Ohh you're doing UD 2.0. I' interested to see what happens here.

Your videos are excellent please keep doing them. Some bits are hilarious (don't know if you're intentionally being funny, i think it's an intentional dry humour though) like the shot of the pork medallions in the oven hahahah

Would I be right in saying the cardio today is optional?

conzy

Kind of.. But I'm going balls deep :pac: I didnt do much cardio after the monster depletion sessions (an hour long walk and my usual bike commuting) so I'm going to do 45 minutes today and tomorrow morning. Just cross trainer at about 120-130bpm I think it will help loosen up the legs for tomorrow evening's workout too.

Probably wise but I'd imagine it would be very easy to give it a miss :pac:

New submission for the OED:

carbiness
adj - state of happiness and excitement at the prospect of eating carbohydrates or having eaten carbohydrates, esp. after a period of carbohydrate restriction.

Definite carbiness the whole second half of that :

Great work on all fronts!

Fair play on the videos and being so dedicated to the diet plan. I don't think I'd have the patience for it.

What are your aims as regards the diet? And how long do you plan on doing it for?

conzy

thanks man, I'm going to run it for 4 weeks, take a week of maintenance on holidays and run it for another 4-6 weeks when I get back and see where that leaves me. If it goes well it should put me in the low 70s and keep / increase my 1rms and I should be around 10% bodyfat. I know @ 75kg I'm already in "do you even lift" territory so people are wondering why I am cutting. But for science / as a challenge I'd like to see could I get very lean

I am well used to being in a deficit and counting calories so the diet has not been a huge shock to the system for me. I will do a review over the weekend, a review of the process as opposed to its effectiveness.

I think I mentioned it in one of the videos but if you went from a strength program and were eating 4000 calories a day into this I dont think many people could hack it. I was already used to high volume / GBC style training, already tracking macros, and already dieting for 10 weeks. So I was in an ideal situation to start it

conzy

Rest day lots of eating carbs, planned my workout for tomorrow, cant wait.

Video is fairly long, I go through myfitnesspal and show the macros for some of the previous days vs the carb load and talk lots of shíte

conzy

I didnt die during the power workout saturday.. Was home the weekend so videos are a bit behind schedule!

In this video:
Im shocked to make it into the ~73s already
Training footage
I eat a protein bar

Ultimate Diet Day 7 video

So thats an overview of each day of the Ultimate Diet 2.0

Loving it tbh

In this video I go through a full day of eating at just below maintenance transitioning back towards low carbs for the start of the second week. And a quick review of the Ultimate Diet, the process as opposed to the results.

Going to drop the Ultimate Diet 2.0 vids back to one / two a week to cover weigh in / training / anything exciting im eating

"Do we really need to be lean?"
"We should do a strength program"
"ooh ooh we should do a bulk"
"have some elbow pain, this should stop him"

Anyway glad to have that sorted, cardio tomorrow and thursday morning, more resistance training thursday. As someone who never really used the leg press I am now doing 22+ metric tonnes of volume per week. dem quads
