Interesting you bring that up. There actually is no exact science for this, as individual preference remains key. I remember mixing a carton (4oz) of heavy cream with 2 scoops of whey protein, and another 4 oz of water - the taste was unbelievable, but the calories were around 1,600 or so. In general I just through a couple tbsp of heavy cream into my shake when on keto to hit the fat macros, not for the flavor. Although, even that small amount tastes great in a shake compared to just water by itself.

The best keto shakes in my opinion are:

NOW! Whey Isolate (chocolate)
2-4 tbsp heavy cream
8 oz water (approx)
1 tbsp peanut butter
4 strawberries (medium)
6 blueberries
Ice Cubes


Blend everything together for a fairly thick shake, which tastes amazing and is still under 4g of carbs.


Been trying different things and hit the lottery today. Made probably the best shake I've had in a long time.

¤ 8oz Coconut Milk
¤ 4 tbsp Heavy Cream
¤ 2 Scoops French Vanilla Protein
¤ 1 tbsp Unsweetened Coco Powder
¤ 1 cup Ice

Nice and creamy, amazing flavor, and a little milkshakey.

474 calories
27g fat
49g protein
5g carbs (2g fiber)

* On a side note, what should be a normal amount of weightloss per week on keto? Trying to decide if 15 to 20 lbs by June 12th is a reasonable goal.

Hi Ray,

thoughts on combining concepts of IF with keto macro distribution (70fat/25protein/5>carb)?

Thanks man, I remember doing the regular 3-1 hypertrophy plan before. Definitely liked it alot last time I did it.

I know it's kind of hard, but could you make a guess as to my current BF%?

Also, on the regular 3-1 hypertrophy workout, for the third and fourth and fifth set:

3rd set - Is it 85% 1RM, then 5-10 sec later (take off all weight) and rep the barbell until exhaustion?
4th set - same as third including bench the empty barbell until exhaustion, then do the 5th set? Or for the 4th - 85% 1RM to exhaustion then cut weight in half and go right into the 5th set.

Thanks man appreciate your help!



Just from eyeballing it, I'd say that it appears to be around the 12% area.

edit:


3rd set is 85% 1RM, take 5-10 seconds rest, then do 85% 1RM again until failure
4th set is to wait 1 minute after completion of the 3rd set, and repeat the 3rd set exactly
5th set is WITHOUT resting from the 4th set, cut the weight in half, and go until failure *You can also cut in half again when you fail, and do another failure series in this set*

Hey what up raynor was wondering if you could hook me up with a stretching/foam rolling routine from the bottom of the feet up and that takes30-45 min. I have a lacross ball, foot roller and foam roller available to me. I want to start incorporating this first thing in he morning just


This is the one thing that I will refer you somewhere else for. The reason is because I simply don't have the time to record a video or take pictures. Stretches are very unique in the sense that you really need to be shown, rather than told, what to do, especially when dealing with a foam roller.

That being said:

tracking macros 2,127 calroies 293carbs 133protein 47fat and doing push pull legs routine do you think i will drop some lb at estimated 30bf


Well, it depends. What is your current height/weight/bf%? Also, what kind of PPL workout are you doing?

How is your activity level for the rest of the day?

You must realize that you are going to have to obviously burn more calories than you take in. That being said, your resting BMR should be calculated, then all exercise cals should be added to that for a total caloric expenditure. Then you must eat at LEAST 500 cals less than that per day in order to lose 1lb of fat per week (along with around .5-1 lbs of water).

hey man thanks a lot but i think you forgot to finish your statement at the end you just said "In addition to the diet, you will want to"

also is there anything that i can substitute eggs with? i can maybe eat 1 before they make me want to puke (when i lived with on my friends farm we basically ate eggs for breakfast all year and ever since then i just can't eat them anymore. kinda like when i got drunk on so many jello shots that jello also makes me feel sick now)


lol wow...looks like I must've walked away, came back and submitted. I apologize for that.

You will want to look into certain supplements, like GAT Jet Fuel, L-Carnitine, and R-ALA which can assist with fat burning when used correctly.

Yes, you can substitute eggs with any lean protein. So have a protein shake, chicken, turkey, ham, fish, etc.

Oh one more thing, what's the rest period after finishing 1 lift and starting a different one? And should they be performed in the order that they're listed in?


Yes, perform them in the order listed. You should take at least 2 minutes between exercises to regain your composure to some degree.

Ray.

BCAAs before fasted cardio, but also pre-workout?


Also trying to get into a new lifting routine for the summer and for cutting.. Looking for a 5 or 6 day split.



Yes, Before, DURING, and After is preferred. Every 45 mins during (so Pre, then every 45 mins during, then PWO shake). Both for cardio AND weights.

You want a regular 5-6 day cutting program? Any specifics?

Lol sorry for spamming the topic, but it also says in the workout plan

'Drink casein shake or eat cottage cheese before bed to sustain metabolism throughout the night.'

Is this still alright to do, even though I'm doing IF and it's outside my eating time window normally?


It's OK to do, it won't negatively affect the IF. It's also not required on IF either.
