Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: High frequency squat time approaching
« on: January 23, 2011, 06:00:32 pm »Hang on. You have existing knee pain and want to try MSEM squatting? Are you high?
0.25mg Xanax homie...
I wish you to go through the same stuff I gone, so maybe you can understand why you need to take Xanax.
What did you go through?

Mistake #1: You already have symptoms of a lack of jumping efficiency and now you plan on doing 4 days per week squatting with no jumps? That's a recipe for disaster.
Mistake #2: Natural Ectomorph + high frequency squatting + fat loss = fail
Strength gains are difficult under best case scenarios. Take someone who's naturally recovery challenged and put them on a recovery challenging frequency protocol and stress the system even more with intervals and caloric restriction and you're asking for trouble.
Mistake #3: Not tracking your diet
Exercise has a very minimal impact on body composition in the absence of caloric changes. You can go out and do 30 minutes of intervals and burn 300 calories. Fuck, that's a couple of spoons of peanut butter. Last year a study was done in Texas where they took a group of sedentary peopel and had them lift weight and do cardio 3-4 days per week. There was no dietary intervention whatsoever and after 6 weeks the average fat loss was like half a pound. You might be able to get it done by changing the composition of your diet but the more attention you cgive it the better your results are going to be.
In short, you can probably make some gains with your proposed schedule but it's not the best use of your time or the modalities it contains.

Just to make it clear: carbs = sugar
your body burns fat all the time. and your body will always use glycogen as fuel (either from blood sugar, muscle glycogen, protein->glycogen, etc). By doing cardio you won't make your body burn fat, you'll only increase caloric consumption.

Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.
people just want to help you and you just act dumb...
I don't see the problem in logging your food intake. You log your training and even your medication (!).
One week of logging and then another one with adjusted kcal is enough to know how much you can eat. You could even invest one hour of preparing some meals on paper with the same amount of kcal. so you can just chose which one u want to eat and just make it according to your plan.

« on: January 20, 2011, 09:13:34 am »Nice thread and good answers so far!
But wow @1800kcal a day... some of my meals are 1800kcalI should be grateful that i have a crazy high metabolism
I can do that shit and maintain my body weight around 11-13% no problem. I can literally eat all I want but if I want to cut weight I nearly always have to stay around 2000kcal...fucking bs!
This summer i'll see how much less i have to eat to cut to real 7-8% bf

So what wonder happens when u do cardio? Does your body light a flame in your fat cells that magically burns them?
...
NO!
You just increase your daily caloric consumption. You could do the same with less food.
Cardio wastes muscle (even though Adarq will come in and say no) and in a cycle that focuses and peaking at max strength i don't think this is favourable!
I think enough people told you now that you were just lazy about your nutrition and u really just need to make a food log to keep track of your calories and macronutrients.
Cutting fat (especially at your leanness) is easy!
