Also, how many calories per day do I need when I am cutting?

I am 5'5" 166 lbs

Get a pair of body fat calipers, or get an underwater bodyfat test done at your local university athletics department.






Do as many reps as you can. Let your body be the judge.

Read the keto meal plan. You basically have to eat meats, oils, some dairy, and green veggies only.




1,500 cals on non-workout days, and 2,000 on workout days.

It went decent. I think I need to get up earlier prior to it next time. Test was at 9am, and I got up at 6:20. I still wasn't fully functioning I think.

I was also really nervous during the beginning of the test. I am definitely going to retake it again in December.

Is the underwater bodyfat test done free at the University?

I read the keto meal plan, it seems to be impossible to do here at the University. Everything has carbs that they serve.

It depends on the university. Usually, if you are a student there, it is free.

You can remove carbs from what you eat. Example, chicken, steak, turkey, fish, beef, eggs, etc. are all good sources of protein.

However, if you don't want to try and modify your meals....you need to keep your calories to 1,500 on non-workout days, and 2,000 on workout days.

Hey Rayor, haven't chatted with you in a while. How are you?

Everything is good, however quite busy. Before you know it, I'll be into my Residency at UM.

Btw what are your thoughts on Madcow and 5/3/1?

And apparently, you're not suppose to have an arched back while incline benching? Is this true?

So I've started running again, but my ankles and lower calves can't handle it. I read that this is typical. I was fine for a week, but now my ankles have that lingering ache after i run. I'm RICEing them (rest, ice, compression, elevation) but that only does so much.

I know I need new shoes, but aside from that, should I just keep running and my ligaments and tendons will eventually catch up and get used to it? Or should I start getting my cardio in some other way? I have an exercise bike and that's about the only exercise equipment I have.

Let me know any suggestions

Thanks!

Edit: Also, my girlfriend ran with me. She's a college basketball player used to sprint running. I run about 2 1/2 miles a day. Her ribs took it BAD the first day and the same the second, so now she won't run with me. How does she prevent this? She's in good shape, 5'3 ~120 pounds and all muscle minus she can almost outlift me LOL. Serious question, if she has massive boobs could that put stress on her ribs or back while she runs? Cuz they're double d's and she's got a pretty petite build, though muscular and athletic
