Day 3
Day 3:
meal one: 3 egg omelette, .5 bell pepper, cup mushrooms, slice cheese
meal two: 3 hard boiled eggs, 3x 3-inch cubes of cheddar, 1 cup cottage cheese, .5 tomato, .5 bell pepper, 1c watermelon, 1c canteloupe
meal 3: 6oz chicken breast, 1c broccoli
meal 4: 6oz chicken breast, 1c broccoli
+2x 5g creatine, 6g fish oil
Macros: 193g Protein (45%), 83.5g Fat (45%), 57.5g Carbs (12%) with 10g fibre. Fibre's a little lower than I like, but I guess it's expected with the low cals/carbs.
cals will be around 1700 because of the melon... no biggie tho, some LISS post-training will take care of it.

okay so I'm following Chad Waterbury's summer project... I'm not sure when he put it out, but I looked it over and it seems like a legit approach to fat loss. I've heard nothing but good things about Chad and his program design, and I've always wanted to give his stuff a try so I figured I'd start here. So far though the workouts have been brutal. I'm thinking it's partly because of the low-cals overall, but I'm also currently battling a cold. I know, I know, just a cold.. but it just couldn't have come at a worse time (term papers and finals are around the corner too...)
won't keep me outta the gym though haha.
so yeah as far as progression, Chad says to keep weight constant wile reducing rest periods by 5s in the second week, and then to increase the duration of the HIIT sessions by two minutes in week 2. Weeks 3-4, the exercises change entirely.
for a detailed list of the workout, google "Waterbury Summer Project" and check the t-nation article out.
Waterbury recommends the "T-Dawg 2.0" diet, which is essentially just TNT and targeted nutrition tactics, but low cal. I'm gonna stick with GS. Berardi needs a new name for the diet though... it may as well be called g3T r1ppd ABZ diet, or something equally as lame and gimmicky haha.
