FT Questions....

Hey Bud!

Firstly, congrats on your progress!

I'll keep the brief so we can stay focused.

1.) The Cruise isn't supposed to be a period of no weight training again. IT's an Intensive Cruise, which for many folks is VERY helpful in making gain. So, while of course, you're free to do things as you will, I suspect it's possible that you've still far from optimized your gains b/c of how you've been doing deloads.

2.) I can't tell if you're doing 14,000kcal / day of cardio NOW (as in yesterday or day) or you've dropped down from that to 50% as much... (I'm hoping you weren't doing 28,000 kcal / day of cardio at some point.

3.) Your response to "why so much cardio" doesn't, as far as I can tell, really justify blasting away with a massive amount of cardio at the start. It might make sense to ease your way in with cardio only (and not change your diet) or simply change your diet and not add cardio (as it seems the issue was the combination of the two?...), but this approach doesn't seem justified and I think you're now seeing the issue....

4.) When (time of day, relative to wt. training) and what cardio - specifically what activity - are you doing?
