Well, I was perusing avant labs and came across a discussion they were having. I have always believed in stripping the weight off as fast as possible, which I thought was a fairly rare opinion. Apparently a few people go at it this way, alot more than I thought. So, since almost 2 weeks ago, I decided a fast cut was in order. Surprisingly, I have not lost strength in any exercise but squats, which I am attributing to the HIIT 4 days a week. I am down to 216 from 230 in this short time. One thing I also notice is that I sleep way better as well, probably from the energy crash after a workout.
Anyway, I do not go at this alone, I have my trusty friends Absolved, Flax oil and Phosphatidylserine by my side. While I use the absolved and flax to help speed up the fat loss, I feel that the phosphatidylserine is the key. I feel that since my body is under stress from being at a caloric deficit, I am primed for cortisol release. It is my hope, which has been backed by scientific evidence, that 800mg of Phosphatidylserine prior to workouts will get a handle on the cortisol and prevent at least some of the muscle breakdown which can occur thru heavy dieting.
Well, what are your thoughts? Do you prefer short quick cutting phases or long drawn out ones?
