Pics of W6's client contest ready

Her back limits any further depth beyond parallel, esp on a smith machine.

The reason we use the smith machine is because I can load her legs more than with a bar. She can squat 225 x 8 with the bar vs 385 x 8 on the smith, same depth. What I found was that her legs and glutes grew better using the smith probably because she can handle more weight. At some point we may go back to the bar. With enough work I know I can get her squats up, its a form/balance issue. Currently the goal is to get her legs up as quickly as possible so I went back to the smith.

I use what works best for the individual. Some of my clients use the bar.

AWESOME! I can't believe she did not use any type of thermos, clen, T3! and only 30-40min of cardio?????? Maybe I'll cut my cardio and look that good!
Can you tell me the theory behind the 3high carb days/2lo? I've heard going 2-3days of low/and 1 high. This might be something I'd like to try. How is this different?
What are the cues of when you cut/add fat and carbs?(you mentioned adding carbs at the RIGHT time?)
I really can't believe that body was built with cherry pie filling!

how much meth was she doing?

 

[wilson6]

She can't handle EPH or caffeine. Meth........LOL

She did use one of those non-EPH thermo's, but I think those are a waste of money. Others that have tried them said they did nothing.

Excellent work wilson6, excellent

So what is the theory of going 3 days of high carbs and 2 days low?

 

[wilson6]

That seems to work about the best. More than 2 days of low carbs and I find clients going flat and having problems lifting heavy. The other way to do this is to schedule your carb days around the heavy lifting days. On light days or cardio only days, keep the carbs low (40-60 g). Sometimes a 2 on, 2 off works as well. Also depends on how you define high carbs, but usually about 130 - 150 g for women, unless you are working a very labor intensive job.

The one client I worked with had to cut 1000 calories a day out when she went from a physically demanding job to a desk job and had to cut back carbs as well.

Email me and I'll send you a table attachment that one of my clients used a couple of years ago preparing for a show. It is based on a 5 day a week workout program, each bodypart once per week, heavy everyother.

There is considerable variation from person to person. Also depends on lifting intensity, cardio, AAS, thermogenics, and most importantly, genetics. That's why it still comes down to what works for you.

I gauge when to add carbs based on looks and performance. You cannot lift heavy without muscle glycogen and blood glucose. I don't care how much fat is in the diet, fat cannot be used for high intensity exercise and cannot be turned into glucose per se, and only so much protein can be turned into glucose. If you can't lift heavy up until 2 weeks out from the show, you're going to lose more muscle than you would otherwise from dieting alone.

The clients I work with have full-time jobs. They have to be sharp at work. Running around in a bitchy ketogenic daze is not an option, nor do I think it is necessary.

There are those that choose to suffer and there are those that see the light, but it seems that most still choose to suffer.

Sorry WarLobo, Wilson6 is MY long lost brother, not yours. He pulls me up when I give dodgy advice, and he offers very solid advice to others. On top of that he recognizes the importance of functioning well in all aspects of life, and coaches his clients accordingly. All I need now from my BRO is for him to relocate down to my peaceful neck of the woods! Dreams are free....

W6, could you send me the attachment table too? I tried to find your e-mail on your profile but it says you don't want any private e-mails and you don't have the pm facility.

Thanks.
