Well here I go......
After lackluster results in the gym doing a "routine" program, I have decided to step up and try Body for Life starting Monday. I like the idea of shorter workout days, even though in exchange you are going 6 days per week.
So I will let you all know how I feel after next week. I didn't buy the book, but read every thread on teh sticky above, and have completely read the BFL website. I also downloaded all the free daily spreadsheets from the site.
I am going with a modified low carb as my nutrition. Will be shooting for around 2,300 calories, 55 carbs, 170 grams of protein. Is that enough protein? Or should I supplement with EVEN MORE protein powder? I have calculated my LBM to be around 196 lbs. I had read the guidelines of 1 g per lb of LBM, but that seems almost impossible for somebody my size to reach. That and eating 6 times per day will be my biggest challange.
Also, I have read where people do the protein shakes in yogurt.....that taste pretty good? because I tried both the glutamine and shake mix in water, and can barely stand the stuff. I think I will try yogurt to help me get it down.
