As Promised, Makavelli's Cycle and Diet

[Makavelli]

how do u know when your body goes into ketosis?

The first thing you can do to check is to test your blood sugar with a glucometer. If it's 40 or under you're in. You can piss on keto sticks. They will show varying degrees of ketosis, but they may show that you are not in when you actually are. This is due to not eating enough calories. Therefore you're using all the ketones. You also will feel better and will have a supressed appetite.

It's a big risk anytime you've been dieting for an extended period of time. Your body is perfectly set up to pack on the fat again due to a variety of factors including elevated LPL levels. LPL levels sensitize your fat cells to the effects of insulin. It's best to stay on the ckd, but raise your cals to maintenance for a couple weeks. Then add in the carbs. I would suggest staying on T3 for the first 4 weeks after you're done dieting. This will greatly help to reduce the amount of fat gained post diet.

Appraching it cyclically works well too(along with what mak said about T-3 and fat burners)

try slowly entering carbs using high medium and low carb and very low carb days(maybe only a 60 carb difference each day).....tends to work really well

not to steal your thread Mak..

Here's my cycle and diet that I used for my photo shoot. I can't post it in the original thread due to board rules. It's in the gallery. Here's the link to it: http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=451418

My cycle was as follows:

My cycle for this shoot was:

Weeks 1-9: duo test from UG Vet(prop and cyp blend) 750 mgs/wk

Weeks 1-9: EQ 1 G/wk

Weeks 2-7: Tren 470 mgs/wk, Weeks 8-9: Tren 700 mgs/wk

Weeks 2-5: Winstrol 470 mgs/wk, Weeks 6-9: Winstrol 700 mgs/wk

Weeks 5-7: Proviron 50 mgs/day, Weeks 8-9: 100 mgs/day

Weeks 1-7: Clen 140 mcgs/day

Weeks 1-9: T3 ramped up to 75 mcgs/day

Weeks 1-9: Arimidex 2 mgs/day

Weeks 1-9: Nolvadex 25 mgs/day

I'm going to post the diet that I started off with. Keep in mind that my diet changes as I go along. The body is dynamic and so the diet must follow.

Training days:

Meal 1-3/4 C. old fashioned oatmeal, 50 g of whey
Train and cardio
Meal 2-1/2 C. old fashioned oatmeal, 30 g of dextrose, 50 g of whey, 20 g of creatine, 600 mgs ALA. (You can replace the oatmeal and dextrose for 2 packs of sugar oatmeal, but I had a lot of dextrose that I got for free so I used that instead)
Meal 3-8 oz. chicken, 4 oz. yam, 1 T. natural peanut butter
Meal 4-Same as 3
Meal 5-8 oz. eye of round, 2 T. natural peanut butter
Second session of cardio...
Meal 6-8 oz. eye of round, 25 g of whey, 1 T. Flax oil, brocoli

Off Days:
Cardio
Meal 1-1/2 C. old fashioned oatmeal, 50 g of whey, 1 T. Flax oil
Meal 2-8 oz. chicken, 4 oz. yam, 1 T. natural peanut butter
Meal 3-Same as 2
Meal 4-Same as 2
Meal 5-8 oz. eye of round, 25 g of whey, 1 T. flax oil, brocoli
Second session of cardio
Meal 6-Same as 5

As time went along I dropped my carbs down until the only carbs I had were pre and post training. My calories were 2800. I don't have the exact figures in front of me, but I believe my protein was 325 grams, carbs about 170 grams, and fat was 63 grams for training days.

For non training the calories were the same as was protein, but the carbs were 120 grams, and fat was 79 grams.

That's the basic plan brothas! Enjoy! Keep in mind that diets have to be tailored to the individual. Just because this worked for me doesn't mean it will work for you. That's my disclaimer...

Pretty solid Bro, good cutter, very similar to my diet...

Well when I'm actually following it at least...
