how fast did you see results while on CKD?

[Drewb]

Cool thanks for your response sounds like we have similar goals. So what kind of wieght loss did you see in your 3 months on CKD?

I dropped about a net 14lb but also had a visable gain in muscle mass... Bf got down to around 13%-14% but I'm back up a little (water) since switching....

I am really starting to think the training has alot more to do wih it than most people on here think in terms of losing fat. I am going to try a more Gym Jones type training approach next week. Starting on the morning of my carb up. some yoga movements mixed with kickboxing, speed rope, HIIT training, core, ad plyometrics. I just need a change from the same old routine. I want more out of workouts these days than just standing in front of a mirror staring at my bicep contract. A few guys I know that are doing crossfit and similar type of training are shredded and have a $hit load of endurance. Since i am not looking to be a bodybuilder just be in great shape and athletically fit i think this is going to be a fun transition!

Just a heads up for anyone looking to blast calories try plyometrics. I did a plyo workout on Sunday and can barely walk today. It gets you heat rate jacked and works more on strength and agility. I have deep muscle soreness unlike anything I have ever feels (in a goodway of course). Just another thing I might add it is beomcing much eaiser to get back into ketosis after my carb ups. I dont know if its the up in cardi im doing on empty stomach in A.m or if my body has adjusted to my diet. i can actually start to feel when im in ketosis now! I weighed in today @ 201 lbs and am dying to get under 200 which i havent been since i was 21! My goal weight is 180 lbs so I have alot of work to do!

After your body fully adjusts to ketosis, (for me, it was 3 or so weekly cycles) You actually learn to handle the mental and physical aspects of ketosis. I LOVE the CKD.

Sonicwaste: I am wondering what the difference is between a normal CKD and lyles version?

Lyles version is based on some principles of the CKD but is not entirely a CKD.

It also specs out a rigorous training routine. It's literally the hardest shit I've ever had to do. Each workout is about 2 hours and cardio on top of that. For instance here is my training/eating schedule;

Day 1-2: Full Body Workout each day- Roughly 6 sets of 15 per body part quads, calves, hams, chest, back. 3-4 sets of 15 for bi's, shoulders, triceps, abs, traps. 45 minutes cardio.

Diet 50% Maintenance - Bodyweight in protein, 60-75g carbs, rest is fats

Day 3: AM Cardio, same diet as day 1-2

Day 4: AM Cardio, 75% of same diet as day 1-3 in the morning/afternoon. Night Workout consisting of 3 sets of 12 per bodypart full body - Begin Carbload

day 5: Carbload - No training 1-1.5x bodyweight in protein, 50g fat, for me: 1200-1350 carbs or so.

day 6: Maintenance - 20% 200g carbs, bodyweight in protein, fats make up rest. Heavy Full body workout 3 sets of 3-6 per body part

day 7: Maintenance- 30% 125g carbs during the day, bodyweight in protein, fats make up rest. Evening cardio..

Day 8 repeat

That's my basic program as of right now.

Awesome. Suprised the carb load is in the middle of the week. Any reason for that? And im sure you were low bf% to begin with, but what differences have you seen?

2 hour workout you are a beat sonicwaste. Then again I believe you are a bodybuilder. Well just a heads up this diet is great. After a while you really do get a handle on the ckd and stop the cravings for carbs. I have recently been adding some veggies sch as broccoli and lots of romaine lettuce and still maintina ketosis while gettinf full. just an update I am down to 201lbs I am stronger in strength and endurance and have gone down 2 sizes in my pants. Sporting a 34" pair of jeans for the 2st time in years. I also want to note I am switching my workout routine every 4 weeks and am now doing a more conditioning type of workout. Mostley bodyweiht dips, pushups, pullups, bodywieght squats, lunges etc. I mix things up alot and combine it with HIIT training. I am realy feeling this workout take it's toll
as fat is just feling off like butter. For anyone interested in this diet I highly recommend it! The funny thing is the hardest part i believe is the physioligical side, not being able to have a pizza with your boys, once youget over that and realize your making an invesment in yourself it won't matter! Cheers!

FYI Ruby Tuesdays Burger and fries may hinder results on CKD! Man do i feel like crap I broke down after 6 weeks
and ordered a hamburger wuth cheese ate the whole thing with fries and desert. At the end i felt like a bloated marshmellow.
Im still feeling kinda bloated from that meal but ohh well i guess in a way I needed it. I amback on ym CKD and may even do 10 days no carbs
for some extra fat buring.

FYI after 3 months on a CDK I had my cholesterol levels tested. They were though the roof, I’m off now and will get retested in a month or 2.

Where did you get your calories mainly? Red meat?
