How I get/Stay Lean

[NJRipped]

The last "Best Abs" prize was a 60" LCD TV but I had to pay for it myself. lol You should take a look at that thread though - a bunch of people said they were "in" but then came the excuses.

If you would like to start a contest, the only thing I would ask is that we submit non-professional, verified pics (the bros have been know to submit old and/or other peoples pics. Since I stay lean year 'round, any date would work for me.

I used to know the feeling but have in been shape for so long now. As long as the legs dont hurt too bad you will be fine. I thought I was hot shit, getting 1100 cals in one hour, or 400 in 20mins.

Is their a prize for best abs in elite fitness?

AS for me juicing, I did 2 amps, and 2 weeks of dbol, started to bloat get pimpled and said screw this.

This is a great thread. I was curious if ncmil is doing a weekly refeed or carbload. I know that on a diet like his it would be benficial to gylcogenate the muscles.

In addition, he probably doesn't need to worry about leptin levels but for those that are taking notes...

 

[ncmil]

Hmm, I hardly ever refeed, I really think my body works well with fats, and I try to use healthy fats, lots of olive oil in my shakes, I guess having a big packet of candy post workout is like cheating and gives me the carbs my body needs to drive protein into muscle, when u are low bodyfat you dont need to be too full

why do you break up cardio and lifting.

 

[ncmil]

I dunno, If I spend 30-40mins in the gym, then I need to do 30-60 mins of cardio breaking them up is more of a timing issue, I work hard or a living, so weights in the am, pm cardio is better for my schedule, plus I really need to eat a nice meal after lifting,

thanks this thread has been very motivating

ncmil, you eat chocolate with whey protein for post workout meal.. isnt fat (from chocolate) slows down the process of absorbing the whey protein?

 

[ncmil]

Chocolate protein powder not chocolate, my post workout meal is a stick of sweet tarts, bottle caps, or some high sugar dextrose candy with 2 scoops of whey.

When Ihave my other shakes its usally 2-3 scoops and some olive oil

 

[ASU]

what is a bottle of caps?

so you try to stick with carbs high in sugar for post workout? no oats, yams etc..???

would a banana with Fat free milk and whey protein = the sweet tarts?

You dont eat breakfast before workingout?

 

[ncmil]

Well bottle caps and sweet tarts are just high sugar candys I like, I try to stick to fast burning carbs because most of the day I run on Olive Oil, flax Oil, and fat from the beef and chicken I eat. SO i need the carbs to be in and out quick, so a bananna smoothie might work.

Usally I dont, or I have a scoop of whey, im not hungry right when I get up, i mean literelly I get out of bed at like 5:45-6am, and im on the road in 10mins, as soon as I can wakeup, get dressed, pee, and let my dogs out I dip.
