1 1/3 C. whole wheat flour 1 C. Splenda 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 2 egg whites 1 cup of mashed banana (best if really ripe) 1/5 cup water 1/4 cup apple unsweetened applesauce 3 scoops vanallia whey 1/4 cup raisins 1. preheat oven to 180 C (350 F) 2. mix all ingreadients together mix really well untill no chunks of protein powder are in there. pour in a greased loaf pan. 3. bake for 50 to 55 min. or untill a tooth pick can be stabbed in middle loaf and comes out clean. Some notes: * I couldn't get my hands on unsweetened apple sauce so just used regular. * Didn't have any cinamon and had to use cinamon sugar. * Used choc powder as I didnt have vanilla. Mine came out a bit sweet due to the above, but all in all it tastes really good. Per loaf: Calories: 1177 Fat: 11 g. Carbs: 205.9 g. Protein: 90.4 | ||

If it's giving you pain doing basic things like bending or sneezing, I'd see a physio asap. That's not sciatic (sciatic nerve runs from the sacral spine through the gluteal area). If it was sciatic he would have shooting pain down the butt and into the leg. It's probably either an SI joint problem or something like a herniated disc and/or bulging disc. If you can I would get to an orthopedic doctor to check it out and potentially get an MRI. Personally, I don't think it's worth it to risk the health of your back. | ||

I must confess to not truly understanding the 'cutting diet' - I think for my size/weight I am allowed 2600 calories to maintain weight (though this seems really high), so with a 700 calorie daily deficit, I should lose about 1kg of fat/week? To anyone who can correct my ignorance, thanks ![]() supposedly i maintain weight at ~2600 but aswell to me this seems crazy since i havent had a breakfast for like 100 years, and seldom eat lunch, and seemed to be maintaining. but whatever. you should lose like 1.4lb not 1kg but thats probably a massive approximation. im just looking forward to waiting another 3 days and buying some scales to weigh myself, see if its started to work at all!!! | ||

Yeah the rehab guy told me also that it's not sciatic. I have an appointment with him tomorrow, so let's see what happens. | ||

![]() I did get my body fat % measured via scaliper, at 8.1% - I know these things aren't 100% correct, but it is better than what the electric scales were giving me. So far, ive had 80grams of protein and 45 grams of carb this morning...ive been a little naughty I suppose. Ill try to keep under 100grams of carb for the day. Does anyone know how to calculate how few grams of carb are required to reach ketosis for an individual? I havent lost any weight/cm yet, so im wondering when this diet will kick into effect ![]() Otherwise, im mixing up the gym from now on with a complete new workout regime, tring to plateau bust, etc etc. Monday, Chest and Back flat bench press, 4x65kg, 6x60kg, 8x55kg, 2x10x50kg (5 sets) decline bench press, 2x8x55kg (2 sets) incline bench press, 3x10x50kg (3 sets) bent over rows, 2x4x55kg, 2x6x50kg, 10x45kg (5 sets) one hand barbell rows, 3x10x25kg (3 sets each hand, never done this before so starting light) lat pull down, 6 reps, 8 reps, 12 reps, all 2nd weight from the bottom (not sure how much ![]() Wednesday, Biceps and Triceps cable bicep curl + barbell bicep curl superset; 4 supersets, 4x 3rd weight from the top for cable curl, 12x30kg barbell bicep curl preacher curls, 4x12.5kg, 8x10kg, 12,7.5kg (each hand, 3 sets) tricep pull downs, 4x8x4th from the top (4 sets) close grip bench press, 2x6x30kg (2 sets) Friday, Shoulders and Legs push press, 3x4x35kg (3 sets, never done before, so starting light) lateral raises, 2x8x6kg (2 sets) bent over lateral raises, 2x8x6kg (2 sets) lunges, 3x12x7.5kg (3 sets) calf raises, 3x6x10kg (3 sets) might be slightly lighter than I will do next week, just due to unfamiliarity with some of the exercises.

since you're trying to get your body to utilize fat stores for energy you need to deprive it of its normal carbohydrate sources as much as possible and not cheat at all | ||

Age: 19 Height: 5'11 Weight: 148 pounds. Goal: to be able to dunk (how many times have you heard a white guy say this...) >_>. Don't really care about upper body too much, but I do push ups often to make sure my arms don't atrophy. Current vertical (measure by how far my head gets): 1 Legged leap : 28ish inches. 2 legged jump: 22ish inches. I've never done weights before, and really, I'm not sold on them at all for my purposes, but I decided to give them a try so: I've been doing 100 squats in 1 set (regular squats meaning body weight, at full speed), and 100 calf raises in 1 set (full speed/power - eg. lifts me off the ground occasionally.) for three weeks every day, so that when I start doing weights my legs are ready and don't get sore. Also play basketball frequently (in an active, high flying manner XD.) Started going to the gym last week to do weights, at first just played around them to see how much I can do: Leg Press: Can do reps with 220 no problem, but I absolutely can't budge 240 (I know wtf, that shit should be pretty damn easy, it's only fucking leg presses.) Calves: Can do 20 reps with 330-350 pounds, I have a feeling I could probably max out their machine (390,) but I haven't tried. Can anyone with some kind of experience in this, suggest a routine I should do at the gym, that will improve my vertical? For some reason my quads are ridiculously weak, I have a feeling it may not only be muscles but it may be the ligaments, because I think I feel a strain when I try to push 240 (and can't.) From what I've read/heard I need to do static exercises to strengthen the ligaments, can anyone suggest any? Would just pushing as hard as I can against a weight I can't budge for x seconds qualify? etc etc. Help anyone? None of the stuff he did in the video seems too out of the ordinary, it's probably the volume of his training that makes it intense. As for something super demanding, get a friend you can grapple against that's pretty strong, but similar weight to yours, I've been doing that occasionally in my suite here, and it's really really demanding on the core, arms, and just about everything (beware of rugburn though =P if you don't have a good.) If you didn't have any experience with submissions I don't suggest you try those as it can result in injuries (but I guess you can always try if you want to just be careful,) but even straight up free-wrestling with no subs/chokes just for control of position is incredibly fun, but also really demanding on like all the muscles in your body. | ||
