yeah..down to around 70 grams of carbs a day..major workouts, 2 exercises pr muslce group, 3 sets 15-20 reps...burn all the glykogen i can, dont know if thi will work for me...but i'll give it a shot..its my last week of dieting down now.

4 days of carb depleting, then comes 4 glorious days of carb loading, no training..

i sure could need some cheering on these four days..im gonna be damn hungry...

I don't think 70 grams of carbs a day is considered "carb-depleting".

Seeing as your brain needs about 50 grams of carbs to function i mean..

Oh I didn't mention.......my brain doesn't work when I'm depleting! I get so sick and irritable. All I want to eat after depleting all week is a fucking loaf of bread on Friday nights! The shit is insane! MrMuscle, check your e-mail.

Well, I am natural, and just by dropping down to about 50 grams complex carbs and another 30 grams fibrous got me into ketosis (trace on the ol' ketostix) after about two days.
Plan on taking this one deeper into ketosis as the show is next Sat.

Your brain will switch to ketones for fuel.

I've been sub 30 grams of carbohydrate for 10 days now and I am still not in ketosis. Why? Because I eat to much damn protein and it converts to glucose which keeps me from peeing the little Ks out.

If you really want ketosis you have to cut your protein down to below 200 grams a day and rely on fat for all the rest of your calories.

Then again, some people have an easier time going ketogenic than others.

Also, if you aren't already, I highly recommend an EC stack while running carb-free, otherwise you will be really fucking tired.

(PS I'm an AS virgin, too)

Need More fat bro, or you will die. Meals 2, 3, 5, & 7 are fatless. I'm using 100grams of fat for my energy. It's working fukin great to. If you use regular food other then all the powder you will just shed that shit into LAND O RIPPAGE. of course this is just my $.02. Peace in the middle east bruh

Shit! I'm playin' the violin now for you my brothas - try doing that crap while taking care of FOUR KIDS!!!! and the laundry, and do thier homework with them, and clean the house, and listen to how your hubby's day went, and watch YOUR WHOLE EVER-LOVING FAMILY EAT LOTS OF WONDERFULLY SWEET LITTLE POWDERED DONUTS AND RING DINGS AND ICE CREAM WHILE THEY ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW BAD YOU SMELL!!! (Did I mention that in addition to all of this you've got to bake cupcakes and birthday cakes and stuff little plastic easter eggs with tons of little sweet, sugary treats?!) Oh yes, and you're supposed to want to have sex!

Yea, I feel bad for you brothas!!!!

Don't worry, when your pain has ended - mine will commence - I'm doin' a competition on Sep 30. So if you all thought I was nasty BEFORE .....
