12 weeks in ketosis?
Currently, I'm trying to attain 6% body fat in 12 weeks. So far...I'm at week #2 and I'm down to 13%. I had tried to do the Bodyopus plan but, I found myself just eventually shoveling down junk-food on the "carb-up" days. So, I decided to stay in ketosis for the remainder of the following weeks. I'm not too concerned about some muscle mass lost...(I'd rather be ripped and shredded...and lose some muscle/strength...than be bulky and strong...what I am now). My plan is as follows:
I'm doing cardio ...2x a day (one session on an empty stomach in the morning...one session in the evening) 5 days a week. This is torture, but...to get ripped...I'll do it. The duration is around 30-40 min. each. I train with weights: Mon. Wed. and Fri. ...usually sticking around the 15-20 rep range. I'm supplementing with Xenadrine, Vanadyl Sulfate, L-glutamine, Chromium, and protein powders/bars/pre-made shakes. I take in 3000 calories a day (as of late) and I cut down 200-300 calories each week. I get 0-10 carbs each day to ensure my being in ketosis. I've lost over 10 pounds so far. I'm assuming most of it is water-weight and now the layers of fat will be stripping off...I hope. Any comments or suggestions would be very helpful...thanks. |

Would it kill someone to respond to me?

easy
Your plan looks solid to me Zeus ... Should get good results from that ...
The only thing I would alter (from experience) is to keep your reps in the 6 - 8 range, and employ supersets to help you retain more muscle mass. Other than that, full speed ahead. |
