Fellow BB & Fitness Enthusiasts,
Who Is This Kid?
I'm 25, 6' 3", and sit at my desk job from 7:00 am - 5:00 pm. The 15 minute walk between my bus and my office is the only "physical activity" I have on weekdays, aside from weight lifting. I am in the gym 6-7 days of the week for roughly 90 minutes (30 minutes of that is cardio)
What's The Point?
I've been on Keto for about 3 weeks (loving it so far) but recently realized some changes I needed to make in order for my Keto-ing to be more effective. I've decided to make this log in order to help track my progress, motivate myself, and let the rest of the world judge if this is an effective meal plan.
Do You Even Lift Brah?
Although my goals are more performance based - run fast, jump high - I figured I'd post my lifts anyways. Overall, I want to reach 8% bf while maintaining as much muscle as I can.
Weight: 196.0 w/ 12% BF (estimated)
Bench Press: 200 lbs (5x5)
Deadlifts: 295 lbs (5x5)
Pendlay Rows: 225 lbs (5x3)
Back Squats: 185 (5x5)
Dumbell Shoulder Press: 55 lbs (5x5)
Nom Nom Nom
BMR is ~2000 and TDEE is ~2800 (According to http://iifym.com/tdee-calculator/)
I am aiming to hit 1960 cals
Carbs: 25g / Fat: 152g / Protein 123

Feeling: Not a great workout, barely decent.
Got to the gym late and my shoulder started aching at the end of my bench press. I usually do Incline Dumbbells with heavier weights but didn't want to risk my shoulder so decided to change up the grip and lower the weights. Didn't even hit my triceps because gym was closing by the time I got done with shoulders. Don't feel sore right now.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories

Feeling: Good session of cardio.
Walking did little to increase heart rate but shirt was drenched after the class. I felt a little bit of hungry before my class but preferred to work out on an empty stomach. Wasn't hungry even though calories were much lower than intended, maybe Halloween took my mind off of it.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories

Feeling: Solid workout although not much heavy lifting.
The squats were difficult, had to struggle on the 3rd rep for the last couple sets. The Leg Press was easier than I expected but it might be due to a slightly different piece of equipment (was at a different gym). I had a pre-work out drink that kept me focused and motivated but I walked out not feeling sore and upset I didn't do lunges. I also did a LOT of walking for Halloween. For food, had a lot more protein and carbs than I had intended but I was really hungry at night and that's all that was available.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories

Feeling: Great workout but wanted to do more biceps. Still love Pull days.
The workout itself was great but the best part was all the fat bombs I ate. It was enough to get me motivated to have a good workout. Might have to decrease the weight to 215 on the Pendlay rows because I think my form is getting sloppy. I'm happy I got to 4 plates on the T-bar rows but I think I can add another 5-10 lbs without compromising form or count.Last edited by danfleysher; 11-03-2015 at 05:00 AM.

Did some light jump roping and handstand holds, 5 minute tops together
Feeling: Happy to have done shoulders earlier. Good workout but still not hitting triceps enough.
The Bench Press was easier, didn't struggle so much on the last reps but did need a spot on my 5th set. Shoulder press wasn't heavy but didn't want to jump to 70s since I've been doing 60's prior. Definitely happy to be doing Shoulders early in the workout. Worked my shoulders hard and doing push ups was difficult in the Superset.
*Ate many because I was trying a different recipe and experimenting
Note: Currently feel bloated and a little sick from over eating. Skipping breakfast and probably going to push back lunch unless things change. Will eat lighter today.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories

If you're new to coconut oil, for quite afew people it needs to be introduced slowly otherwise can lead to nausea, headaches etc (but i could be wrong as i'm not sure how much fat is in the keto coconut truffles).
Looks like you're doing great and all the best with achieving your goals=================

Cardio: 45 Minute Stationary Bike (Medium-Low Intensity) @ 110 hr
According to the respective machines, I burned ~ 600 calories but I think the true number was closer to 350-400.
Feeling: I don't like doing cardio but it wasn't too bad. The constant high intensity of the first run had me winded. I got on the bike and watched some TV so the time went by pretty quick. Although I apparently ate well below my TDEE, I did not feel hungry, possibly some carryover from yesterdays overeating.

I got 205 on my first set of 3 but felt I was compromising form (It was looking more like a Good Morning). I got some tips on improving my squat jumps so although I was only doing a few jumps, I was in a squat position for plenty of time, enough to get me sweating haha.Last edited by danfleysher; 11-06-2015 at 06:13 AM.

Feeling: Happy with Pull-Ups, Upset over Deadlifts.
Switching to include BW exercises as my first exercise so I can get to 20 pull-ups in one shot (currently around 8-10). I was feeling sick in my gut during my deadlifts and believe it was the combination of doing abs the day before and pull-ups prior. Didn't want to push it and puke everywhere so cut it short. I was content with my other lifts, felt my pendlay rows weakening in the last rep of my 4th and 5th set but to be expected. Still had tons of energy so went running at the end, it was a beautiful day.Last edited by danfleysher; 11-08-2015 at 04:50 AM.

Feeling: Ate a lot in the morning but I was testing proportions because I haven't made breakfast in a while (typically buy it) I wanted to get exact amounts but I think it was too much. My lower back was definitely feeling the workout which is good, hoping that it wasn't from improper form. Will post a video to BB later to get it critqued.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories

Feeling: I had plenty of time to kill but didnt want to do anything too intense because hamstrings felt sore (possibly from deadlifts). Kept in light before my actual exercise. I don't think I burned anything significant in the cardio but it was more than my average Wednesday.
UPDATE: I bumped my daily calories too 2,300 on the account of weight loss being too rapid for my liking. I weighed in at 188 - Down ~9lbs 2 weeks prior.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories

No data I had a typical breakfast but don't have anything else in MFP and can't remember for the life of me. I remember having a good workout with some good results from the Bench Press and Shoulder Press, didn't workout too hard that day though.

Feeling: Wanted to go hard since I knew I was going to be eating a lot. Lifting wasn't too heavy because I was a little out of energy from the cardio but I did get my lifts in. Fell short of my best but whatever. On the food side, I ate a lot because I was experimenting with cooking the whole day. Turned out to be delicious, will make again and post pictures.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories

Feeling: One of those days where I was psyched for the gym. Got in there and sweat balls on the elliptical. After 5 minutes I had a consistent heart rate of 160, as high as 165+ at times. Wrestled through my lifts but I thought they were good. Increased the weight on my T-bar rows and lowered the rest time on my Pendlay so I think it'd match up with 225 @ 2:00 or 2:30 rest. Didn't get to do as much as I wanted and didn't hit my lower back.dy/dx (Weight Loss) = Calories
