Transition off Keto

[ananf72]

lol @ fitting your macros with beer. Pretty impressed at no noticeable fat gain. Are you still sore from training?

[DMurph51]

yes. DOMS like a mother****er.

[humzah]

Subbed

[njsquatmule]

essentially, yes.

problem? other than possibly turning orange?

I don't see any problems, I almost turned yellow as a child from eating to much sweet potatoes, the docs thought I had jaundice. Do you flavor the sweet potatoes?

[DustyChicago]

Murph, I'm on carb up and eatin sweet potatos, been on my mind cuz of your log for a week. thksman.

[DMurph51]

np dusty.

currently switched over from sweet taters to whole wheat pasta. 10 for $10 at stop and shop. like 240g carbs per box. and it's delicious.

my weekend macros frequently suck tho. if i come home after drinking and know im under, for some reason i just do not have the appetite to shovel down another 2 bowls of oatmeal. efffff........

I know the feeling ' It's like "oh, WHERE THE PROTEIN AT!?" but you're too full after carbing up to want more

[ananf72]

Yeah, sweet potato thing rubbed off on me too. Trying a loaded one with turkey bacon, LF cheese/butter and greek yogurt.
Look what you've done

[DMurph51]

the greek yogurt sounds good. and bacon makes everything better. except vodka.

Bacon in vodka marina sauce and pasta = win

[DMurph51]

its funny to me b/c me and my buddy were actually just yesterday talking about how awesome bacon is and how it makes everything better. then he said that he tried a bacon flavored vodka before, called bakon. then i thought to myself, 'wait, vodka is the only thing bacon doesnt make better, b/c when you drink enough of it, it still leaves a taste like ass in your mouth'.

coolstorybro/10

aforementioned 'bakon' vodka



this really bothers me though - the whole inability to hit my macros on the weekend, i've been under from friday - today. if i cant rep out 295 in the gym on monday, i am going to be the angriest mother ****er ever.

[DustyChicago]

Dude, Bloody Mary + Bacon strip = win. Sunday. Go Bears!

[ananf72]

Don't think I want to try that... especially with the mention of ass taste.
Are you taking creatine?

[DMurph51]

no way. i dont take steroids....


but yah i do 5g-7g creatine per day.

when today is done, i'll have eaten 2 boxes of pasta and 2 giant pieces of chicken over 500g cho and 240g pro

[ananf72]

Take steroids? lol whaaa? me either.

2 boxes of pasta??? Damn!!!! GJ!

[DMurph51]

dude, i mean, havent you heard? creatine IS a steroid!!!!1!!!eleven!!!1!!

macros were hit again today, over by a bit, but i didnt bother to track them that closely b/c of how proud i was of myself.

source of pride?

squatted over 300 for the first time ever. i repped 305 for 5, and again for 4 today. feelsgoodman.jpg.
and leg pressed 550 for 4, but that's some pussy shiot.

both were pr's.

and now it's time to study german.

off to florida for a quick thanksgiving bender on friday morning.

[ananf72]

Awesome job on the PRs! Damn good progress murph!
Not heard creatine was a steroid before but was heavily warned by a neighbor that it was the cause of my shoulders being 'too big' for my body and that my kidneys would explode.
Have a good trip to FL and food filled Friday

[DustyChicago]

squatted over 300 for the first time ever.

Das ist gut.

But where have your squats been, I was over 300 when I was 16... maybe even 15.

[DMurph51]

Das ist gut.

But where have your squats been, I was over 300 when I was 16... maybe even 15.

i started slightly before july, when i first began keto. and i had squatted like a retard for a while, no atg, just trying to hit the 90* bend. then i tweaked my back doing deadlifts, took 2 weeks off of the gym, and started back from the bottom, squatting the right way with good form.

glute doms feel interesting.

macros were hit again today.

gym cliffs-

realized that i gotta drop down the number of exercises im doing. ****'s killing me. wiped by the time i get to the 4th exercise

chest-

flat db bench
incline db bench
flys
incline flys
decline db bench

next week chest day in the gym will be incline db, flys, and idk. long story short, im srsly cutting down the exercises.


macros have been/will be reached today

[DMurph51]

macros were hit today and yesterday

flight to florida early tm morning. no gym for a week? oh well.

[DMurph51]

oh lawd. pizza today. oh lawd.

dont think i over ate, and if i did, it wasnt by much. psmf coming in the week following vacation.

even though i havent been tracking macros each day during this vacation, i know i've hit at least 200g pro each day.

[DMurph51]

psmf works well. and im officially done with the 4 weeks transition. next: Ultimate Diet 2.0 once winter break begins. until then: 3300 cals with a ratio of 55-60% cho / 30% pro / 10-15% fat

why are you following ratios made in the early 90s? 10-15% fat? isthisreallife

[DMurph51]

no, it's not actually.

i usually wind up at 50-60g fat per day. i originally shot for 10%, but that **** aint even attainable.

[DMurph51]

just gonna leave this here....

[ananf72]

just gonna leave this here....

What is it? The suspense is killing me.

[DMurph51]

oh, it disappeared.

trying again....

[ananf72]

lmfao that is the third time I have seen that pic today.
mirin murph... mirin those 90's macros.

[DMurph51]

same caption? or just the picture of ffry?

i generated that meme on my own while trying to troll one of the guys from another forum i frequent.

moving ahead with UD2.0 this coming sunday, assuming i have time this fri/sat to calc all my macro needs and set up my lifts. i've got a question pertaining to the depletion workout that i'll have to pm you later once i have time to re-read that section.

assuming i remembered the procedure correctly, this is what my UD2 will look like:

sun: deplete, mon: deplete, tues: rest, wed: tension, thurs: rest+carbs, friday: power+carbs, sat: rest+carbs

i have a feeling i goof'd somewhere in remembering how that schedule works out.

[ananf72]

It was the pic/gif with no caption.

That schedule works. It's pretty much the same except you bumped it a day back which he says is fine. The only day I would reread is the tension workout day. Try running a few cycles exactly as he states before making any changes (provided you choose to make any at all). You'll get the hang of it quickly...
