Yeah Bug, skiploading is weird as hell. I skipload Thurs night, after legs. I eat around 6 cups oats, 1 quart of low fat ice cream, and other miscellany. I feel pretty great Friday, shitty-ish Saturday, normal Sunday, meh Mon, shitty Tues, decent Wed, then I’m pumped for another load. no pun intended.
And wait…Do you and HolyMac engage in premarital sex? This is a BBing forum, not some perverted internet meat market…lol
Thanks hlss and bug.
I can’t stick with no carbs long, so I have no idea about the rebound effects of the carb-up day. Pardon, skipload day.
Hmm, I just looked up where the word “skiploading” came from. I was far off, I thought it was because people skip with joy that they get to have carbs. That’s what I do on my cheat days.
But nope.
haha Nikki…pretty close! I’ve also noticed that when dieting, especially doing an IF style diet w/ 2 meals a day + peri-shakes, I can eat A LOT. The other day I missed my 1st meal, and come nighttime, I downed 18 whole eggs w/ 2 slices of cheese and a whey shake. Granted that was all I ate for the day, but damn was that sucker tasty!
Before skiploading, were you not familiar about refeeds?
^ who is that directed towards? I was, and handled my refeeds diferently last time I dieted. This has been working better for me.
besides being more shredded than a julian salad, I noticed something about your avatar (no homo)… you have quite the uh… tan disparity between your upper and lower half. hahahahah
thats a pretty sweet chest day. 325x5 is good especially since you were up all night giving it to that swimsuit model and didnt eat much today cause she wouldnt let you get out of bed… obvi
twas directed towards you! 
What does a typical eating day look like during the week?(if you don’t mind?)
Damnit greg, not all of us can pull off the speedo. But I tan at my school’s pool, so I can’t be totally nakes, yet ;). GOD SORRY I JUST WANT YOU TO ACCEPT ME.
mom (lol), ok it’s basically like this. This will be an average training day.
Wake up: 7:30AM Go to class hungry and miserable. Lol no not really, I’m used to it now.
12:30PM - First meal. Usually 6-8oz chicken, steak, or ground turkey, accompanied by broccoli. Occasionally this first meal will just be 50g whey accompanied by 2tbsp PB, but not usually.
3:30-4PM (somewhere in there) - Second meal. Pretty much identical to meal one.
5:30PM - 50g whey. 10min later, start having my preworkout carbs on way to the gym (usually 30-40g worth, from either poptart, cereal, or MG’s Powdered Muscle).
6PM: Lift. Usually in there 60-80min. 25-30g whey PWO.
8PM or so - final meal of the day. It’s always a little different depending on exactly what I ate that day (i.e. some days I go a little lower carbs, or if I ate PB then I usually have to make other adjustments). Usually I’m eating around 14oz of chicken breast (cubed) and around a cup of white or brown rice.
Macros for the day are ROUGHLY 80-90g fat (I think, fat usually just falls wherever it does), carbs around 110-140g (less than that on off days if possible, lol, and maybe a little more on leg day), and protein usually 260g-290g. Calories are between 2000-2500 depending on the day and what I’m lifting.
Off day today, studying and writing papers. Woot.
Big, strong, lean and even young. Great work man!
Nice…we eat almost identical, which is why I’m bugging you (only you take in a bit more of, um, everything)
…I’ve been doing refeeds/free meals for awhile…but now I’m beginning to wonder if maybe I’m not lean enough yet for refeeds.
Glad it’s working for you…happy studying!
Are you in “diet mode”, 100%, or are you just kind of eating clean around maintenance levels? Because I’d imagine if I wasn’t in a real caloric deficit, the refeeds probably wouldn’t have the same effect.
I imagine if you check out Skip’s Longetivity DVD (which has been posted online), you will probably find some other good info.
Bug, why don’t you start your day off w/ some of those high grade apple cider EAAs we’re all loving?
Uh, one, to save money, two, I don’t think I need it. I like doing cardio totally fasted.
Had a pretty perfect day of eating today. Knocking out work here at home, with plenty of bullshitting snuck in there…
Tomorrow is legs. Ooooh boy.
uhh, I’ve been in diet mode for like 2 years
Only now easing off…smashing weights and adding more cardio. But still keeping the eats clean.
Something I shoulda just done to begin with. Bet I’d look better…
Anyway, I’ve checked out the longevity stuff and have been reading a lot over there.
Thanks!!
2 years? wtf lol. that’s cant be good for the metabolism. Did you start at 300lbs? But hopefully some of that stuff serves you well.
Had a good leg day today. Cut the squats as those have been damaging my ego and not feeling that great to be honest. Did a little less volume than normal I think, but I had some new music and my focus was pretty damn good.
Some calf machine (you sit in an immovable seat and press? lol)

SLDLs - been a while since I’ve done these with any decent amount of weight with a barbell. I intended to go to 315 but 275 felt right. With my hardcore preexhausted hammies, they were reallllly hitting the spot. Don’t think I’ve ever felt them as much as I did today. Very controlled negative and hard squeeze.

Quads hella pumped. Was gonna do more but i was crashing and I wanted to end on a good note. Yay!
Hey now, that’s not bad! I must be approaching 2 years soon too. I had a lot more “refeeds” than MiM though. That girl is dedicated with the diet. 7th day of dieting I’m ready for pizza.
She counts Cheez-its. Awesome.

Quads hella pumped. [/quote]
With your quads, I believe this
Lol fair enough.
Lol @ my babyquads. <3
That’s an insane hammie workout my friend. You’re gonna feel worse than Robert Downey Jr. in the '80s tomorrow morning
Pretty solid SLDLs for going “light” lol
Do you think you’ll keep an IF diet when you get back to gaining?
Yeah man, hammies are currently making it very difficult to walk.
Thanks Ashy. For the foreseeable future and “maintenance period”, I will likely continue an IF-style diet, some cardio, etc, as I will be trying to maintain leanness while gaining back a little bit of muscle and as much strength as possible.
