@zucchini nice job getting it in after work. It’s not easy to do that sometimes.

 

[ceo]

bros bpc and tb500 stack good together.
do bpc close to injury but tb500 anywhere

 

[zucchini]

How's the actual micro-dosing working?

We haven't even started yet... I think if we started, I would feel a bit better strength wise as well and it would help me lose more fat.

Looks like you got some Ketone action going, not bad. You're pissing out some fat cells, that's a good thing.

bros bpc and tb500 stack good together.

I placed an order. let's see when I get them.

You've been in ketosis for a few days, that means that you're doing something right. That's a good sign.

You will never go wrong with more cardio but I think an hour a day is perfect.


30 minutes even is really good.

Yep, I have been up and down but most definitively been in ketosis for a while since I have spend about 5 days last week in a 24 hour water fast as well.

I am doing 15 mins pre and 15 mins post work out cardio on top of my mid day kickboxing and jujitsu (which is 4 days a week) Swimming is also a part of it.

where do you want to work with personal training?

just go ask them what they would like to see so you know.

I was thinking about getting a certificate just to have it tbh. And then many I can do some part time stuff in the future...

@zucchini nice job getting it in after work. It’s not easy to do that sometimes.

Yeah, that day I was extremely tired. low on strength and hungry. But I had made my mind to just go in get something done.

 

[Austin316]

Not a bad idea to try the peptides, hopefully they help you.

 

[zucchini]

Not a bad idea to try the peptides, hopefully they help you.

yeah I am kindda hoping they will... The injuries are NOT helping

 

[sambee38]

I would imagine you have possible tendon or ligament issues,

which is why you're having these injury issues.

 

[BookerTNY]

You gotta rest these types of injuries, otherwise they do become chronic over time.

 

[Arabian]

It make sure you get some pictures of your diet as well.

We want to see what you're eating.

 

[LevButlerov]

Thankyou guys.
I have been in this ketosis color for a few days now.

You need to be on this level of ketosis for 2 weeks for real good fat loss, long term @zucchini

ust came home from training:
Chest:

Treadmill 3 speed 3 incline 15 mins

Flat barbell press: 2x10 185lbs 1x5 205 lbs
Decline barbell press: 3x10 185lbs 1x2 225lbs
Seated machine press: 3x10 130lbs
Pec dec: 3x10 160
Cable flyes: 3x10 40lbs each side

Treadmill 3 speed 3 incline 15 mins

So I am on a 30 mins (2 splits of 15 mins) cardio. How much more should I add? mind you, I also have kickboxing and jujitsu 4 days a week where jujitsu is a bit more technical and slow paced while Kickboxing is high paced cardio.

Add 15min more cardio, even with BJJ and kickboxing.

@LevButlerov is the ISSA certificate worth it? I kindda wanna get one in personal training...any advice?

It depends on what you want to do with it. If you just want the title, its one thing but full certification for training is another.

Yeah man, couldn't get any pictures last couple of days, been super busy at work and today was just an eggs and nuts day. I will start taking em from tomorrow onwards.

followed by some chicken curry which I didn't take a picture of as I was eating with my room mates and got lost in conversation.

No training today and will munch on nuts at night along with 20 grams of husk (for fiber), below would be final nutrition.

No man, I just got done with food and gonna take a shower and sleep. I will test again tomorrow. I am doing OMAD so really tired all day long as well.

I will get skin on chicken on the next grocery run this weekend.

Do you mean I don't need to measure oil when cooking or that I do not need to count it when eating?

Food looks pretty good man keep it up

Thanks man! I am also going down in weight. weighed in at 98.55kg today. 31st dec was 108.xxKGs. so in 2 months and 17 days, that's about 10kg (22.04lbs) down.

That's great. You're already down 10 kg in less than 3 months. That's a great accomplishment. And you did it the healthy way.

[Vadim Fedorov]

How are you cooking the chicken wings?

You should try them in the air, fryer. They taste really good.

 

[2Thick]

Kickboxing is not easy at all, get a nice sweat and it's a nice little cardio workout.

 

[e2]

treadmill and cardio is on point.

i like the seated dumbbell press as well.

 

[zucchini]

Is there anything added to that beef?

The only thing in the beef was salt and pepper and 125ml of crushed tomatoes, but they were added to a total of 1kg of beef. the one I posted was just left over.

75 carbs, a bit high, are you still in a ketogenic state? @zucchini

Out of the 75 carbs, 46 was fiber, remaining 30 was from other stuff like nuts, some yogurt, tomatoes etc... I think I asked this before as well. every time I try to increase fat, the carbs also go up.
As an example, 100 grams of walnuts have 65fat, 15 carbs, and 15 protein. I think almonds have 50 fat, 22 carabs and 20 protein. So even if I try to get my fat up high with just 200 grams of nuts, I am still getting in 37 grams of carbs + husk added on for fiber or a keto pita (which is all 20 grams of fiber from carbs) it just adds up.

I think on OMAD, that does balance everything out thou.
As of Sunday, I was in Keto state, I posted a picture.

dinner Sounds really good, man. I wish you would post a picture that we want to see it.

Yesterday I was hella tired since I barely slept for 3 hours the night before. I will 110% test for keto today and will post a pic of food as well.

 

[zucchini]

OMAD you might get tired at first.

But over time, you'll get used to it. I tried it myself.

Yeah man, I have done OMAD only once before back in 2018 but was able to go down 10kgs in 1.5 months, however I was alot fitter and diet was alot more nutritious at that time with over 120 carbs over 400 protein and over 100 fat.

This time it's different since I am not as fit anymore and the desk job and other stuff in between just kills me.

More important than the fat loss. And the weight loss is that you are getting healthier.

That's very important.

That's great. You're already down 10 kg in less than 3 months. That's a great accomplishment. And you did it the healthy way.

Bros. Keep up the good work. You're leaning out beautifully.

Thankyou guys, I am gonna keep at it until I hit the 97kg mark and then I will do a refeed and then we will push to get further down.
I remember 95kg is how much I weighed when I thought to my self, "shit... Things are getting way outta hand!" - this was in the lockdown in 2021

Looking at myself in the mirror now (after 10kgs down) I can definitely see the shape coming out but ofcourse no where near how I want to be so we will keep on working. I will post progress pics as well but they will be posted on 31st of this month.

treadmill and cardio is on point.

i like the seated dumbbell press as well.

Thanks man - I am trying to watch a podcast or something while on the mill as I really hate it lol.
I found that seated dumbbell press aren't as stressful for my shoulders as the barbell press, so I am just sticking to them. Once I am able to hit 15 reps on 55lb dumbbells, I will push on to 60lbs.

How are you cooking the chicken wings?

You should try them in the air, fryer. They taste really good.

I always airfry them. make em super crispy!

Kickboxing is not easy at all, get a nice sweat and it's a nice little cardio workout.

Yeah man, I wish more people do it. especially the high paced sparring days. in one 3 minute round, one gets more movement and cardio in than they would in a 30 mins jog.

Yes, I think I can handle a 36 hour fast. Today was a leg day, so hard part is done. Tomorrow I train arms, and some brutal kickboxing at noon, so that could be a challenge but then day after it's just jujitsu and a rest day or maybe an IPSC day in the evening. so I should be fine.

Or we can just start after today.

yes stay low carbs after you get out of fasting but not high fats slowly get food into it
dont add potatoes or bread, stay high fat and protein so you in ketosis

be careful when breaking a fast with spices.

i always recommend breaking a fast with something light and easy to digest.. single ingredient foods

also you don't feel shitty when fasting man, once you pass day 3 you feel euphoric.

So, a fun fact about me. I was born in a house where spices were kind of a staple... I still cannot wrap my head around foods without or with low spices. I am pretty sure I will not have any euphoric with the spice I put it - it was still a bit less for my taste but if something happens, i'll let you guys says, "we told you so!" HAHAHA

And yes, I myself want to get down as much as I can bro!

We're doing a podcasts on Keto supps today

 

[Zyglamail]

keto numbers are lowish but still got ketones.

it has no bearing on the amount of pee you have. It's either there or it's not.

 

[Shrine]

Even if you have a drop of Pee, it would come out very high read if you were in a deep ketosis.

 

[caligirl85]

if you fast minimum 24-30 hours you will piss deep red ketones.
that is something you should do and then go back to diet and see if your ketones stay high

 

[zedhed]

all it takes is eating 1 wrong thing or wrong ingredient in your food to kick you out of ketosis.

its gonna take some trial and error

I didn't have time to cook/eat anything today. Chicken was frozen and I had to get to work... I HAVE to go jujitsu in my lunch break as I need to know a bunch of things we are working on so can't go to eat. Hopefully I don't feel too shitty and can actually survive till I get home and then cook and eat...

Am I still eating No/Low carbs today?

@zucchini i don’t know how you’ll train jujitsu without eating man. That would be tough.

 

[zucchini]

@zucchini i don’t know how you’ll train jujitsu without eating man. That would be tough.

Its tough, cant move as fast and can't wrestle for too long. So what i do is just start on the ground and flow roll. Helps with the technique and brings things into perspective.

Just got a delivery:

I am excited to start using the BPC and TB but I want someone to guide me EXACTLY HOW! Should I put BAC water in it? regular water? how much? How much to inject? inject with an insulin syringe in fat? or where?

I also want to start injecting 0.5ml of this CYP every 4th day just to ease into it before we do something big later on.
BTW Thanks @pur-pharma-canada for the CYP!

Should I ad 5ml BAC water or (Distilled water??) to make a 1ml/ml solution for BPC157 and then start injecting 0.25ml every day in my delt (SUBCUTANIOUSLY), for 20 days? Is this good or should I do it differently?

What about tb500?

I will start injecting 0.5ml test from tomorrow night and keep doing that every 4th day.

Had a free lunch day at work today - it was burgers and sausage so I got two beef sausages, 3 beef burgers with tomatoes and lettuce (no bun and a spoon of BBQ sauce). Super good stuff all grilled in the office! Picture is after I ate one sausage and 1 patty:

Hey man.

So i have increased cardio to a total of 40 mins a day in addition to my kickboxing and jujitsu. On last Sunday i went in and did an hour of cardio. Today with legs I'll only have 30 mins cardio total.

I gkt the BAC water, i just wasn't sure with mixing but found the help i needed. Will mix tonight and inject in my right delt since injury in in right shoulder, lower right back and left wrist/forearm.

I'll inject 250mcg bcp157 everyday.

Is tb500 2mg per day? I only had a total of 5mg of tb 500.

 

[stevesmi]

Legs workout:

Leg extensions: 160lbs 3x12
Hack squats: 3x10 180lbs on the machine
Leg press: 3x8 450lbs on the machine (really wanted to hit another set of 8 since i didn't do atleast 10 for 3 here but also didn't want to stress my back and knee since it's been performing better).
Leg press calves extensions: 3x21 270lbs on the machine
Seated calves raises: 3x21 70lbs on the machine
Lying leg curls: 2x12 165lbs 1x10 175lbs

Just pinned a 250mcg of BPC157 and a 1000mcg of TB500 and a 0.5ml of Cyp (250mg/ml)
I will keep on pinning 250mcg BPC everyday, 1000mcg TB every other day, and 0.5ml Cyp every 4th day.

2-3x a week on the tb500.

go higher the first couple weeks then gradually lower the dose. but give it a solid 3 months to work

 

[Ulter]

Make sure when you mix in the bac water you are CAREFUL.

Sort of want to dribble it in, you don't want to squirt it in fast.

 

[chesty]

Peptides are very, very fragile. So you want to make sure you're very careful.
Don't shake the vial After you put in the bac water

 

[ROIDDERS]

i would front load the tb500. do 10mgs the first week then you can gradually lower it as time goes on It. So you get to a maintenance dose.

 

[ceo]

bros let us know how you like the bpc and tb

Those are pretty good peptides.

So, I didn't shake any of the vials but the water got sucked into the vial as soon as I put the syringe in... Now I am worried if my peptides are ruined

2-3x a week on the tb500.

Yeah It looks like I would have to order more TB

Your ketones are gonna fluctuate up and down, just depends on what you eat and how long you're fasting.

Nice updates, man. Nice honest log.

You're showing how it's done.

I don't mix your peptides together inject them separately.
