Hello Bodybuilding community,
Welcome to my Velocity DietLog – My guide to dropping body fat and getting LEAN!
I have read a lot about the V-diet(Velocity diet) by T-Nation and I am fully aware of the controversial views upon a 'shake only' diet. I know full well that:
a) I will get all the nutrients/minerals I need to function in a daily basis.
b) I will get enough protein to keep mass
c) it is a brutal way of losing body fat
d) the whole 'when you get off the diet' arguments. Tome it is total BS, that is my own opinion, so shoot me down as you will.
Goals for the Velocity Diet:
1) Drop Body-Fat to below 12%
2) Offset bad eating habits/cravings
3) I have found that not many Velocity Diet Logs have been completed – so this one will be.
Training: (5 day split – 10 Minutes HIIT at the start and Abs at the end)
Monday - Chest
Tuesday - Back
Wednesday - Legs
Thursday - Shoulders
Friday - Arms
Saturday -off
Sunday - off
Current Strength; (hoping to not lose any strength during the 28 days)
Bench (DBs) - 50kg each arm.
Weighted Pull Ups - 16kg- 8,6,5 reps
Squats - 120kg
Military Press - 65kg
Weighted Dips - 35 kg - 3x8
Now that is a short description of what I am doing training wise, and why I have decided to do the Velocity Diet.
Nutrition; T-nations Biotest supplements cost a staggering $423, and I have got the equivalents of their products. It cost me £120 (pounds) to get similar products. (20% OFF)
The following is what I have bought: (photo attached)
-Flax Seed Powder (soluble and insoluble fiber - essential fatty acids)
-L Leucine (Essential amino acid - 500g
-Omega 3 Liquid -Thermopure(caffeine supplement)
-Inulin (fibre supplement)
-Peanut Butter
-Micellar Casein (Slow release protein)
-Superfood XS (greens, antioxidants, veggies etc)
The new version of Velocity Diet allows me to have one 'Healthy Solid Meal'- 1 cup of Quinoa, 1 Chicken breast and 1 cup of green vegetables.
I will consume 5 shakes a day. 8am, 11am, 2pm, 5pm, HSM - 8PM, 11pm (along with one spoonful of peanut butter).
My daily macros will be:
• Protein: 190g
• Carbs: 144g
• Calories: 1551
• Fat: 29g
I will be posting my results, measurements, and photos, during and at the end.
Hope to get some support during the diet,alongside motivating others to follow in my footsteps.
