I started doing Atkins back in October. Was 215lbs. I was down to 160 before I switched over to CKD about a month ago. Now I'm up to about 170-175 and have put on muslce, and lost more fat. While on Atkins I worked out, and did Karate. Never felt that my diet held me back. Though in the...

Personally, I love the jitters! Before I started working out, I was one of those fools who used to pop 6 or 7 25mg tabs and run around like a mad man for hours. Now you cant even get 25mg tabs here in Canada. I usually pop 3 or 4 of the 8mg tabs now, once when I wake up, once at lunch. I...

Man, that's waaaaay too much protein and not enough fat.

Never heard of a "bargain finder," but that's alright, I've never been a fan of used stuff. I like the "new" look, rather than the rusty, and old look. I never said I was going to be benching 20lbs. I usually do 25-35lbs in each hand when I do the bench press, and the higher of that is quite...

Your body has a 2500 calorie storage of glycogen (carbs). Thats about a day or two's worth. After that you'll switch to ketosis and start burning fat. But if you're not getting protein, it has to come from somewhere. I think you'd start losing muscle very quickly as well, but not for a few...

If you really want to tone up your legs, take up Karate. I started just 3 months ago and my legs have gone from flabby to the most defined part of my body. I'm quite impressed. Plus its a fun full body workout

You're ratios are screwed up there imho man... 50% protein is waaaaay too much. If you're doing a low carb diet, which it seems you are, fat is your fuel source, so you need much more fat and less protein in there.

I dont have a vehicle to drive to the nearest gym, nor the money to sign up there. I'd rather get my own equipment so I can train when I want (I like to do it early in the morning, long before the school gym opens). And obviously you havent seen my school gym, I swear that not a dollar could...

The gym at my school sucks so I finally gave in and started to buy my own weights. So far I've picked up the following: -1 dumb bell (very nice one, rubber grips and the thing that holds the weights on screws in). -1 bicep curl bar (of the same design as above) -1 "speed rope" for cardio -four...

Awesome post man. I'm gonna tack this up on my wall and look at it every time I get cravings for sugar. I've been on a low carb diet for months now and everyonce and a while I have massive binges where I consume uber amounts of carbs in one night. Maybe this will help me to avoid that :P Plus...
