Nearly 4 weeks out, changes on pmsf are daily , feel flat week, but this is how it should be done. I am aiming to be ready two weeks out. Then slowly add some carbs to be full rested and this will benefit me so much rather then push till last day and look stringy and malnourished. I dont use insulin gh so I need to be very precise when to stop cutting.

 

[Tomgrass]

In fact psmf worked so well that today I woke up very very lean. I am starting reintroduce carbs again. Two times in a week I will do carbless postworkout - on my days off from work. Being that lean put me in a comfortable situation now. I can easy be on 200 carbs a day- my metabolism is very very fast now, 3 night in a row i was waking up very hungry. Last night slept 3 hours only, but still gym in the morning. Adding carbs will make me more active gym workouts gonna be better and that will allow utilise injectible carnitine to its full potential.

4 weeks out. Shape is decent kinda glad. No cheats since I started as I really wanna push hard. Only thing i had was a small piece of homemade cheesecake on easter. Every day proteins around 350 grams around 30 grams of fat and about 120 150 carbs.

Face is getting even more sunked , not ripped face yet but close…very close.

First time today I can say: I will be a threat to those guys. Still counting.

 

[Tomgrass]

I can count of few fingers how many days i felt good last few weeks but I decided I will grind it and I think its worth it. There are days when I want to say it fuck it but I know I will regret it if I will give up. Every day is struggle energy is very low but not long till end so time to tough up and just do it.

We have been recently talking in one of the topics that growing into the show is not possible. After yesterday loading around 400 carbs my weight is 98.5 it looks like it is possible and I am leanest I have been for a loooong time.

I think I will for good adopt carbless postworkout. Too good not to use it, too many benefits, insulin sensitivity and what goes with it nutrient partitioning is great. My sleep always when I eat bowl of oatmeal is amazing , waking up relaxed and rested. Plus after workout why would i like to stop fatburning mode if I can have it all day till last meal. No need to cook carbs just proteins and salad and I am ready to go. I always train in the morning so carbs from last meal just wait there to be utilised in the session. I am not sure how recovery gonna be long term but also recently all I had was 30 grams so it does not really should make great difference. Proper whey shake before food for sure will cause enough spike and also glut4 does not really need carbs per se to work just after session. It is madness to do the same expect different results so I need to change something. This prep tought me a lot what my body need. I fed up cutting every year I need to be shredded all the time , key gonna here be shredded and feel great but I think I am on the right track, started to see some patterns.

This psmf tought me one thing? If i have enough proteins i can EASY go without carbs and I will not loose muscle. That was a great eye opener for me where I was eating around 300 proteins and muscle did not vanished. In past I was trying to go keto but lost muscles. This time I wanna be super lean so the only logical choice is to do keto like NYmuscle- higher proteins lower fat. If I didnt lost muscles eating proteins only I will not loose them when I will add some fat. Today I will go and buy mct and for my supper I will have some eggs on butter. I need to slightly add some calories as I slept only 2 hrs that night. My body is in a survival mode.

 

[Tomgrass]

Have not been that lean for a long long time. 97.0 kg. Changes on keto are daily. Feel a little bit weak, but at least the moments I have upped the fats I finally I am able to sleep. Higher protein keto is amazing taste wise. If I miss something sweet I simply will mix 2 scoop chocolate casein in a coconut milk and that will make me chocolate pudding. I dont miss carbs at all. In fact I think once competition is over I will stay on keto. For now I will go straight keto till peak week. Day before contest I will eat a burger and home made muffins just to get a little bit more fullness and will take 10 mg superdrol with this meal and next day I should be where I want to be. There will be no crazy carb loading at all. 200 carbs should do the trick.

Additional recently at work i have got herniated disc in lower back. Off for a few days. Cant even put my socks on. Lucky I am eating keto so it will greatly decrease inflamation. Doctor told me to take strong painkillers and exercise daily. Rowing with 140 kg never was a problem for my back but literally 5 kilograms and wrong sudden movement made me suffer as hell. First two nights were horrid. Couldn’t sleep and move in bed. Now sitting longer on a chair still cause pain. Need time to get better.

Keto is going really good, macros around 50:50-250 proteins around 100 fat. Two times a day 6 eggs- once postworkout and before bed. If i have fattier meat i do not add any extra fat. If meat is lean then spoon of natural Pb or almonds. One avocado and two protein shakes and that is it , plus veggies of course. 50 gram whey with 10 gram mct postworkout and one hour after eggs. Training fasted with bcaa before and after. Taste wise- best diet ever. I dont see myself eating carbs ever. Few weeks and my back should be ok according to doctors. Painkillers help a lot.
