Btw is soup ok to eat? I find it to be more filling and I'm able to surpass hunger longer.

lol i too found solace in soup for the famine phase!

just keep an eye on the amount of servings listed and the sodium content.

^^thx bro will keep it mind

todays calories


had fried apples and cinnamon, was amazing, felt like i had pie!

Wow, you've got this diet tracker down to a science.

Nice work!

1 more day!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice. You're going to have a great run, especially with this type of attention to detail

Famine: workout # 3
Squat [200] 10, 10, 10
Single Arm Cable rows [65] 12, 12, 12

Standing Barbell Curl [75] 10
incline db curl [40] 8
Concentration curl [40] 7

Workout was done within 20 minutes with warm ups..

tried for 30 second breaks between each set, was hard.. glad it was quick

last day on famine

I was feeling fricken lethargic today, took a pre-workout, Muscle Marinade. Imho if Jack3d doesnt do much for you, this wont.. it gave me some energy and woke me up a bit, but gave me limp dick :S

Congratulations on making it through!

You did it man. The hard part is over. Now, time to reap the BIG rewards! Nice work

my last day

Damn nice.

Doing it justice man, doing it justice...

already gave into indulgences today had about 5000 calories with nit picking at food.. ~450 + carbs and ~400 proteins. most food was nutrient rich.. only kinda bad thing I ate today was a creme protein shake that I used for milk in my cereal and pudding that I had later on today..

Breakfeast

2 slices toast [180]
1 cup of potatoes [113]
2 eggs [147]
5 oz of roast [230]
Total macro's 670 Calories, 63,2 grams protein, 62.6 Carbs, 15.9 Fats

lunch meal

2 pitas
+ 5 oz of roast beef
+ 2/3 cups of cheese
~657 calories. 62.3 Protein. 40.7 carbs and ~24 grams of fat




same as meal lunch meal but more veges.

just a side questions what should I aim for my macros to be during phase II, normally I try for 50 - 30 - 20, but i think ive read that carbs need to be higher than protein and to keep ~1.5 grams of protein for body weight, but since my calories will be changing as I pass through this stage will my macros change as well?

5,000K/day, sweet

Macros.... yes, you have a nice split there. I do recommend a slightly higher carb intake (60%) at least earlier on. It's important insofar as getting traction early, likely due to the insulin activation in delivering nutrients like glycogen/amino back into the muscle cells.

You're doing a fine job here and love the pics. Good eats

Hows this for Macro Break Down?
Days 1-3: 30-60-10
Days 4-42: 35-45-20


also, for edt blocks do I warm up or jump right into it?

Very good.

On the EDT blocks, I usually perform 1 warmup, then run with it...
