My significant other and I are starting p90x next week...I would like to do a spike day...he has IBS and Crohn's disease...so his meals are pretty planned out...so should I do the diet plan for the p90x or can I have a spike day...my BMR is roughly 1380... I'm pretty excited that I'll have a partner to motivate me, but he can eat a bunch of crap food and doesn't gain an ounce, sometimes it bothers his stomach and sometimes it doesn't, I eat crap food and I'm bloated for a week...so any advice would be great !! I'm planing on doing doubles for p90x...
There are usually multiple ways to end up at the same destination. Sometimes you just have to choose what you like best. It's only when other things don't work, do you have to do what you have to do. I have seen some people that just could not lose with a straight caloric intake but when they started spiking, the weight came off weekly. So in other words, at this point, do what you want to do. If you spike, do the 1300 on low days and 2600 on spike day. If you run into problems, you can try going 1.5 x on spike day or 2000. As for bloating, what bloats you depends on what you are sensitive to, Some people can handle one thing and not another. Trail and error really.0 -
this spking sounds perfect for me. I will start this on Saturday. I go grocery shopping on Friday will have good food stocked up so I can do one cheat day a week.0
