      you keep low/moderate cardio in off season (ex 3 times per week)? to keep the metabolism going or you just "train hard" and save the cardio for dieting phase

      Yes I do very important. I live a very sedentary lifestyle on the computer 12 hours per day so I go for regular walks. 20mins 2-3x per day

      Cardio should be either REALLY slow easy pace or HIIT> NOT moderate pace

      definitely! slow pace - around 130 - 140 heart rate , and HIIT - that interval must be hard, all out

      at least how i see it. And mix it up, change machines so your body can't adapt

      Yes and no. Some cannot do HIIT> I am one of those that cannot do HITT. It wipes me out in prep but I can do it in off season.

      that's why i hate when people say "this is the best way to do cardio" or HIIT is superior to SS ..BS!
      with clients who are more on ectomorph side, do you give them SS or HIIT ? or you try one and another ?

      great point!

      saw your the pic you posted on IG, not to sound like a "fanboy", but, great work! 10 more days or 2 weeks of diet and you'd be contest ready

      how was your diet for last few weeks?

      Thanks! I just prepped myself for the photo shoot for Universal tomorrow. Then I am reverse dieting. What I was saying is that I could be show ready in two weeks if I dieted for that time period and dropped a few more lbs of fat.

      and legs are looking great (despite the injury)

      what's the initial plan for reverse diet...bring the carbs up in the morning and around workout?

      Actually fats first. Leaving carbs as is for first week. Then going to 45g carbs first 3 meals. Increasing fats back to 20g per meal added fats.

      self control is going to be the key when measuring peanut or almond butter :D

      When I was young, yes. Now I have no issues with it for I truly eat for a purpose now and not as much for the enjoyment.

      that really comes with maturity and building your mindset.... what's your opinion on intra workout nutrition ex. dextrin or vitargo + EAA's ? Sarcev advocates it, Meadows also and some say that good preworkout meal is sufficient

      Intra is good if carbs in the day are low but if you are eating tons of carbs in every meal I do not feel that it would make a difference at all. Dextrin. vitargo, maltodextrin, waxy maize. All close enough not to make a difference

      + i think that body can't really absorb and utilize big intraworkout (50+ carbs)

      i 'd rather just use EAA's + glutamine, bcaa's,creatine and glutamine after and then meal/shake
