Well its 12AM and im on my last meal, i switched around meal 5 with meal 6 so i have the protein right after my workout. I can tell ya, i feel a difference in my body eating like this, interesting to see the results, tomorrow I sprint, we will see how that goes. I took 1 Ripped this morning before cardio, and then 2 around 5PM, and the two hit me too hard, since I will be sprinting i will take the 1 and 1 again tomorrow so i dong bug out while sprinting and try two again on day 4. I am now going to get a little "deep" into this diet since i have been feeling a lot better than usual and and almost becoming obsessed.
LOL
I am using Isopure for my protein and had a question. Are you guys using skim to mix in? today for post workout I mixed with splenda fat free ice cream that has 70 calories per serving, 2 grams of sat fat, and like 4 grams of sugar. Do you guys think thats ok? I mean, bodybuilders reccomend having at least .8 of each pound in simple sugar after a workout, then again, we are trainging to get lean and maintain muslce. Just a thought, but what do you guys mix with and do you think what I am proposing is ok? If not, should I do the math and remove 70 calories from another meal?
Regarding meals. What do you guys think about substituting meals within phases? Meaning, phase 1, Option 1 has a lot of fish, and I dont want to eat that much fish, but I also like having eggs in the morning, but my protein shake towards the night. THat means switching maybe 3 meals. Can you go meal 3 for meal 3 within the phase or is it more complicated and the option is supposed to be kept strict.
Lastly, substituting the exercises, can i substitue some exercises? Like for day 1,8,15 heavy load, can i use regular bench press and for the medium load day do incline dumbell instead of bench press? I am not a fan of decline really, and I think that switch would be more effective for me. Again, instead of military standing, seated dumb press, and for the setaed dumb press during the mdium load, i would do front and side raises. ANy input? BTW, today i replaced romanian deadlifts with laydown hammy curls, and reverse lunges with seated quad extension. Worked out pretty well. Dont wanna hurt myself for sprinting.
Any help is greatly appreciated, and I am here for all for any questions that may be asked so please do not hesitate to ask me my opinon or any advice. GOOD LUCK TO ALL AND KEEP ON IT!
