....as you might have noticed.....work has become insane and Im just not online as much.


All of y'all have made me proud and most of y'all are ready to test the waters with your own exercise and diet selections.


Lets use this thread as a question/answer dealio.


If you have any questions about your diet/cardio/training etc...post them here......the questions/info can benefit anyone who might be lurking about

OOoo Ooo me!! *raises hand*

Of 4 am cardio sessions.. is it better to do 3 HIIT and one steady state? For some variety? Or is 4 HIIT better? (In terms of fat-loss)

I'm not Shadow, but my answer would be 3 HIIT and 1 steady-state, so you give your body a variety, I would also change up the order every week, and do the HIIT at different intensities. But that's just my opinion.

ALWAYS have variety in your cardio and weight sessions.


3 and one is what I personally recommend.


REMEMBER:


EVERYTHING works....but NOTHING works for long

Oh, we are going to be on are own. I checked the old post for your 5x5 and was unable to find anything re: post workout. My goal is to that and then move on to the program in your Sticky. Or can I go straight to that program?

Do you know what kind of supplements are good to take to boost my energy when I am on a low carb diet considering that ephedra is illegal in Australia?


Any ideas are very much appreciated.

When exactly do you need your energy boost. And how long are you doing this low carb diet? And how low is low? Oh and are you carbing up at least once a week?

My ratio at the moment is 56.8% Protein, 28.8% Carbs and 14.40% Fat and my total calories per day are 1100. When I was taking Hydroxycut I used to run every morning from 5 for about 60 mins maybe longer on that diet for weeks and weeks (6 days out of 7) plus weights at night 3 to 4 times a week.

SInce ephedra has become illegal I only last up to 40 mins if cardio and after 4 days on that diet I become very tired. So now I am looking for a substitute for Hydroxycut without making changes to my diet and I don't know what to take..
