5:45/Whey W/ 1% Milk

8:00/Chicken, Rice, Veggies

That's my diet, too many carbs?

My routine is:
Monday: Chest/Tri's/Abs
Tuesday: Legs/Calves
Wednesday: Abs
Thursday: Back/Bi's/Forearms
Friday: Shoulders/Abs/Calves
Sat and Sunday: OFF

I'm gonna start doing sprints 2x/week, should I do them on Wednesday and Sunday or when would be good? In the morning?

Where I live, it snows in the winter--no sprints--what should I do in the winter?

Do i need to eat more, less?

Thx

I say get rid of the rice and add more veges to make up.

Rice= insulin spike


As far as Winter Interval cardio - hmm how about doing 30seconds of fast and intense (jump high) jump rope with walking on a treadmill?

wanna keep the carbs around 100-150grams

Get rid of the rice at both spots?

All you should be eating on the low carb days is meat, veges (as much as you want- no potatoes ,fruits or beans) and raw or fresh nuts. Basicly your eating like a hunter gatherer. I do eat a bit of cereal in my first meal, but I make sure I have veges and meat in tehre too or else my blood sugar will crash.

On the refeed/carb/pigout days, eat whatever you want. This is when you eat your rice etc. I even eat chocolate

I know is gonna be tough initally, but you will get used to it. And nibble and chew everything. People who nibble and chew everything throughly , instead of gulping it down, digest the food better. Food = fuel, so its very important.

Well try it your way first, and then try it my way, and compare how you feel/results. All I can say is I have never felt better. The last time I felt this energetic was when I was 1 to 18 years old

And use your feel - if you start to get hunger pains all the time, and lose motivation its time to pigout, and then you'll feel ready to go back to the low carb cycle again. Read your body signs

I usually do a 3 day low carb to one day carb up. But as you get leaner switch to a 2 on 1 off. But the body is not a machine, so I will vary the cycles as I please, depending on what I'm doing and feeling like.

So like 2 days a week have a lot of carbs and the rest not much?

So on the carb up days I would eat more rice and that stuff?

On the low carb days, i'd just be eating fruits and veggies for my carbs?

 

[coolcolj]

Yes, except no fruits on the low carb days, too much sugar!!

Just veges and nuts. You can eat fruits on the carb up days.

On the carb up days you pretty much pig out.
