hahah well its suppose to shoot back up this weekend, just in time for my weekend training. ouch

Weight this morning was 250lbs. Not too shabby.

I decided to start my carb up today, and have it last through saterday night. Its not going to be a traditional carb up, I'm going to try and center my carbs around workouts, and try to keep my energy levels up. I have to watch when i'm eating, when i do long workouts like these my stomach cramps up, and i cant eat, and if I do i puke, which sucks. if anyone has suggestions to help with that please let me know. The only thing I can do is eat prior to, and that will only hold me for a few hours.

Not sure if this will help, but....
THe only thing I can think that might help is what I do ;Carbs in the morning then,60 mins before a workout I eat two chicken breasts, then 15 mins after that I take 50g maltodextrin with 3g creatine. ABout 20 mins before my workout is done I start drinking another 50g maltodextin/creatine and 42g whey.

I find that I'm not full at all (like if I was to have rice,potatoes or whatever your carb choice is) but I have the perfect amount of energy for a workout. I can go heavy and get a great pump. Than after my post I eat some more within then hr. I don't eat carbs with that one, but if your carbing up you might want to.

That might help your stomach out.

I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"

Thanks Talo, but its a slightly different situation when dealing with martial arts workouts.

Basicly what happens is this, saterday morning I'll wake up about 8, realize i'm late, and throw some cereal or whatever i can in my stomach. Start training at 9, then by 11 or so we take a 20 min break to eat/hydrate ect. then back at it till 3 or so, then another 20min break, then back at it till 5 or so ... and so on. The problem is that anything I eat durring those 20 min breaks tends to want to come back up on me. Last time i puked 3 or 4 times, and ended up with no energy, and was basicly a punching bag by 3pm.

Liquids stay down much better, so I think I'm going to try and mix some shakes up durring those breaks. Just some BCAA's, citruline, beta alanine, and taurine. But hopefully it will keep me going even though Im in a partial fasted state.

I see how fluids would be easier to keep down. That dosen't give you much time to set that food sit.

Since you already know your going to wake up late, why don't you try to get up earlier and have a big breakfast.

I stole it from LINKIN PARK(LP)...I wish I lived in the U.S (or at least back in T.O)so I could go and see them play.

I took off last week from Leviathan due to my shoulder injury, I have a seperated AC joint, and was on pain meds last week so I didnt want to mix shit.

I didnt eat much last week, not by choice, but the meds killed my apetite so I hopefully didnt gain much fat. I wont be able to run for some time with the injury, so I will be switching to the bike. Not much else to update, I am still on celebrex for inflamation and it has a slight pain killer effect, PAL, my dosage of celebrex will be roughly 8 to 9 hrs after my last Leviathan dose, is there any reason I shouldnt be doing it this way?

Its been a while since I updated, I havent been back in the gym since my injury, and its starting to get to me. I will be going today, and hitting the bike and some wieghts, going very light on the upper body, starting to rehab the shldr an such.

I am still sitting at roughly 248lbs (as of last friday), I used lev all last week, I have about a week or so left I think, so I'm gonna run it till its gone. Hopefully I can drop a few more lbs in that time period.

Last nights workout:

Hiit sprints on the stationary bike. 2 min warm up, 10 thirty second "sprints", and a 2 min cool down.

flat bench: 4 sets of 8 x 45lbs

front db raises: 4 sets of 10 x 5lbs
side db raises: 4 sets of 10 x 5lbs

lat pull down: 3 sets of 12 x 40lbs

Halos: 4 sets of 10 x 10lbs

flat fly: 3 sets of 12 x 10lbs

squats: 2 sets of 12 x 45lbs

Overall i was just happy to be in the gym again, my shldr is freakin bad though, I struggled on bench, and just holding the bar on my back for squats was killer. I am not sore today (other then my usual shldr soreness) so I dont think i went overboard.

I revamped my diet since it became shit after the injury. Here is what a new normal day looks like.

7:30am - Lev and other supps
8:30am - Shake (See below)
10:00am - omlete, usually ham or turkey sausage
Noon - 1oz almonds or cashews
1:30pm - salad w/chicken, or chicken/fish with veggies
2:30pm - lev and other supps
4:30pm - 1oz almonds or cashews
6:00pm - Shake
9:00pm - chicken/steak/fish with veggies

My shake
10g BCAA
2g Citruline Malate
1.5g Beta alanine
1g Piracetam
1g taurine
