« on: January 14, 2017, 11:31:07 pm »Well I heard a good analogy from Dave Tate and I kind of want to explain it as it relates to my diet this time around.
Last time I had to basically put all of my eggs in the basket because I was on a strict timeline. This time I won't need to considering I have about a year or so.
The way I am looking at my diet is like a deck of cards and each card is a change to the diet. You only have so many options that you can do to manipulate the diet so adding and taking away cards slowly will prolong the fat loss. The more cards you use at once the less you have later on. I started off with basically.......
No cardio
non strict diet(poor eating choices)
piss poor workouts
So here are the cards I've implemented
Whole Eggs------>Egg Whites
Medium-high carbs----->low carbs/cycling
Low volume & intensity workout ----->Cardio Based weight training higher volume & intensity
Beef---->Turkey burgers
Little Veggies---->a lot of veggies
I implemented them throughout 4 weeks.
Cards I can throw in later on is running, diesel ass walking, more Xfit, BW circuit workouts, recovery methods such as stretching and massages, and other shit that I will try to think of
pretty cool, i like the analogy and the transitions you listed.
