Another question regarding carbs, will it matter if the carb intake exceeds protein? Although total calories are the same however.

I remember someone saying they would eat tuna for a snack during the day. What kinda of tuna do you guys prefer?

Also what other foods are good for snacking through out the day?

These are what I eat every now and then. I didn't put it up as a picture because it's pretty big.

i am about to revamp my diet and work in some interval training into my daily two a days. i want to lean down and add a little muscle so i don't need tocut too much weight anymore. i'll be working in some more body weight stuff from chris sommer's book on building an olympic gymnast's body.


slightly off topic, but since you previously asked about lumpini wj4, the day has come. i will be fighting there september 26th at 65kg, just three weeksbefore i fight at 66-67 kg in canada. i imagine if i remain injury free i ought to be in incredible shape in canada, and my weight won't have the chance torise to high, which is ideal because i'll be damned if i have to cut 15 lbs in the canadian cold.

Good luck, man. Just curious...when you fight indifferent countries, who pays for the plane tickets? Where do you live at while in Thailand? And are there youngins' at your gym? I know some starttraining before they even hit 10 yrs old.


I did the low weight, more rep routine today. It was easy at first, but got pretty hard down the line. I noticed that after I was done, my arms felttight...like when you just started lifting for the first time.

Not much change, if any, since the last pic I took of myself ~1 month ago. But I had to do it again to mark the 1 year anniversary of picking up thislifestyle.

Will continue to add a pic every 6 months.

I also don't sweat a lot when I do HIIT. The weather's been around 70 degree Fahrenheit when I do it. Well I should say that I do sweat,but my whole shirt isn't soaked. But my heart does feel like it's about to jump out though.

I take it it's because HIIT focuses on shorttime span so your body doesn't 'heat up' per se.

u sure you're fully hydrated to start? when i do intervals, i have a delayed reaction sweat, so the first few intervals i'm barelystarting to sweat, but i'm mad winded. aren't u running on a hill too?

 

[keepzdasneakz]

^ same here, once I slow down a bit, the sweat comes pouring.

 

[awwsome]

Anybody do HIIT on the treadmill?
I run on the highest incline + highest speed for about a minute
Then walk for about a minute and 30 seconds.

I do this for about 20 minutes, is there a more effective way to do my HIIT?

I always drink water through out the day. As long as I urinate once an hour and it's clear I'm good I think. I do sweat, but I don'tsweat like I'm at the gym where you can grab my shirt, twist it, and water will be dripping out. And yes I'm running up the a hill. I took this lastyear, but this is part of the incline level. This picture is around the 3/4 line..when I'm here I'm almost finish.

I need to not be able to see my abs by december.

You can't do it on a treadmill because most likely your treadmill won't go past 12 MPH and if you're sprinting your heart out, you canprobably beat that.

IF you must use the treadmill, you can lower the resting period from 90 seconds to 60 seconds or 30 seconds.

Audi, where do you get Ezekiel bread at? I've seen the cereal around, but never the bread.

[refuse2lose24]

they got ezekiel bread at trader joes and whole foods.

I usually but the organic omega 3 whole grain bread from costco. 5 grams of protein per slice and only 14 grams of carbs per slice. Also has flaxseed and someother good stuff

 

[al audi]

+ cup of milk to wash it down.

great snack on the go.
