Intro
The very first time I set foot in a gym I was 15 w/ $100 for a 3 month membership. All I knew was that somehow I had to drop a ton of fat. Weighting in at a solid 220lb of pure fat I was determined to do whatever it took to slim down. After four months of hard work and dedication I was 165lb and a completely different person. No more cardio now the fun begun. I started focusing in gaining muscle and it was not an issue. My diet was clean and my routine varied from time to time. In about a year and a half I managed to bulk into 190lb. My progress improved weekly and was just beginning. All until I injured my self & with multiple surgeries I was out for awhile.

With over two years of inactivity I fell into the old cycle of no exercise and horrible eating habits. Having the unpleasure of being injured for such a long time certainly put a hurting in my motivation. It has taken me two years of adding layers of fat to realise It's time to for a change. It will take major changes in both my diet and exercise habits to achieve my new transformation.
Its time to get back to the scene and get f*cking psycho again. Been working out my diet, routine, and stack so watchout for my follow up pictures. Its a long and hard road ahead but thats the best part.

Welcome To IM ,

Very interesting. Where are pasting all this from?

simbh · 02-14-2005, 09:12 AM

Good luck bro ... I know what you're going throught , went throught out the same thing. I was fat , then lost the weight , then gained some muscle mass then gained fat after injuring myself. And now , I've been back on track for about 6 months . If I can do it twice , I'm sure you can . Good luck !

On a side note , your diet seems A OK !

Yunier · 02-14-2005, 11:46 AM

gwcaton , I wrote all of that & most came from my previous posts here. The diet outline is from back when I was lifting hardcore and cutting.

simbh, thats exactly what happened to me man. After two injuries I just lost motivation and did not care much for my health. I am just fed up with the way I have turned and its what I promised myself not to do.

Oh yes, any comment regarding nutrition, supplements, routine, or cardio please post.

Yunier · 02-14-2005, 11:52 AM

Thanks

All I need is to go get the gym membership straight. Just want to wait for this week job interview and go from there. Really can't wait to get back to lifting once again.

Yunier · 02-15-2005, 02:46 PM

This is my second day of the Anabolic diet. Been trying to setup my workout plan to perfect so should be posting a complete list. I am also re-working my supplement stack. Considering not taking CLA at such high amounts of 13g daily. Instead will take Vendetta w/ ICE and Di-Arginine Malate but its not yet final.

Either way I have to setup my timing for supplements according to my diet. I will keep everything here and keep an eye out because, like I said before, everything I will be doing is by the numbers. No room for bullshit. Everything counts.

Quote:

1. Meal 1 (7:00 am) - - 5 whole eggs (omelet) - - 500 calories
2. Meal 2(11:00 am) - - Chicken Breast - - 750 calories
Hunt's Snack Pack - Suger free - 2 net carbs - 10 calories
3. Meal 3(3:00 pm) - - Sausages - - 700 calories
Hunt's Snack Pack - Suger free - 2 net carbs - 10 calories
4. Meal42(6:30 pm) - - Chicken Breast - - 750 calories

Since I am unable to edit my other posts I am going to have to repost info that I was planning to edit.

So here is my routine.

Yunier · 02-17-2005, 12:28 PM

Day Four of the Anabolic diet. I certainly feel different which is a result of the metabolic shift. Much fuller after each meal compared to last week's high carb meals. Don't feel as bloated at the end of the day, unlike last week. I want to also note that I will not be taking ALL of those supplements at once. I will adding and taking off as the weeks/months go by.

May I ask why you would fry your eggs ? That would be an easy way to cut some fat in your diet ... Id also would maybe take 2-3 full eggs with 3 whites eggs. They yellow in eggs has a decent amount of fat .

I'd also add maybe a bowl of oatmeal to get some calories in there that you would be loosing by dropping a few of those full eggs as well as the oil with your fried eggs . Oats would be a good source of clean carbs ...

Well sim thats a good point.

I only add a serving or two of oil/butter in a pan and fry 'em eggs. I do it because fat is not an issue with the Anabolic diet. Its high fat during the week and should be intaking no more then 30 grams of carbs. In my carb up days (weekends) I will keep my fats low and increase my carbs. After being in the "Anabolic Diet" for three weeks I might experiment increasing my carbs slighty up-to 100 grams. So currently I am intaking 0-10 carbs daily and don't feel weak at all but I am not performing cardio yet. So if my energy level is still high when I perform cardio and lift with 0-10 carbs daily I am staying there. But like everything else its going to be trail and error. Perhaps once I drop my daily calorie intake to 2000-2500 daily I might have to increase my carb intake to 60-100 grams.

I hope I made sense.

Interresting , I'll keep watching this as I am unfamiliar with this kind of diet . But this seems strongly familiar with atkins diet ? Correct me if I'm wrong . And isn't atkin good to burn down the fat , but a very poor diet to keep it off on the long term ?

Yeah kinda like Atkins. Check out here: Anabolic Diet/Metabolic Diet and checkout Dr. Mauro Di Pasquale at BB.

I've done the traditional low fat diet and always felt very weak. Don't get me wrong, I did lose plenty of fat and did it in about 4 months. During a few cutting cycles I tried the Anabolic diet and saw results and was able to lift without feeling weak or losing much strength. By trial and error I have come to learn how my body acts to different diets.

You will lose fat with nearly any diet as long as you burn more then you intake. Long term is all a matter of controlling yourself, as you can see in my recent pics, I lost controll because of personal problems.

Check your PM.

Ya I saw your pm ... like I said I said , I'll be following this because I am curious to see what results you will have . You seemed to have had good results in the past though . But that is my main concern about diets with low carbs is that people tend to do good for a period of time and then the cravins come back and they gain the weight back . Anyways , enough of this . I'll let you do your thing , and the best of luck to you ... I trully hopes this works for you and I said it before and I'll say it again , I'll check this out regularly.

Day Five. Its been a very hard five days and all I've been thinking about during bedtime is CARBS CARBS. But Ive overcome all that graving and stayed clean and off carbs. I am ketosis and that for sure because I feel it. But I will have to buy some Ketostix to calculate how many days exactly it takes me to enter this stage...The hardest stage is almost completed and its all down hill from here.

Next in the agenda:
1. Gym Membership: Wanted to get it done today, 2/18, but job interview was changed till monday. So according to how that goes I will have a secured my membership.
2. New job: I sent my resume to several offices but no email or phone calls yet.

Regardless of no gym membership by Monday I am lowering my calories to 2000-2250. I will not take any supplements until I go to the gym and start doing my thing. I will only be taking: Whey Protein, Biotin, Fish Oil, and ICE (BCAA). ALA will be used with my carb up days. Once I begin dropping the fat I will add SESATHIN to the list with ALC. Or I might not add SESATHIN and do Green Tea Extract instead. Still debatable. Once I hit 185-190 I will start taking ZMA drop the green tea and add the Sesathin with the CEE and adjust cardio accordingly. I will keep a tight log of each supplement and monitor them closely.

Its carb up day. I had several fruits and some rice along with chicken breast. But did not measure so I aint got a clue how many calories I've consumed. Its okay this week. But since next week I am lowring my intake even further my weekend diet has to stay clean and low in calories.

Also found this VERY interesting read.

The time course of the human growth hormone response to a 6 s and a 30 s cycle ergometer sprint.

Stokes KA, Nevill ME, Hall GM, Lakomy HK.

Department of Physical Education, Sports Science and Recreation Management, Loughborough University, UK.

Exercise is a potent stimulus for the release of human growth hormone (hGH), but the time course of the hGH response to sprint exercise has not been studied. The aim of the present study was to determine the time course of the hGH response to a 6 s and a 30 s maximal sprint on a cycle ergometer. Nine males completed two trials, on one occasion performing a single 6 s sprint and on another a single 30 s sprint. They then rested on a couch for 4 h while blood samples were obtained. Three of the participants completed a further control trial involving no exercise. Metabolic responses were greater after the 30 s sprint than after the 6 s sprint. The highest measured mean serum hGH concentrations after the 30 s sprint were more than 450% greater than after the 6 s sprint (18.5 +/- 3.1 vs 4.0 +/- 1.5 microg l(-1), P < 0.05). Serum hGH also remained elevated for 90-120 min after the 30 s sprint compared with approximately 60 min after the 6 s sprint. There was a large inter-individual variation in the hGH response to the 30 s sprint. In the control trial, serum hGH concentrations were not elevated above baseline at any time. It would appear that the duration of a bout of maximal sprint exercise determines the magnitude of the hGH response, although the mechanism for this is still unclear.

Notes
This is an overview of my thoughts for the week and next week.

- Need to adjust sleeping patterns back to normal.
- Going to get a new gym membership on Monday.
- Starting HST, CARDIO, and supplements on 2/21/05.
- Lowering Anabolic Diet's calorie intake to 2250 including weekends no excuses.
- Need to outline a weekend diet. I have been way out of control on weekends.
- Finally got to shave my body. I will have to keep hair free by saving atleast once a week. After I have a job secured will be going to start tanning.
- Made a bet to self: If I hit 175-180lbs on or before July I will buy myself an iPod mini. I was going to just buy one but why not make it a gift for my hardwork. This way I stay motivated and focused in the finish line. Its easy, 50Lbs to lose and 5 months to do it. Currently I am unsure of my bodyfat so I am simply going by bodyweight. However, I will update this little bet with myself and go by bodyfat once I get my bf % done.
- Will have to just forget about my ego and getting stronger at the moment. I have to get mentally ready for low poundage during this cut. Cutting is my goal and its the first step to the ultimate goal, getting fucking HUGE!. If I am going to cut, I am going to cut and thats the end. I am not expecting to gain any strengh but rather lose bodyfat and get lean. Its only five months so there is no time for slacking off.
