I’ve decided to switch my diet to the anabolic diet, in an attempt to cut the remaining fat off while not losing too much muscle. I’m trying to come up with a diet currently that follows the guidelines set by the anabolic diet.
I’m trying to work out my [low carb] weekdays currently. This is where I am at (I have only included things w/ calories):
19 yo
202 lb
16% BF (want to get to 10%)
1st meal
4 scrambled eggs, cooked in butter, no milk
1.5 Oz cheese, cheddar
1 italian breakfast sausage
1 protein shake (~50g protein, 3g carb, 2 tablespoons udo’s 3-6-9 fish oil)
2nd meal
2 spears of broccoli, 5’ each (about 5 grams of carbs)
Good portion of Smoked Turkey cold cuts
A few pea pods (haven’t checked the carbs in them yet, will have to before I throw a number out)
1 coffee, black (I have heard that the caffeine helps in the effect of the AD, have not heard why, I may be wrong)
3rd meal
150g cooked ground beef
Celery stalk w/ peanut butter (~6grams carb)
Small greens salad (~6 grams carb), w/ vinegar and olive oil
Go work out, just water
4th meal
good portion cold cuts, pepperoni
50g cooked ground beef
1 protein shake (50g, 3g carb, 2 tablespoons of Udo’s 3-6-9 fish oils)
2 flax pills
5th
2 grilled chicken breasts or a steak
Can’t think of other things for this meal
6th meal
I draw a blank here as well, not sure if I should have a 7th and 8th meal either.
Since I am more interested in cutting than big gains, I would rather have 1 carb up day only, or stay with unmodified atkins and have none. What do you guys think?
I cannot come up with a carb-up day meal plan as of yet.
I also have loads of Maltodextrin/Dextrose from my previous diet, but I do not know what GI restrictions are on the carb-up day, as those are both pretty damn high.
If anyone can help me out that would be great. I know I will probably get reamed by the vets here for something I did completely wrong in the diet, and I accept that as an inevitability.
My supplements are:
Flax oil pills
Udo’s 3-6-9 fish oils (liquid, not pills)
Protein
Currently this is the only stuff I take. Some people suggested natural test boosters or HOT-ROX.
