Road to the Canadian Nationals 2019 - 1 Week Out

We are going to be starting "Peak Week" tomorrow but to be honest most of the hard work is already done and moving into Peak Week is just really all about making sure to keep the calories low and the exercise high to drop those last couple of pounds. If you need to lose more that a couple more pounds by now it's too late!

In this Road to the Canadian Nationals 2019 - 1 Week Out video I talk about my InBody Body Composition body fat test where I am currently sitting just over 6% body fat. I should be able to take this down to right around 5% by show day, maybe even a bit lower? And as per usual I do have an update of my Physique with some more tanning booth posing. I talk about some other stuff but perhaps you should watch my YouTube video to find out more...

Road to the Canadian Nationals 2019 - Carb Refeed Day

This Monday which is tomorrow as I type, I will begin my ultra low carb high protein diet that will consist of a lot of white fish, eggs, high fibre vegetables and a little bit of chicken. But this video isn't about tomorrow it's about today and what I will be eating which may seem a bit unconventional.

The main idea for today and a to some degree yesterday was to bring up my carbs for a kind of carb refeed for a few reasons. Reason number one is to see how my body reacts to the carbs, this will help me figure out how many carbs to add in when I do carb up for the GNC / ALLMAX Canadian National Pro Qualifier about 10 days from now.

Reason number two is to give my metabolism a little boast before I get into the really hard dieting and cutting, loading up on your carbs for a couple days can help jump start your metabolism especially if you have been under calorie for a while.

And reason number three, well just because carbs taste really good and getting some of my carb cravings out of my system again so I can focus on my rather strict diet over the next couple of weeks.

Join me as I show you what as day of carb refeeding looks like for me!
