2nd diet change

We're getting better at following the diet, but many of you are still not "to the T". It's importnat to understand that I can't tell you what to change, if you aren't consistent. When I say consistent, I mean with nutrition and cardio. I was looking for a two pound drop this week. If you had that, stay the same. If you didn't have to drop anything last week, go back and read my previous post. If you weren't down and need to drop again, here is your second calorie change:
Take all the extra fats (EVOO, PB, Flax)out of your diet from your lifting and cardio days. Leave it in on your rest day. Everything else stays the same.

First diet change

We are now two weeks into the Follow Bill Challenge and just about everyone was down in weight this week. I can't stress to you enough how important it is to follow these directions to the T. I applaud all of you for your honest feedback when I asked how your diet and cardio went. However, I realize that we have work to do.
If you did not follow 100%, you need to stay on the exact same diet/cardio no matter what your results were.
If you did follow the plan 100% here is what you do next.
1.) if you were down 3 or more pounds from your initial weigh in, don't change a thing. Keep it going exactly.
2.) If you gained weighed, stayed the same or lost less than three pounds since the initial weigh in, you are going to cut calories. Let's start with your rest day. Keep your protein and fat the same on that day, but lower your carbs down to no more than your muscle pounds. So if you have 150 pounds of muscle, you would cut your carbs down to 150 on your rest day. Also, on your cardio days, take the peanut butter out of your diet. Keep your weight training days the same. Feel free to email me with questions.
Keep going.

Cardio, Rest days and Cheat meals

In order to finish out your instructions you need to know about your cardio, rest days and cheat meals. Let's start with the easy one first...cheat meals. Plain and simple, no cheat meals or high calories days at all for the first 3 weeks.

Cardio. I want all of you doing max-ot Cardio on your non-lifting days. I'd like it to be done here at the gym if possible. I'm thinking of putting together a max-ot cardio class where 5 of you can do it at the same time with a trainer up there giving you the business. For those that don't know, max-ot cardio is 16 minutes of very intense cardio.

Finally rest day nutrition. On your one rest day, I'd like you to keep your calories the same as your workout days of now. However, you won't have any of your post training starchy carbs or DGC so you will have to replace that with oatmeal, Pro MR/MS or CORE MRP.

One more thing. I want and expect you to follow me to the "T". Even if you don't understand why. However, if you do do something different or mess up, I need you to tell me. Otherwise, I'm going to assume you are doing it perfectly.
