Good suggestion. I will get some broccoli next this Sunday.
I have never used it before... I guess I gotta watch a youtube video on what do i do after I piss on it lolThat will work.
Stay with your leg day you’re doing, it’s already intense.
Also add celery, goes good with broccoli.Good suggestion. I will get some broccoli next this Sunday.
It should have a scale on it.I have never used it before... I guess I gotta watch a youtube video on what do i do after I piss on it lol
I will keep the leg day the same!
I don't like celery tbh but I guess I will do it.Also add celery, goes good with broccoli.![]()

Made some chicken, dipped in egg coated with all purpose floor with seasoning blend and cooked in some olive oil. Had about 200 grams of that.
Gonna eat some more soon and brought a 100% dark chocolate so let's try that too.
I did that ketone piss test, it came out negative. what does that mean?
Ate all the chicken I cooked. Had to cook beef again just not for tomorrow. Will just chow on some nuts for the night and below are today's stats:

I did that test, it came negative. I do not know what it menas. Maybe i did it wrong?with your training and diet now, can we start ketone tests please?
you will be feeling ketosis for sure
What else can/should i snack on for oils?Good healthy snack
What should i exchange them with for fats?nuts are a great option but cycle them up so you don't develop allergies
I have been thinking about adding one more exercise to Triceps and one more to Biceps for a while now... I might add some reverse curls for the biceps so there isn't too much strain on the bicep and for triceps I might add skull crushers so I have one laying down exercise as well. Take my exercise count from 4 each part to 5 each part.Very nice workout from yesterday.
I like the healthy lifestyle.
Maybe I did the test wrong or something? I did follow what the box said, pee on the test part, keep it for 15 seconds and check color. it came back negative. Should I do one more today?with your training and diet now, can we start ketone tests please?
you will be feeling ketosis for sure
Keep up the good work, Buddy.
The bicep training and the triceps are really good.
Thankyou guys! I like to shake things up after a while, it just feels better too.Mixing up the arms like that is a wise choice. I think a lot of professionals. Do it like that.
Thankyou my friend!Looking really good man. The nuts. Look, incredible.
And I like the different types of foods you're eating.
I just run out of them so fast, and making trips to the grocery store again and again just sucks lolDefinitely would like to see more vegetables in your diet. Don't forget those.
haha I can eat beef forever! I love it!Beef looks really good. Press like that.
Seems like you're making them into little protein bars. lol
I used to compete in armature MMA, kickboxing and jujitsu. Had a good bag full of medals to my name.Kickboxing is no joke at all. Had a girlfriend invite me to do a session with her and it beat me up.
And eggs together is a great idea.
If your Ketone test came out negative, then means you don't have any ketones. It's that simple.
negative means you're not in ketosis bro @zucchiniMaybe I did the test wrong or something? I did follow what the box said, pee on the test part, keep it for 15 seconds and check color. it came back negative. Should I do one more today?
That's definitely a good idea. I can measure them n take them with me....I keep walnuts and almonds at my work desk so if I feel like a snack they are already there. Great option as long as you know how many to eat.
My diet has been exactly what i have been sharing here. I haven't cheated atall even when i have really wanted to. Idk if its different for everyone, the time when their body goes to keto, but i will do another test today.negative means you're not in ketosis bro @zucchini
you need to stay on a higher fats diet longer
please share foods and macros we gotta make adjustments
Love add nuts in to dietBreakfast today will be:
250 gram cottage cheese with 50 grams of almonds and 50 grams of walnuts. Didn't want to drink protein today:

Your ratios are way better @zucchini but I cant find your ketone test, are you testing for ketosis? with this input of fats/carb macros you should be ketogenic by now.No jujitsu today, I instead slept in my car... and the lunch was same as yesterday:

225 grams of Chicken cooked in 2tb spoon of oliveoil and 100 gram of Salad
I did a test a few days ago that was negative. I will do one now once I get home.Your ratios are way better @zucchini but I cant find your ketone test, are you testing for ketosis? with this input of fats/carb macros you should be ketogenic by now.
It was basic, but it was nice. I've loved omelet with paprika and salt since i was a kid.Nice breakfast
I am trying to follow all the advice hereBros. Yes, we definitely like that you're getting in Your Greens.
They were cooked in an airfryer. I did have to puncture them with a knife to get the cooked all the way.Chicken thighs. With skin are really good.
How did you end up cooking them?
Air fryer is definitely a blessing lolI like to cook chicken in the air fryer.
Comes out very crispy.
Thanks my friendThanks so much for posting this. Lots of good foods that you're eating.
Yes, it was good. You should try it!Cottage cheese and nuts. I've never had that before.
Does it taste good?
I tried the 100% cocoa chocolate, didn't like it. Still have the almost full bar sitting in my room.I like to have nuts with some chocolate. 100% cocoa chocolate. Not the one with sugar?
Thank-you sir!The lunch you put together. Looks amazing.
Chicken breast and Mediterranean salad is on point.
Hahaha that has happened so many times to me and you'd think i would have learnt but i haven't. I just stay a bit more careful and thank god this keyboard is a waterproof keyboard so i can just wash itJust don't eat your food Close to the keyboard. That little piece of food will get into the keyboard and screw it up.lol

250 grams of boneless chicken breast seasoned and dabbed in 1/4 cup of flour, pan fried in 5tb spoon of olive oil

to get into ketosis you need higher fats and minimum equal to protein.

I am trying the best I can!Looks good man. Nice macros on that also
oh wow. even lower carbs? damn! that might be a bit hard for me but I will do all I can. It's just that no matter how much meat I eat, I still want some bread or rice with it (even thou I haven't had bread or rice since I was asked not to).Your goal is a ketogenic state bro that will need higher fat then protein and low low carbs like under 30
