Diet and strength

5/8/2013

Can you be lean and strong?  Yes.  Seeing as I am sitting at 10% body fat and just hit a 3RM PR in the back squat I say yes.  Here's what I have been doing.  
1.  Gymnastics focusing on  increasing complexity of movement
2.  The basics.  Squat, Dead, Weighted Lunges, Bench. Pull ups, Rows. 2 week waves going for records each week.
3.  Deloading every 4th week(roughly) that means cutting your volume in half every 4th week. 
4.  Sprinting.  2-3 of my workouts each week end with sprints ranging in the 200-800 meter range.
5.  Taking 14-16 hours between dinner and breakfast and making the first half of the day low carb.  I'm talking <30g carbs in that period.  Carbs are put in the evening meal but only if I feel I need them ie have done sprints that day.
6.  BCAA Branched Chain Amino Acids.  Take 10g before my morning fasted workout.


That's it.  Abs are popping.
