  • My workout music is limited to Combichrist and The Prodigy. On and on and on. Worked great for the past 5 months. :))

  • Why don't you try using fat yogurt instead (a 4% fat one is perfect) and replace fruit? Fruit are simple carbohydrates and therefore are absorbed very fast by your body and used as a source of energy. This is not really ideal if you have a long time span between breakfast and lunch. Fat, on the other hand, although more…

  • What is your body fat percentage? If you have a high body fat percentage, it is better to calculate your protein intake as 1-1.25g/lean body mass. What you have to understand is that you cannot build muscle while losing fat. These are simply two opposed things. While you need to be in a caloric deficit for fat loss, you…

I plan to go as low as possible with it in low-carb days and increase the carbs percentage to a 50-55% in high-carb. God, these people and the experiments they perform on themselves... :))

  • Is that cardio HIIT? It depends on how intense the cardio session is. Strength workouts as in weight lifting? If what you are doing is 15 minutes of HIIT (that is RPE +8) combined with weight lifting I would definitely go for 6 days.

  • Yes, it does matter. If all you care about is the number on the scale, then it's fine, make sure you stay close to your calorie goal and you will eventually see the numbers dropping off. However, if you want to lose weight in order to look and feel better, it is rather important to keep your macros slightly in check as…
