OWNED, BOYS!
Hoss hauls in the big “1000”.
Everybody over to my place for a cookout this weekend.
Hi all you AD freaks,
So I started playing lacrosse on my school’s club team yesterday, (practicing anyway), I kept up but maaaan is it ever a sprint-fest. Right now I’m doing WSSB on M,W,F but since these are my new practice days I’m going to switch 'em around to T,Th., Sat. starting next week. I was also eating 2700kcals/day 4X/week and 3500kcals/day 3X/week in an attempt to cut up. I lost an inch around my waist and gained 3lbs so I did well, but I’m going to go back to just eating the AD @ maitenance until I get the hang of the whole 3X/week practice thing.
Basically, I’ll let the large amount of high-intensity energy-systems work do the job of waving calories for me, instead of planning it myself. I’ll also stop taking HOT-ROX, with the idea that I can probably put it to better use when I’m “dieting”. What do you guys (and gals, can’t forget about Sab.) think of my new plan?
Thanks

Geez Hoss,
You got a post counter or ESP? Anyways, what are you fixin? We could throw a couple cows on the grill to start;) -the Starkdog
Another question;I’m currently on day 6 of the diet and plan to stick out the whole adaptation phase. I do try to limit alcohol as much as possible, the most I do now is maybe a couple of beers on fri. and sat. night. This being said, if I keep it under 30 carbs on both of these days, including any beer I might have, will the alcohol have any great hindering effect while in this induction phase. I am fully aware of the possible negative effects on testosterone and the like, however I was just wondering if it will mess up this initial part.
A few years back I had tried BodyOpus with little success sticking with the ultra-low carb recommendations it espouses.
More recently I had tried the Velocity Diet immediately after which I started the AD. I think this helped me in the initial 12 day induction phase, bec I didn’t have any huge crashes. Now it’s no problem at all keeping my CHO under 30g. Usually its 15-20g.
Thanks, in particular for the olive oil suggestion. I would say that 90% of my fats are from Olive oil, fish oil caps (20-25 a day), raw eggs (12-18 a day), and some ground beef.
I’ve been eating raw eggs for the past 15 years and never had a food poisoning problem. Am I just lucky or has anyone else never had a problem with the Rocky Balboa quick-meal?

Awesome, bro. Had you tried any other low carb variations previously?
Once people let go of the fear, it’s a really enjoyable way to physique enhancement.

I’m having a strange experience on this diet. I am trying to lose a little bit of fat and so have gradually decreased cals to between 2000 and 2500. My viens are standing out on my forearms and biceps better, but I don’t seem to be losing any overall body fat, as my waist and caliper measurements have stayed the same. My scale weight is down to around 199, from 202 three weeks ago, but I don’t really worry about that. Any ideas?[/quote]
I have had exactly the same experience for the last 3-4 weeks. Fat and waist measurement staying the same, but total weight going down!
From Monday I’ve started taking Hot-Rox. I’ll report my results in two weeks.
Has anyone noticed their skin getting more dry since they’ve been on this diet?
The other morning I got up and my muscles felt “drained” but I hadn’t worked out for a coule of days. Is this a normal response of the body to this diet?
Tomorrow is my 12th day and “Carb-up Eve”. I’m excited about it like a little kid on Christmas Eve.
So far the diet has been pretty easy. Haven’t measured or anything lately but depending on when I look I feel like I’m looking better in the mirror. Weight has dropped maybe 2 to 3 lbs on the scale. I’m interested to see what happens over the next few weeks.
HELLL YEAH!!!
I FINALLY got the book downloaded off of kazaa, took me almost 2 freakin months to find it! Nothing like a free book:) Gotta get to reading!

Is anyone using this diet to cut up? I’m currently on the usual low cal cutting diet. This diet seems very interesting and I was wondering if anyone could post a sample cutting-up menu of this diet. I’d really like to try this out.
Not to bust your chops but have you read this thread in its entirety? To answer your question, yes, I’ve been one of those people using the AD to cut.
to put it simply, I had gotten down to 12% BF using the Velocity Diet ingesting around 1800 kcals a day.
Over the last 2 months using the AD, I’ve gotten down to ~8% BF averaging 3100 kcal a day. And I’ve added strength, have more energy, sleep better, and am as horny as hell.
You tell me, which is the better situation?
Just get the book and read this thread. That’s all you need.

Okay more details. I am doing Westside for Skinny bastards, along with 15-20 minutes of jumping rope on Monday, sprints on tuesday wednesday, rugby on thursday, with friday and sunday off. No HOT-ROX.

Can you tell us what the file name is called of the book you downloaded? It may make it easier for others to find.
Thanks.

There is something in raw eggs that prevents you from getting all of the nutritional value. Cooking removes this thing. Sorry, don’t remember exactly what it was.

I just typed in anabolic on the search every freaking day and one day it just popped up and I SNAGGED that mofo!
If ya really have a hard time locating it, pm me and I will see what I can do!

Thanks grappler. I’ve read most of the threads on this topic and have decided to start the 12-day phase today.
I’m going to continue my morning cardio on empty stomach and see how quick I shed fat while on this diet. The first 12 days really shouldn’t be hard for me since I’m big on meat and salad and mayo 
I’ve been dieting the “old-fashioned” way for 5 weeks (Labor Day will mark the starting of week 6).
I’m going to extend the initial phase from 12-14 days just so that my carb loading begins on a saturday 2 weeks from now. Is that ok?

That’s okay, I did the 14 day induction phase as well. My first carb load was like heaven, and I was literally shaking after my Surge post workout. I’ve lost about 20 lbs. over the six weeks I’ve been doing it, and with almost no cardio.
For the last few weeks I’ve been holding steady at 260 give or take a few, and am still gaining on all my lifts. I don’t count calories at all, I just follow the diet protocols. I’m going to start a cutting plan soon, however, so I can try and get down to 245-ish.
Just had my first official AD lunch. (Don’t worry I won’t post every meal I have in a thread). Meal consisted of salad w/bleu cheese dressing, piece of chicken, piece of pork, and some creamed spinach. I was a little hesitant about the spinach, wasn’t sure the amount of carbs so I didn’t finish it all.
I’m already feeling better compared to the really low cal diet I’ve been on. I was going to grab a bag of peanuts for a snack later, but from reading the label it said it contained about 7 grams carbs per serving. These were unsalted peanuts too. I really enjoy nuts but I don’t want to throw the diet off because of the unnecessary carbs they have. Can anyone recommend any really low cal type of nut?
thank you guys! my waist size is 32 at 181 lb and 6.0 ft down from 34 in 9 weeks without hunger. I encourage everybody to try it!

Was that 7 grams of “impact” carbs? Carbs-Fiber = impact CHO.

That is awesome and encouraging. I’m coming out of my induction phase today and am looking forward to what this plan has in store for me.
Keep up the good work.
