Crum Diet

[The_Eviscerator]

I have been following the guidelines for the Crum Diet and I am very happy with it. I must say that I cheated on two meals this weekend, but when you are on a date you don't want to be a dick.

I have been following a 50% protein/ 15% carbs/35% fat on work out days and 50% p/10% c/ 40% fat on non work-out cardio days.

After 2 weeks I am holding steady at 215, but BF% looks lower. I am making sure to eat around 3200-3600 calories a day, which is a bitch when it is all protein, green beans, broccoli and flax.

So far, so good. The real trick is eating every 2-2.5 hours. If you keep that pace going the shit works and you will not lose muscle mass.

I'll be finished bulking in 2 weeks and I was thinking about going on the crum diet, so I have a couple questions that I hope you don't mind me asking.

First, I thought one should be in a calorie defecit if weight loss (fat obviously) is the goal? As in the calories = 12 x BW formula?

Are you experiencing any energy lapses during the day or workouts?

How much whey scoops are you taking in on the average day?

How much cardio are you doing?

Sorry for all the questions!

I am doing cardio a minimum of 4 days a week, max of 6.

I take about 6 scoops of whey and 5 or 6 tablespoons of flax.

I am not really doing the diet in a calorie deficit yet. I am consuming about 3300 to 3700 calories a day. About 450 grams are protein and 150 grams from fats. I am trying to keep carbs to less than 150 grams per day on work-out days.

Work-outs have been phenomenal. My cardio is a little down, but I usually do it after a work-out so my glycogen stores are definitely depleated by the time I get to it.
