Log: Wendler 531 & Crossfit on Paleo CKD with Intermittent Fasting & Cleanse

[Andalite]

If you don't mind me asking, I'd like to know some more about IF. how many days for you fast for or rather: the way I understand it you fast for a particular time period within a day and then you have one day every so often to refeed. Am I correct?

Generally speaking, i fast until 1 or 2PM (all depending upon what my body is telling me) on 3 or more days per week.

Regardless of whether i fast or not, i'm staying low carb and paleo (in ketosis) Sun - Friday and then saturday i do a refeed.

Yeah, it's really high and kind of hard to get down sometimes. I'll try to find some good stuff on high dose fish oil and post it here. It's mainly an anti-inflammatory thing and not so much a "get shredded" thing

I try to stick with 5 pills at a time spread over 3 fatty meals. Even then it's tough to stomach it sometimes.

I'm lazy today, so i'll just post the Google Results

There is the weight loss and aesthetic stuff but for me its the anti-inflammatory and effects on serotonin.

Tuesday 12/1:

Woke up feeling tired and stressed. Not much sleep. I need to change this.

Wendler 531 Standing Press: 155 x 5, 165 x 5, 175 x 8 (previous rep PR @ 175 was 7)

Rested about 3 to 5 minutes. Then Crossfit:

Did 5 rounds for time of:

135lb push press x 4
85lb sumo deadlift high pull x 7
pushup x 9

Time: 6:35 (never done before so no previous time to compare against)

Aside from making me almost puke, this fried my shoulders. By the 4th round i had to start jerking. The 5th round was all jerks instead of push press.

Diet:

Meal 1: 16 ounces chicken in 1 chopped avocado with half jar of salsa

Meal 2: Caesar salad (no croutons) with 8 ounce salmon

Meal 3: Salad with 16 ounces cut sirloin w/ a roasted garlic vinaigrette dressing

Snack before bed: about 1/2 jar of almond butter (overdid it but my body was asking for the cals)

Also got in multivitamin, 6 grams psyllium husk, and 15 grams fish oil

i take quite a bit of fish oil too, usually like 6g a day but your taking 15g a day

It definitely seems like a big number, but relatively speaking 10 ounces of salmon would have about 15 grams of fat. So it's not really outrageous. It just seems that way when you are taking down 5 pills at a time.

I've been doing this for about 2 months now. One thing that has SIGNIFICANTLY changed since i started this was reduced carb cravings and appetite. On past refeed days i could eat and eat but now the experience is totally different. I fill up quickly and feel satiated longer.

This of course is not ideal for you right now, but one day when you're an old fuck like me who gets fat looking at pasta ...

15g is only a lot when you're taking it in capsules. 1Tbsp of any liquid fat is 14g. I add a tbsp of macadamia nut or olive oil to my prepared meals. Most people take a couple of spoonfuls of flax oil. 6g is only 54 calories.
