the adrenal glands under conditions of high mental and physical stress and high temperature, is the body's primary catabolic hormone. The three main functions of cortisol are:

    -The reduction of protein synthesis.

    -The facilitation of protein to glucose.

    -The halting of tissue growth.

    It is therefore essential that cortisol release is controlled if one is to facilitate muscle growth. As well as being released under conditions of stress and high temperature cortisol is also released first thing in the morning. Morning aerobics have been thought to be effective for this reason.

    However this is misguided thinking because exercising on an empty stomach first thing in the morning has been shown to actually intensify cortisol's effects thus resulting in further muscle loss, and consequently metabolic resistance to body fat loss.

    As little as 2-3 cups of coffee per day can elevate cortisol levels due to the stimulating effect of caffeine...


    I high lighted what I thought was interesting... Dont know how much truth there is to it though? Also two-three coffee's a day, well I'm there. Should I be worried?

    HI gbrice!

    1. In your 101 cutting thread, in the sample diet where you have only macros. 4th meal is like a real meal?

    2.Shake comes with after cardio and before 4th meal and you don't count it in?

    3.So consuming fats and carbs togehther is okay , but you need to have just little bit fats and more carbs, for example 60g carbs and 10g fats?

    4. I read the lable on the ketchup that I use on my chicken and so on, it had like 20 g carbs in 100 g. Can I use ketchup when I cut? If not , how I can replace it?

    Honestly I don't have much of a problem with most of what's stated here - alot is true, to an extent. The problem I have is that they don't discuss the benefits (and necessity) of cortisol. If it were nothing but a 'bad' hormone, don't you (collectively speaking) think that over time, our bodies would have done away with it?

    The key word here is ELEVATED levels of cortisol... that's where things can go wrong imo.

    Count it as in what... towards my daily totals? I most certainly do!

    It's definitely ok. I prefer to have one macro dominant over the other though, vs. both being heavy in one meal. And even when fat is the dominant macro, I try to keep it relatively low - i.e. I see no need ever for a meal containing 50g fat.

    Ketchup is SUPER high in sugar, and usually that's in the form of High Fructose Corn Syrup - that's some nasty crap. If you're going to use ketchup, try to do so sparingly. They do make sugar free ketchup - you can find it online pretty easily. Granted it doesn't taste like Heinz, but you'll get used to it.

    Better question is why are you eating ketchup with chicken ... sounds fvcking vile, lol!!

    I'm currently using thease macros: 246 g prot, 122 g carbs, 44 g fats, 2265 cals. My weight is around 83-84 kg.

    I'm currently waiting that I will get money onto my bank account so I will be attending gym next week.

    1. If my weight loss stops next week , should I deflict 300-500 calories , from fats and carbs?

    I have been dieting for over 4 months, my weight has dropped from 90-91 kg to 82.5-83 kg.

    I'm training 4 times a week and doing cardio 4 times a week 65 % max heart rate on treadmill.

    2. I've taken 2.5 break from gym due to tests and being sick. When I'm having long break like this from gym should I run my macros on maintenance level? Or should I continue using same macros?

    3. To which extend should I drop my carbs and fat?

    I don't really want to run a low carb or low fat diet, because those diets are pretty unhealthy in my mind.

    Cals might be a tad high for cutting at your weight... is this your macro split 7 days/week?

    I'd look to up cardio and/or activity before reducing calories further... that is once you find the right caloric level that's facilitating healthy/steady fat loss.

    All in context. I want to reiterate that we should keep most if not all of this in your own thread, as I don't want this one turning into a personal consultation thread. It's a general informational thread/Q&A mainly.

    Haha, thanks brother! Most of the guys I looked to for advice when I got here don't frequent the board much anymore... somebody had to step up and I felt I was up to task!

    Good to see you back around here though, it's been a minute.

    Yes I'm cutting and yes I'm running those macros 7 days a week.

    My weight dropped from 198 lbs to 182 lbs in 4 months.

    So you told me that I should look up into activity levels before changing calories.

    1. Should I change my cardio duration or should I add more intensity or should I add extra cardio session?

    2. Also, when I feel that need to drop calories , is the general rule to drop 300-500 calories from carbs and fats?

    I consume fruits in the morning is it a bad thing for dieting , or should I just rely on multivitamin?

    For one of my meals, I'm planning to eat 6oz (roughly 36g protein) of beef for 7 days straight, i'll weigh out 42oz beef, cook, then reweigh (weight changes during cooking as water is lost). Once I know my new weight, I divide by number of portions - in the example, 7 - and there I have my serving size.

    Same deal with carbs - if you cook rice, and a serving size is 1/2 cup dry, measure out however much you need, cook it off, weigh the finished product, divide by number of servings.

    Pretty easy, right? Does this answer your question?

    No prob bro. Don't get offended if I don't respond right away. I am very busy these days with an infant in the house and trying to keep my own thing together. Personal consultation is becoming increasingly difficult to upkeep!!

    Hey gbrice.... I love honey oats but no doubt there high in sugar and fat. I dnt mind the fat, will this be less beneficial for bulking compared to normal oats that dnt have the sugar n fat content. Cheers mate

    What are honey oats?

    Assuming they have more fat and sugar - I don't think they'd be any less beneficial for bulking, but they will probably be less beneficial with minimizing fat gains.

    I use plain oats, and sweeten with splenda and cinnamon. Add a banana and/or blueberries. Love it!!!

    gbrice have you looked into wheat grass like I had mentioned before? 2 servings is equivalent to 8 lbs of green veggies. Simplifies things a lot more.

    Actually, I did - quite extensively. I wound up taking it a bit further - in detail here:

    No worries. You actually got me going, lol - I just made a bowl of oats and instead of splenda, sweetened with honey. INSANE. I can never do that again, the taste is too good and it will fvck me up for life!!!

    Regarding insulin spikes and muscle growth - I wouldn't think to hard on it tbh. Train your ass off, hit your macros, and you will grow. The longer I do this, the more I feel like - leave all of those tiny little details for the pros and people stepping on stage. Us 'regular' guys think too hard on this stuff, and lose sight of the basic fundamentals - the meat and potatoes of it all.

    Hey GB wats up??
    Just thought I would drop by and update my previous suggestion on how I like my oats. I eat them uncooked like a cereal with splenda and blueberries. Well the other day I only had about a 1/3 cp of skim milk left so I added water to my bowl to make up the difference. I let it set for a minute so the "starch" or whatever comes out of the oats...It was great, I didnt even notice the diff...Anyways that is how I eat it everyday now..Thought you might want to give it a shot, it really cuts down on the cal/fat and you feel satisfied. The "starchy" substance that comes off the oats makes it creamy like..
    BTW I mixed 1/2cp grape nuts with 1/2cp uncooked oats with above ingredients and DAAaaammn it was good..
    Retarded amount of Carbs though...eheheheh...
    Nice little thread you got going here...

    I dnt know this might be a stupid question but I'll ask anyway, I'm almost as big as I want to get and soon I want to start cutting up. If I change to a protein only diet so no carbs whatsoever will I start to lose muscle or will I be able to maintain what ive gained?

    Meh, if it's not your thing then so be it. There are plenty of comparable options that you probably do like. My staple personally is oats.

    Here's the problem for me mate... I don't have any milk in my diet, and grape nuts are SUPER calorie dense! I agree, both sound pretty delicious and I might try as a 'side note', but I wouldn't be able to make either a staple, unfortunately!

    Thx for stopping by bro, always good to see you around!!

    That's kind of a loaded question, and way too many factors come into play to give a simple answer. If you switched to a protein only diet, your body would have to resort to gluconeogenesis - laymen terms your body will have to convert a non-energy source (protein) into usable energy (glucose) - an inefficient, energy costly process. You read that right - energy costly. Your body requires energy to make energy... how about that?? Same basic principle applies to when your body needs to breakdown lean tissue to convert to energy. So, you will probably cut up all right, but imo this isn't a particularly healthy way to go about it. I was actually having a debate recently with Dukkit about this very thing!

    Carbs aren't the enemy bro, you should be fueling your body when needed. Properly placed, and in proper amounts, you can cut up very nicely. I went from 195lbs @ ~15% bodyfat to 177lbs @ ~11% with a diet that had carbs 4 days out of 7. 3 days @ 100g, and 1 day at 200g. The other 3 days of the week was zero starchy carbs.

    Carb cycling bro... I swear by it now, you should look into it if you're looking to cut and preserve LBM.

    What flavor of IF are you looking into? I would suggest checking out leangains dot com. I know Corey is a fan of IF - he might even be doing it atm.

    As for going straight from keto into IF - I don't know that i'd do that... sort of one extreme to another... I'd probably run a standard/traditional diet for a few weeks to transition more smoothly. Might want to run that one by Corey though... he'd surely know better than I.

    Heya, you missed thease 3 questions

    1. Should I change my cardio duration or should I add more intensity or maybe add extra cardio session?

    2. Also, when I feel that I need to drop calories , is the general rule to drop 300-500 calories from carbs and fats?

    3.Should I ditch the fruits in the morning while i'm on cutting diet and just rely on multivitamin?
