Lately i have been feeling really tired. I get 8hrs of sleep.
 
I'm not questioning anyone's methods of cutting or anything so i don't want anyone to jump off their high horses at this, but you may be feeling crappy cause you're on the "edge" of being a fat burner and a sugar burner.

If you ask me i'd tell you to drop carbs to about 40g a day and up fat to compensate, or up carbs to about 150g so you don't feel as crappy.

Not to mention that you jumped straight into cardio. Usually i'd say use cardio as your "wild card" when things start sticking.

Take this post as you will, i just thought i'd jump in and give you some food for thought. Mmmm...food....Hughhhhhhh....

~ahem~
 
Oh yeah, and have you gradually reduced cals down to below 2000?

For someone who is 202lbs sub-2000 cals seems frightfully low.

Using the "general rule" of bodyweight x12 for cutting you should be at around the 2400cals mark. Right now you're eating like 10 cals per lb!
 
well, me,w8 & DP already discussed this before my diet started. Because i like to "enjoy" my offseason and splurge a bit too far, I add a lot more fat from what other competitors add. Some stay within 10lbs of their comp weight, where i stay about 30-40lbs from my comp weight. So therefor i have too sacrifice some muscle when cutting. SOME MUSCLE!!!

Hey if you think this is bad, i hope you dont lose sleep over it, because it doesnt bother me one bit. I say screw the model look, here in Canada we have winter and that is when i bulk up, so people dont really see how much i have added. Plus it makes it easier for me too lift heavy therefore gain much more muscle.

I'd rather die eating a mcdonalds hamburger than eating a bland chicken breast. Thats just fine because thats just me.
 
Chicken Baby you're right, normally we'd use cardio as a last resort too, but if you wanna read RD's other journal, you'll see why we've got him doing cardio now, though RD kind of explained it...basically, since he's allowed his BF to get too high while bulking he's got no choice but to sacrifice a little LBM....ideally, he would have kept the BF under control or at the very least, started cutting sooner.

And the carbs are a tweak, he's been taking less than ~30 g and using fats until now, his diet is always being tweaked :)

RD's Real Deal!
 
Ah i see, but what are you trying to achieve by putting carbs up to that?

Why not just allow him to carb one more day a week for a few weeks? (i'm actually enquiring here, not questioning.)

RD, did you feel better and less tired/lethargic when your carbs were lower and fat was higher?

Here's the deal CD, your basically a very intelligent yet annoying fella :D

When you entered this thread you were opperating with incomplete information.....nothing you have metioned hasn't been previously discussed by w8 and I, and in far greater detail.... RD's admission that he was "excessively high in BF" would be more understandable had you seen the pictures we have seen.......

,,..while w8 explained the necessity for the early onset of the cardio program, if you follow the progression of nutrional programs handed down...you would see the logic....this week to 10 days, even though employing less meal frequency (RD was at 6 meals a day) is still a mini metabolism reset, thereby using carbs and less fat, which may or may not be taken away with the next tweak!

Here is the problem: We are keeping his body in a constant state change, not allowing metabolic adaption. So questions about energy level are secondary to those about hunger, BW, skinfolds, flatness, hydration, and how RD feels the diet is working.....

Your lack of tact with your questions can make a competitor second guess his program, his coaches, and his level of success....so even though your intentions are good, why don't you


STFU!


DP
 
ADDENDUM:

TCD, I don't know how many contest diets you have been on or supervised, (I'm guessing far fewer than w8 and I)

but "FEELING LIKE SHIT" or in your case like SHITE, goes with the territory! :D

I then went on to say:

Why did i write these?

Because i knew a dickhead like you would jump straight onto what i was saying or asking.

I was genuinely enquiring into why you did certain methods to try and see your train of thought and even learn.

If RD puts all his trust in you, which i'm sure he does, then there is no reason for him to second guess his program. You seem a little insecure with yourself. I'm not trying to bring you down or piss in your cornflakes or be nasty (except the dickhead comment above, which i find too humerous in the context to remove it) although i may seem to be.

I've never once questioned your nutrition strategies so i don't know why you think i'd jump off the wagon to now. Your training advice is a different story of course. The only other thing we may disagree on is the use of certain supplements but that's not all that important really.

And you're right, i was working with incomplete information, which is another reason i used the two disclaimers shown quoted above.

I also have never been on a pre-contest diet, you're right. I have no desire to compete either.

Now, just to be clear, the above is not a flame, insult, attack, jibe or anything of that nature. I'm annoying because it brings the answers i want faster than any other method. it ensures people don't trip up on their answers and i squeeze all the info from them i want. I see you've been taking a few chapters out of my book in that reguard with your two posts there, which i firstly commend you on and secondly, would like to punch you in the face for. :)
 
lmfao again :laugh: :laugh:

The only reason you get away w/ your annoying bullshit Chicken Baby is cause you're so damn funny when you do it, lol. :lol:
 
HolyShit i missed a lot of funny stuff.

all i want to say is that as of this morning i weighed 200lbs!!!

I will have the stats up by tonight.

The show was cool, Markus Ruhl was the main guy, also Darrem Charles put an amazing posing routine together. But the biggest story was Art Atwood. It was his first pro show and he Won. Markus came 2nd, Gustavo Bordell 3rd and Darrem Charles 4th. JD Dowadu was there but wasnt in good condition.

Another cool story which happened a couple hours before the show was, me and 3 of my buddies were coming inside to the event (expo), and on our way in Pro's were coming out to go to there hotels. And the guy who placed 3rd Gustavo Bordell, came up to us and gave us his VIP tickets because he didnt have anyone with him and he was from a different country. But we had four of us with 1 VIP package so we couldnt use it, but that was pretty cool of him. When he was on stage we cheered for him like crazy.

VERY INSPIRED!!

i felt like getting on stage and posing, i feel more into the diet and training now. Im half way there and havent slipped up so i am very proud of myself.

its weird because when i look at a piece of food that i cant eat, i just dont want to eat it. I dont know whats going on.
