Thanks Raina. I just started this diet plan, Starting Sunday I will have a carb meal with my whey protein Post workout.. Still debating if I should be using Malt/dex or Complex carbs like Oats, Yams for post workout carb

I will be keeping my carbs low and at least 10 grams of fat per meal (except for post-workout meal)
 
I'm a malt/dex kind of girl but to each her own!

I carb up on leg day only because I'm utterly worthless without doing so. How long have you been on this-- happy with your results?
 
I just started this yesturday.
I decided to start the post-workout carbs and increase my fat intake in other meals next sunday, since I binged alot the last 2 months :(

Never tried the malt/dex.. Im afraid the insulin spike is will not work for me
 
Do what you think is best for yourself! Plus a sweet potato cut up like fries and baked in a drizzle of olive oil and herbs sounds a lot more tasty than malt/dex. :)

You're not the only one who has binge times...especially around the holidays. It feels good to get back into a routine though doesn't it?

Thanks :)
You absolutly right!! Since I copied this workout routine from "Mens Muscle Magazine"
Should I switch the 6 sets of Decline into the Incline and only do 4 Incline?

I would do:

incline db press 4 sets
incline fyles 3 sets
cable cross overs 3 sets



8-10 reps with a TUT of 6 seconds per rep
 
pec dec and crossovers are basically the same movement - you get a better ROM with the crossovers and the ability to do a complete contraction
 
This used to be my old routine..very similar :)

Tuesdays (Chest/Triceps)

X3 DB Flat Bench Press
X3 DB Incline Press (Seated)
X3 DB Decline Flyes
X3 Cable Flyes (cross-overs)

X3 Close Grip BB Press
X3 BB Skull Crushers
X3 Reverse Grip Press down (Cable)
X3 Triceps over-head Extensions (Cable)

Thursdays (Back/Biceps/Cycling)

X3 Cable Pull downs
X3 Close Grip Cable Row OR Deadlifts
X3 1 Arm DB Row
X3 Iso-Lateral Row Machine

X2 BB Curls
X2 Cable Curls
X2 Hammer Curls
X2 Seated Incline Curls


Sunday (Shoulders/Cycling)

X3 DB Shoulder Press
X3 DB Lateral Raise
X3 DB Bent over Lateral Raise (seated)
X2 Reverse Pec-Dec (Machine)
X2 BB Upright Row
X2 Plate Front Raise
X3 DB Shrugs
 
Thanks Shadow :)
I will be switching the pec-dec to the cable flyes and instead of the hammer grip press to Incline flyes
 
The Shadow said:
Also - keepincline to 30-45 degrees...and 30 is better than 45
Im not sure to how many clicks on the seat to make it 30 degrees
I will ask around
Thanks again :qt:
 
its easy....



if perpendicular is 90 degress.....set it to half that then drop it one-two more notches

Do you think Im overtraining with this chest workout?
 
jenscats5 said:
I'm curious........why is this?

well......your "pecs" are going to be under vreast tissue.......


upper pecs are very visible......and give a GREAT line when developed and will halp create the illusion of higher cleavage as well

So, wouldn't building up the lower pec help "lift" the breast?

Keep a check on Calories as cycling typically burns very few cals......
 
The Shadow said:
if you are on a gym type bike it will tell you......

It doesnt tell me. Its a cycling bike with a class and an instructor, some people call it "spin class"
 
Ah.........How many calories does it burn?

Research has shown that an average 40-minute spinning workout will burn about 500 calories. The amount of calories burned by each individual will vary, depending on the intensity and duration of the workout.
 
Like you said... Depending on the intensity
Im going to start wearing my Heart Rate monitor again to keep track of my heart rate
 
Mondays and Wednesdays I spin on an empty stomach (just coffee with non dairy powderd milk and some stevia) I might try a sugar free energy drink next time

Thursdays, Sundays and (Tuesdays) just for now till school starts
I eat my first meal, weight train , then spin .. then have my shake and carbs
 
Oh! I forgot to post this :insane:

Meal 4

Right after spining? Doesnt that slow down the fat burning process after doing cardio? since our body still burns fat up to 30 minutes after cardio?

well......yes......post woshould be carbs and protein - No fat


then a bit later have a protein/fat meal
 
I thought this is only for post weight training not also post cardio

So, Post cardio day. I should have protein and carb meal (same as the post weight training day) ??

A shake is the best way togo after any form of workout or cardio imo.....

CHEAT MEAL
 
Well... you have practically no carbs in your diet... looks like 50ish? Your body is probably starving for them.

First idea: I would try adding in another 20 grams of carbs or so throughout the week and maybe your body won't be as famished by the end of the week. Don't worry - 20g of carbs isn't going to make or break your diet - as long as they're quality carbs.

Second idea: Might also be your mindset about "cheat day". If I go into a cheat day thinking - YES! CHEAT DAY! I CAN EAT WHATEVER I WANT! - I end up on the verge of puking by nighttime. Try eating as you would on a normal day, but just much on some extra snacks that you wouldn't normally have.

Third idea: Split up your "cheat day". Have a cheat meal relatively high in carbs mid-week and another on your typical cheat day. OR cycle your carbs, as Sassy has recommended to many people. Make every third or fourth day a *higher* carb day.

Case in point: You're binging like a fiend because your body is starved of carbs. You need to figure out a way that works for YOU to fix it. If you don't, chances are you won't make it all the way to your goal :worried: This is all about trial and error and learning how YOUR body works. Don't be afraid to experiment - it will benefit you in the long-run... I promise ;)
 
Thanks ashley :)
I think the reason why Im binging like crazy, because Im not seeing that I have a well planned (diet plan) to lose body fat
