------------------------------------------------------------

The story so far... well i don't know what to say lol I'm a hard worker and I'll "fight to they're burger" for what I want. I use to have a knee injury that crippled me for months but it has not been an issue for the past 4 months and have made some ground on my leg strength (just need to make that clear so when you see my strength ratios it doesn't come off as if Im one of those only train upper body guys).
--------------------------------------------

The plan (very much subject to change depending on results):
Week 1: Low carbing for 7-10 days (read somewhere that thib theorized that his first week of low carbing help speed up fixing his fat cells so im going to try it out...i cant miss out on too much in 7 days right?)

Week 2: Set up carb cycling, starting off with...
DAY 1. High carbs (50-75g of carbs at breakfast, Protocol 2, and 30-40g of carbs at 3 other meals)
DAY 2. Low carbs (outside of the protocol keep carbs to a minimum, protocol 1)
DAY 3. Moderate carbs (have around 50-75g of carbs at breakfast, protocol 2, and the rest of the day is no carbs)
DAY 4 is low carbs
Day 5 High Carbs
DAY 6. Low carbs (outside of the protocol keep carbs to a minimum)
DAY 7. Moderate carbs

Week 3: Maintain

Weeks 4-6: Keep adding carbs/ maybe bump up number of moderate and high days inn comparison to low days
Week 7-12: play it by ear

The goal is to do what I must to reach my goals
----------------------------

Supplementation (not counting peri-workout):
15g generic fish oil
Indigo-3G
Flameout
FA3
Power Drive
Kelp
Selenium
Multivitamin
ZMA

Hey kj! Thanks for posting on my log- yep, we sure did make it! I don't know how I could have ridden that roller coaster of trying to get the I3G, for too much longer! I think I was the first call through the day we ordered ours. I will be following your log too- your physique is obviously similar to mine, so we can see what's working for each other, and adjust when necessary. I'd really like to maximize muscle gains while on Indigo, so I'm gonna try and keep carbs higher most days of the week for 2-3 weeks, and see what happens. Wow, you've got all the bells and whistles to train with over there- I'm jealous! Good for you brother- you've got all the tools for the job. Now, it's time for us to do work, huh?

Scary FFB moment for me today...So everyone is eating breakfast and my mom looks over and says "is...is your face getting full again?" she was asking out of fear that im having an allergic reactions to some meds im taking this week to clear up a skin problem. And I panic and go snaps some photos to see if im putting weight back on because the last time she said that to me I was 182 and faaaatt. I couldn't tell if I put on any fat (bloated stomach from the food I ate, and the 64 oz I drank in 20 minutes..). So i weighed myself expected to be around 175ish because of the abovee reasons and wow, i weighed 170.4?

So this leads me to 3 options...
1. I AM having an allergic reaction..
2. I gained fat (im taking photos tomorrow to judge)
3. I am retaining water from a big bump up in fluid consumed and carbs consumed. Yesterday I basically went from drinking 100 oz a day with 150 or less carbs to drinking around 150oz with 300g carbs

any body notice that their retaining any fluid?

And this is going to be my last intense training session for the next one - two weeks. Im deloading, I have been fighting a morning cortisol problem and I figure if 800mg PPS is struggling to do the trick, its a sign from my body that it needs a break.

Several team 1's reported that they gained weight for the first week -> 10 days, then lost all the fat they had gained and then some, and since then have gained only muscle. It seems Indigo has a cumulative effect..

Daily Totals - Same as Yesterdays

Going to drop my carbs to 20-35g Carbs per meal, my insulin sensitivity is dropping off pretty bad, but I am assuming it had to do with the very high intake of carbs, low activity level, and the fact that i hadn't change my insulin site for 3 days (insulin was probably pooling).

Yesterday was just a neural charge day with roughly 150g Carbs, 120g Fat, and 350g Protein? (ouch this was not on purpose!) Im dying during this deload week, watching all of these training spills come up and I cant touch any of it yet! Oh well indigo is definitely starting to work its magic, never have been able to eat this many carbs and not put on a pound of fat
