Weigh-In: 67.3kg

Bike - 25 min AM fasted cardio
Calories: 1782
Protein: 170.7g
Feast Day 14 - Workout Day
Thursday, January 20, 2011
Weighin: 67.0kg
Cardio:
none
GST Squat Day
Core: 3 sets, 2x8rep,1xAMRAP @65% 1RM
Supps: 2-3 sets, 8-10 reps
Core: BB Back Squat - 95lbs x 8, 8, 14
Supp 1: Front Squat - 85lbs x 8, 8
Supp 2: DB Bulgarian Split Squat- 10lbs x 10, 10
Supp 3: Explosive Toe Raise- 185x10, 10
Calories: 1674
Protein: 121.2g
Cals low (but acceptable).. wasn't very hungry during the day. Didn't have a lot of time post-workout to eat, but I had a controlled cheat (half of a Little Caesar's pizza).
I'm down in weight today lol
My recovery hasn't been the best lately...
I've been feeling a fair bit of DOMS, my core is SHOT right now from the press day workout (did decline situps after lifting), my hamstrings have finally stop hurting (took till today [fri]) from my workout on SUNDAY.
None of my days have been PERFECT but they are excellent 80% of the time. Lifting sessions remaining strong. I think for recovery I don't need more days off but more sleep. By the time I have to work something again, I've recovered that part. Tomorrow is supposed to be my back workout; my quads and core will likely hurt.
I've been supplementing with 3-4x HumanaSport per day. 1 in the morning, 1 with lunch, and 1 either at another meal throughout the day, or 1 pre workout and 1 post workout.
BCAA intake has been high but it may not have been high enough. I'll work on this and do some math to figure out exactly how much I have been taking.
I have 3-4 more weeks of the Feast Phase (it will end up a little longer than some just because of my workout routine); and then I will transition to Cruise.
I will be doing a 2nd run immediately after this one, and I will be using Kre-Anabolyn, Adaptogen N, and Burn It Up, with Xtend and my other creatine/preworkout/etc supps.
That's all for now, just gotta get through the rest of these workouts and keep my cals in a happy place.
I got a question regarding protein intake, though. I remember reading it's supposed to be 1.5x BW, which puts me at ~210g; I can do this (and have been at times), but since I'm cutting should I aim for 1xBW or a different number??
Also, if I follow the GLP's next run, is there a way to fit deadlifts in there as a main exercise as well?

For you proteins need, I would rather calculate them like this:
(Calories need)x(0.3)/4 = proteins need in grams
0.3 for 30% of your calories from proteins
4 for 4 calories per grams of protein
Example for me: 120% maintenance on training day = 1.2x3000 = 3600 calories
3600*.3/4 = 270g proteins needed
(I weight 244 at this very moment so 270/244 = approx 1.1g/lb but that is not important IMO because on non workout day I take 100% maintenance and that makes approx 0.92g/lb...)
And before you ask: yes, I do love maths. In fact, I work with them everyday. Does that makes me a geek?

No, it means dummies like me need you that much more...bigpelo wrote:For you proteins need, I would rather calculate them like this:

And I'd like to know your opinion on this...
I have 2 workouts of Micro 1 left (8reps @ 65%)
then 4 workouts of Micro 2 (6 reps @ 75%)
then 4 workouts of Micro 3 (3 reps @ 85%)
And finally 4 workouts of Micro 4 (1 reps @95%, basically a 1RM week)
I'm going to continue GST through the cruise phase for this round, so I'd like to know whether you think I should make the 1 rep max week the last week of Feast or the first week of Cruise?

Rob usually suggest you stay away of 1RM during cruise. "never go heavier than 90% 1RM during cruise". I would do it last week of feast...beefcake66 wrote:And I'd like to know your opinion on this...

Thanks big pelo;
The "95%" will hopefully actually be 90% week (that's what it was first week of Feast, it cycles around every 4 weeks).. basically tryin for new PRs.. so I guess it would be better suited for Feast..
I'm tryin to figure out a way that I can finish 2 full runs in the length of the Double T contest I'm in.. this first one is going to take ~75 days total, then I'll get 3-4 days off ("week off") before doing famine again. Need a compressed cut BP...
I'm also gonna lower my cals cause I'm not losing as fast as I'd like (it's my fault for having cheat days)... I'm riding a fine line, because I WANT to be SKINNY but I also want some huge muscles....
Hopefully BP 3.0 arrives soon, I'd love to take advantage of the new techniques in my 2nd full run!
