Day 4
Not much to tell today…………….
Today was my 4th day low carb. The book only recommended 3 consecutive days but my first day was a bit of a halfway house (tube of fruit pastilles after the gym at 7am). So today was a bit of improvisation. Tomorrow is my refeed day so I am doing a heavy workout. I took the decision to leave the Tabata workout in the evening to give me a little more recovery for the heavy one tomorrow. I also didn’t think it’d be a good idea doing a heavy workout both fasted and fully carb depleted. So I broke the low carb around 8pm to get some glycogen back in the system.
SUPPS
No workout supps today
Throughout day (randomly when I remember but usually around meals)
Fish Oil x 20g (±1g for every % bodyfat)

TORTURE TIME

FEASTING!
Doing this blog is starting to take a bit of time so I’m trying to streamline, so including my printout from MyNetDiary. As I mentioned earlier I broke the low-carb protocol around 8pm with some chicken fried rice (home-made), some fruit and a lil’ mini cheesecake with the mix from the cheesecake I made (will post pic tomorrow). Below is my food for the day but in summary………
Lunch
Omelette filled with cottage cheese
