I doubt I could last too long without a meal in the morning. I'm eating now, and the hunger pains are crippling. Salad never tasted so good.

Yea I have no casein whey.
 
Damn it's so much easier to plan the diet when you can train at optimal time :( its such a PITA when you train am.

Talking of training, still on for 3?
 
Yea still good for 3, best to be in the gym room for 3 too.

Chicken salad and almonds didn't touch the sides, still hungry. Good times..

May have to get some good oil, been making my dressing with virgin olive oil, some lemon, pepper and salt.
 
Chicken salad, 25g almonds, 2g omega 3 (660mg EPA, 440mg DHA), 5000IU Vitamin D3, 80mg Vitamin C + 10mg Zinc.

160g chicken breast (cooked weight) cooked in Nandos lemon and herb spice rub.
Salad (cherry tomatoes, various lettuces, rocket, cucumber)
Dressing (virgin olive oil, salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon)

:p


Training was interesting today with no carbs since Saturday night.

Deads
60x8 (rdl)
90x6 (rdl)
110x6 - felt a tweak in my lower back, I think I have some tightness from over the holidays
140x3 - seems fine now
160x3
180x1
200x1 - much slower than I'm used to. Lack of carbs is definitely having an effect on my top end power.
235x2 - not surprised I didn't get 3, so little power. Hoping next week once the diet has bedded in I'll nail it no problem.

DB Rows (per side)
50x12 x3

Standing one arm cable rows (per side)
15x10 x3

NG Chins
8,8,8

Should mobility - felt really good today.
 
Right so according to that I should be backloading the day before training and going carb free on training days. Getting the insulin spike from whey hydro post workout. I guess in the book he assumes people training pretty much back to back with just a few rest days.

edit: reading the comments either is fine, but backloading the night before training is better it seems for strength.

Mon : Low
Tues: High
Wed: Low
Thurs: High
Fri: Low
Sat: Low
Sun: High

4 x low
3 x high

or as I'm doing now

Mon: High
Tue: Low
Wed: High
Thur: Low
Fri: High
Sat: Low
Sun: High

3x low
4x high

Think I will stick with the original plan, seems better for cals and for my schedule.

Yea back loading on rest days doesn't make sense and goes against the the entire book. Weird he suggests it. Loads of people are confused if you read the comments.
 
Didn't have as much time in the gym tonight, so cut a few things short.

Paused Bench
bar
60x6
80x4
100x3
120x1
135x3 - was tough, feeling the change of diet but glad I nailed it.

Normal Bench
100x10
100x10 - would have done 1 more set if I had time

OHP
bar
40x8 x3 - hard after bench press

Dips
BWx8 x2
20x6
30x6
45x6 - fatigue!

I was chatting to a chap in the gym and he thought I looked like I weigh 14st, I guess that's a good thing.
