Some on this list may remember the experiment I did a couple three
years ago. Well I am starting the same again. Here are the details:
* Loosely based on Ron Rosedale's diet: moderate protein (about 75
grams of protein per day), high fat (unlimited quality fat), and very
low nonfiber carbohydrate. (Unlike Dr. Rosedale, I am not going to
fret about saturated fat).
* Three weeks 6/21-7/11
* I will be keeping track of my weight, chest, waist, and thigh
circumference as well as bowel movements, general energy levels and
workout performance
* My workouts will consist of the following single set exercises:
unweighted squat, underhand pullup, pushup, and 400 meter run. I may
incorporate a longer run after my body adjusts to ketosis. Maybe in
10 days
A little background, I have been eating rather liberally of late,
even having the occasional wheat flour tortilla, lots of dairy, lots
of sugar. Though I won't offically weigh until tomorrow morning, I
think I'm at about 160 pounds. My ideal weight is probably about
142. I am 5'9"
For reference, my college graduation weight (1989) was 132 pounds. I
have a strong upper body and tend to store fat in my chest and
abdomen (my family is barrel chested). I have a small lower body
except for my thighs, which are more muscular than average
Anyway, with your permission, I'll post every once in while how it's
going...
