Nice one pal, yeah some dedicated family time is always good, gave me time to think things through and readjust my life's goals a little or at least formulate a plan. I'm in Manchester now for a dirty weekend ;-))

Rested most of the week, diet was strict, discovered the reason to my bloating - wheat, then nearly killed myself with a hot chocolate, apparently a hot drink after an intolerant food just cooks it all up, so that was a day on the sofa.

Happy and confident with the progress iv made just recently, the plan seems to be working, yet again I'll be at another level, Mr England here I come lol

[bignath4607]

Good man, I'll train legs again with you again, I defi need pushing.
Can you see a difference ?
I felt bad for putting you off your comp, I'm just not good with sugaring stuff up. In my own way I was just trying to help push you on.
Even Arnie says its 70% diet.

[MR-FQ320]

£2.49, 200g, H&B, it was exactly what I was looking for :-))

[Back In Black]

yeah but pricey. That's probably 2 servings.

Definitely can't do wheat? Shredded wheat have great macro's too.

Well maybe in moderation, apparently it's a trial and error process, maybe just go without wheat for a bit and let it settle down. I loved the mini wheats, weigh em exactly, maybe three times a day sent me over the edge.

[MR-FQ320]

This was Friday night, very happy with the picture I was. Weighing about 218lbs

[MR-FQ320]

This morning, body fat guess anyone ?

The progress I have made this year is almost unbelievable, I can't wait to compete now, the pictures should be amazing, dropped the oats and the bloated guy just disappeared. Weight is 213.6 this week, but I have freaky shape when carbed up. Gifted with delts , I'm not happy wi tris lol

Developed chest and quads in the last 12 weeks, chest consists of
Arnold style incline chest press DB
Cable flyes
Cable crossovers
Decline bench on smith machine.
3/4 sets of 8-12 or till they're burning lol

[MR-FQ320]

This morning.

Dropped afternoon oats, 200g carbs, 240 pro, 70 fats.

[Duo]

You are looking sublime Mr, would you mind posting up your current daily diet please? Thank you for keeping this thread current, I am learning a lot from it.

Thanks, yeah no problem, I'm glad someone is gaining benefit from it, now it may be a bit hardcore but I am determined to win a trophy.

Basically, 1.1g/lb LBM 0.35g/lb LBM carbs work out the same as protein. And that works out to 40/40/20 - 500 cals a day less than tdee ( 3000).

No sugar, no empty calories, no bad fats ( fats come from fish and nuts ) , no dairy, no gluten, no wheat. Oats are also bloating me. No juice / pop.

Worth mentioning I'm not sleeping properly and waking up hungry during the night - so I eat my cereals.



330am 50g puffed brown rice gluten free cereal.
730 30g whey isolate
930 125 g mackerel / 200g herring
1200 120 g tuna and a whole pepper
1500 whey isolate
1800 200g chick Brest, 125 g basmati rice
1900 sugar free jelly
2000 50g cashews / almonds
0000 50g puffed brown rice cereal

Daily totals ;
Cals 2059 219p/50f/202c / 17s/10fiber

Like I said, iv dropped oats from afternoon whey, also dropped linseed and sunflower seeds from morning shake to boost fat loss.

[Duo]

Thanks Dude, looks like a very simple and easy to prep diet. Can I ask a few more questions please? Where do you buy the puffed brown rice from, how do you cook it and how many servings do you get from each pack? Is the 9.30 mackerel or herring or both and is this tinned?

Fire away..

Puffed brown rice is from any supermarket in the " free from " ( gluten ) shelves. It's a breakfast cereal, no need to cook, just pour soya milk on or egg whites for protein - I sometimes sweeten it with zero calorie sweetener. I guess it's quite expensive at four 50g servings per pack and pack costing £2. If I wasn't in contest prep I'd eat regular rice crispies as the nutrition is good, and more energy than oats per 100g.

Either or , yes tinned, very convenient and quick.

Saturday AM

[MR-FQ320]

Started clen this week hoping to shift the last 3/4 lbs of fat. 4.5 weeks to the big show, 3.5 to the warm up trial

[tarmyg]

Interested in your mood as mine is shifting around heavily at the moment due to the deficit.

[MR-FQ320]

I'm actually really happy right now, energy is good. I'm only in deficit by 500 cals mon-fri, rest is from cardio, refeed at weekends 3000cals high carb med protein, low fat.

[tarmyg]

I'm actually really happy right now, energy is good.

Amazing! I want to know that secret man :-)

[MR-FQ320]

Amazing! I want to know that secret man :-)

Simple: carbs at 1.1g/lb of LBM
Works out at 40/40/20
Whole foods, no empty calories, actually the calories are unimportant, feed the body the energy it needs to sustain its muscle mass, I'm on 240g carbs, 240g protein, 60g fats.

Actually the clen is depleting me something chronic, really fkn hungry and drained. Glad I left it shift the last couple of lbs.

I literally blow up like a balloon when eating carbs. No clue why I am that sensitive but if I look at the rest of my family they have the same problem. The only why who have been able to keep her weight in check is my sister after she switched to a completely zero carb approach. Her blood values also agree with that approach, the same for me.

I am following your progress extremely closely as it is motivating me when I am having tough days!

I am also " carb sensitive" but I use it to my advantages , once you have mastered carb manipulation the world is your oyster. The zero sugar diet has worked miracles for me, those are basically instant bloat material for me, a def no no,

Thanks for the follow bro, I'm happy to keep posting while ppl are reading and learning :-)

I have not tried to only remove sugars in all sorts. I will try this later in the year once this photoshoot is over.

Yeah, just keep posting. It's appreciated more than you know!

[MR-FQ320]

This was Monday, felt huge after a refeed weekend. Poor lighting , no tan, sub standard posing lol

[MR-FQ320]

So the clen I started Saturday has actually taken me a step backwards, I was that hungry I couldn't sleep and kept reaching for the Peanut Butter to subside hunger pangs, three nights later and I'd done the whole jar in. So I trained like fook yesterday, got back into reasonable shape by today( after a sleepless night). Sleeping pills purchased. Going to drop cashews and replace with Readybrek oatmeal before bed to keep me fuller for longer, I'm hoping it can have a positive effect on body composition too. I'll trial it a week and note the effects.

[Duo]

how did you get on with switching to the Readybrek FQ? Last set of pics look fkin awesome man, keep it going..

[MR-FQ320]

Well I'll be honest, the annilhation of a jar of peanut butter offset the fat loss last week, will try harder this week.

Carbed up at weekend and felt good and confident. Saw yesterday's winner at UKBfF and got a little deflated and self doubting crept in a little.

Upped cardio today, week 2 of clen.
Nolva adex and winny coming tomorrow hopefully. That lot should have me looking dry.

[MR-FQ320]

So I have replenished supplies of just about everything you could imagine, my gear and supplement regime is huge

Added this week
Winny 50mg ED x 2 am and pm
Nolva 40mg ED split am and pm
Adex 1mg Ed
Starting ECA next week and dripping clen for 2 weeks.
Test, tren, mast 1200/450/450 PW
Adrol 50mg ED
Creatine, glutamine, cualis

Diet 2700cals 43/43/14

Cardio: am fasted insanity
20 mile Ed bicycle

Weights; 3/4 sets of 15-20 for glycogen depletion.

Playing about with glycogen super compensation for some serious freakness and great show contest appearance.

First show two weeks on Saturday. Happy with where I am considering I've just started clen:, hoping eca suppresses appetite a bit.
