Meal 9-12 ... dang 12 meals???
Confirm, are you going to run Body Opus or did you write this up for someone else to follow?

Can you post results?

He will do a "test run" starting august. I will be using this as my next contest diet and so will he. I will probably try it this winter. I will make sure results are posted.

I read the book and I find it amazing!!!! I very much recommend it!!!

Wait, is that 5 days with NO carbs? Best of luck with it ... both of you

Makavelli did make a suggestion for those ever considering this ... "I woudn't do a 48 hour load unless you're getting ready for a show and using slin. Otherwise stick to 24-36 hour loads."

Just some good info for those considering this ...

 

[Aries13]

The Bodyopus book is extremely DETAILED .... so every minute, hour counts!!! It has to be followed exactly.. but I have no idea how I will do with 5 days of no carbs. It will put me into Ketosis... And it says the second day is the harderst. After that, NO Problems.

I would never run this diet for longer than 12 weeks.... Can you imagine with all the saturated fat??... My professor would KILL me if he found out abut this.

^ Exactly my thoughts.. lol

You are your own best test subject... but you never know if you don't try it right? How can you accurately comment on it without going through it first hand? I support your decision ... & look forward to you posting your results... are you going to run a full 12 weeks? Is that the plan?

Well I have to do a formula and figure out how much time I will need to run it. After I get my bf% and then see where I wanna be (12% ), the formula tells me how long I have to run it.

Im ALWAYS up for a challenge. I did a lot last April so the way I see it is : "BRING IT ON". It should be fun.... When its time, a detailed contest BODYOPUS log will follow

**I will most likely run it 12 weeks. Depends on where Im at after winter. I plan on doing a small clean bulk... and I think that will put me at the cutting stage around January for the April contest. ...~12 weeks.

Now that I know a little bit about how my body responds to diet and training, I cant wait to see it this time around!!!

Believe it or not your cholesterol will improve with this diet. High carb diets cause cholesterol levels to rise, not high fat. I will never forget when I was doing this diet years ago. I did it for 9 months straight! I went to the doc and she was raving about my blood profile being so great. She made a comment that "I must not know what dietary fat is...". I responded "actually my diet is composed of 75% fat...". She looked dumbfounded...

I love... absolutely LOVE that look on a MDs face.. I see it often

Mak ... how was your strength, muscle appearance & brain function on this diet?

As much as people shun carbs, others swear by them ... even on a carb rotation, I can feel my head get fuzzy, inability to think at work (NOT a good thing), muscles FLAT, and minor dips is strength (not only from a carb rotation, but if I low carb it for a few days etc) ...

Eventually I may try a CKD to TRY it & offer comment, but I'm interested in your thoughts... I see women all to often look for a quick fix, try this & fail ... do you find that commen with men as well?

So you eat no veggies with this diet???

That's a sure way to block you up, well me anyway.
