Eggs and jam is a nice combo…..

Oils are/were good. Orals were always poor.
Not used them in a while however. -
Do the nasal sprays actually work? Thought it was a gimmick.

I always favour adding carbs until things get a bit heavy. Then I’ll add fat just to get calories in.
You can add how you want. 50g post workout, or 10g split over 5 meals. Make a meal that was pro/fat into pro/carb, and add the fat to another fat meal, or just mix all three macros.
No set rules…

No.

I’m so fucked having moved from a PPL to UL split that i need extra off days. A full upper session is very taxing and leaves me shattered. Lower is the same volume as before but is twice a week rather than every 4-5 days. Doing Push and Pull together, although volume is slightly less than on a PPL. Frequency is again higher. Plus its a lot of work to get through combining them. Takes me a good 90-100 minutes, rather than about 70-80 mins when i did PPL.
I would either up your volume, or up the intensity, rather than adding frequency.

Only if dieting. Off season i dont. Oats are an exception however, and i assume 5g of fat for a cup of oats (50-55g carbs).
150g isnt that hard to eat. Just left my gut a bit off…..
My thinking these days is i tend to do 10-12k steps a day, and 10k supposedly burns 500 cals. Plus 25 mins on the bike fasted so assume that’s 250 cals. Thats just over 185g of carbs im getting through just in NEAT and cardio. So if i eat about 250g to cover the bases, then as the off season progresses i can just add more fat as required (or not, and just add carbs to training days).
What i found when only having 100g of carbs a day, but much higher fat, was the next training day i was a bit lacking in energy. -
High as you can tolerate I suppose before your arse starts to smell like a sewer. I’ve been as high as 140-160g and it’s pretty nasty eating that much fat.
Even on off days now I wouldn’t go above 100g, and would fill the rest with carbs. Just stay active and do a little cardio.
Training days about 60g is good for me.

I lower my calories by about 1000 on off days. This mostly is because of less fuel needed, as my sessions are long and taxing as hell. Also I find it just gives me a break from shoving food down.
So if im having 500g carbs a day on training day and 200g is post workout, and 50g intra. On off days I’d have probably 200g and slightly higher fat. Possibly 20-30g more fat. Protein about the same.
That’s just my preference.
Also agree on some carbs before bed if you train first thing. I always have some carbs with dinner to help fuel the next days work out and for better sleep. As long as calorie intake allows for it that is….
-
It’s usable, but for me 10-15mg max a day. I took it before bed and noticed no appetite increase. Did it keep me leaner? Possibly? Hard to say.
It’s not that cheap, and will it give great results? In my opinion, no. Not worth the outlay in my opinion.

The ester May take time to build but it also takes time to clear. So a 12 week cycle of EQ would likely be 16 weeks if the dosage was good.
Not a huge fan of EQ for off season. Ok but NPP is better. Also not a fan of the Deca Ester. Again I’d use NPP.

Hi Dean. Good to hear regarding the Mrs. Mine was sick as a dog but then she only really supplements her diet with ben and Jerry’s, and milk tray.
Would you still use r-ALA post workout? Or are we pretty much primed anyway? Suppose it may depend on amount of carbs consumed pre and intra?
Interesting about the kidney function as all this it will damage the kidneys must have strated from somewhere?
-
Hi Dean. Hope alls going well with the PCT the Mrs isn’t chucking up with morning sickness to much. Haha
What is your take on r-ALA as a GDA? How is best to utilise it? Timing, dosage, frequency etc?
Also I said in Sas’s log that as far as I was aware, high protein diets don’t damage healthy kidneys. Any studies that show this to not be true? So many family and friends all say that my kidneys will be wrecked but I’ve been doing this 8 years and I’m still alive and not on dialysis. Haha
