I like those high fiber wraps. Eat a couple cans of tuna, fish oil, and a wrap is a good meal. High protein, high fiber, low carb. But yes drink tons of water with sodium and creme of tartar all day long.Low carb is definitely a struggle I compensate by drinking a ton of water so I can keep my stomach full and not get that painful hunger feeling.
I've heard of alot of people doing the creme of tartar with water, I've never actually tried it myself, I remember years ago when I did a huge weight loss I ate nothing besides lean turkey and veggies, I definitely didn't know as much as I so now. I did however go from 240lbs down into 175lbs if u can picture that lol.I like those high fiber wraps. Eat a couple cans of tuna, fish oil, and a wrap is a good meal.

@man05 good training you really squeezed itPush day completed, I adjusted some weights to recover. I am noticing some movements on some days I feel strong the next day I feel weak, only been experiencing through the first two weeks of keto. Today I felt pretty good, diet better today, less cravings , the walnuts have really helped me with that.
Here are my meals for the day

Weights with some adjustments, focused more on form on the skull crushers to make sure the weights are almost touching my shoulder, I could really feel the movement more this way, same with the KB skull crushers, 26lbs using bells was tough, good thing I have 35 and 53;bs to work up to. Overall less exercises for chest feels like I actually worked out better. I will continue to push hard the next two weeks and see what's possible.

I’ve been on a two day split so my second push day is on Thursdays. I would really like to hear feedback on meso cycles and the pro and cons of going that direction for future cycles.push days are always on Mondays for most people
so I do mine a different day

I’m going ketoblast few weeks of cycle to get as lean as possible. I’m looking into a test/eq cycle for some lean mass, I’ll have a better idea tomorrow after my call.I haven't tried Keto before, I've eaten Keto style meals they are pretty tasty overall, I like carb cycling high medium and low seems it works best for me.
I think the training is what needs the most fixing. Volume way too high and not heavy enough. He needs to cut the volume in 1/3. Rest longer between sets and lift much heavier. Take more days off from lifting and his muscles will grow like never before. Less time in the gym and more time resting. 45 min in and out. Lift like Dorian.Get that diet fixed a bit
I see that frequently at the hospital… you were one sick puppyYes, 4 bags of ringers lactate.
You can just keep it going and have a mod changed the title of the thread to more reflect what your doing now.I stopped this log when I stopped primo keto 4-5 weeks back.
I’m on 150mg test and lifting throughout the week using a different format. I was not sure how to close this thread or really what steps to take after.
@man05 too bad as I was following it.I stopped this log when I stopped primo keto 4-5 weeks back.
