I have not done a specific day to load up on carbs. Is carb nite another name for reload? I know some with eat very little carbs for 6 days and reload on carbs the final day. I'm on a low carb diet so not specifically keto. I make sure to eat plenty of quality fat and decent amount of protein. However I will have a low…

I drink my coffee black. I even drink espresso black so I am not normal :)

If you have a high powered blender like a Vitamix then you can make it yourself

I did not make this but enjoyed eating it :) Steak and Eggs

On the weekend my first is usually something simple. Soft boiled eggs on top of sliced tomatoes, avocado, bacon and shredded mozzarella. Seasoned with fresh cracked pink salt and black pepper.

Yesterday I bought Yurbuds Inspire 300 and planning to return them today. While they stay in they are not comfortable and the sound is decent but not great.

Your diet will determine how much weight you lose.

I would think jumping rope is consideelrably better and more challenging. Jumping rope works several different muscles and is awesome for cardio.

Heads up for anyone with this installed or is thinking about it http://www.popsci.com/pokemon-go-has-access-to-your-entire-google-account Anyone who signed up for Pokémon GO with a Google account (the other option, a Pokémon.com account, is unavailable right now) has perhaps unknowingly given Nintendo and developer Niantic…

I made pizza cups couple years ago for the kids. Wonder if that would be easier with the fat head dough because it would not need to be stretched over a bowl?

Something like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACJzYyAKI_k

Made a fathead pizza for lunch today with my daughter :) Toppings - sliced mozzarella, tomatoes, pepperoni, and bacon.

Yesterday I had spicy pork belly - asked them to hold the rice and sub extra veggies. He looked at me funny and then said no problem :) Great lunch for $7.

I see a lot of people mentioning missing fruit. Curious if everyone is completing removing fruit from their diet? I thought it was OK to eat certain fruits? I miss pizza night with the kids. I made a fathead pizza last week and my daughter really liked it so there is a chance it gets added for one of the weekly meals :)

Appreciate the feedback :)

Some good info in the article. Appreciate the link :)

Thanks! I Never heard of farklet workouts but it turns out I have been doing it for a few weeks now :) On the weekends I take for my dog for a jog/walk/sprints. I strength train 4 days during the week and plan to incorporate specific sprint style workouts Wed and Sat.

Yes that would be great!

@dancing_daisy better described what I was thinking. Vegans/Vegetarians tend to be catered to more because there are meals designed specifically for them. LCHF eaters we have to hunt a bit more but everyone is right, in the end it is not difficult. The other day I had a lettuce wrapped bahn-mi burger :)

SW - Dec 2015: 220+ (did not weigh myself before starting) CW- July 2016: 190 GW - Dec 2016?: 155

This is probably a dumb question but will ask anyway :) I have been doing the same strength training routine for 8+ weeks and seeing solid results. Any reason I should consider changing? Second question. I used to run track (sprinter) and looking to regain lost speed. Any specific exercises or routines? Thanks!

hmm no one works on improving their speed?

Loved having a home gym growing up. My dad had a huge setup so I could do everything a commercial gym had to offer. If I had the space I would do it in a heartbeat. Only major concern with having a home gym like my dad is when it is time to move. Boxing up, moving and setting up a weight room is a PITA!

If you do not want to weigh the bones then either buy boneless wings or strip the meat from the bones and weigh it.

Thanks for the tips. I propped my phone against the water bottle to record my bench :) Felt a bit odd recording myself but no one seemed to pay attention so in the end it was no biggie.

How are you guys recording your lifts? Tripod? Or have someone else record you?

IMO an online trainer could still be very helpful for dialing in your routine and macros.

Wish I had the space for a home gym. Maybe with the next house. Until then it is a commercial gym.

I have Jaybirds Bluebuds X. They sound great and the battery last a long time. Fitment is very important with the Jaybirds. Bass was really flat until I used the correct size tip. Bose just released a new wireless set for $150 that are getting really great reviews. Sept this year they will be releasing a wireless ear buds…

Yep actual caffeine pills
