FT e-book Diet questions

[Scott Stevenson]

Dear Scott,

I'm quite since my last post as I have focused on the last weeks of my second blast in Basic Tier 3 which will ends tomorrow after 2nd MR day. I have never tried Tier 1 or 2. I'm very happy with basic 3.

I really liked FT. Really.. FT made me really stronger. My SLD went 275 lbs by 6 reps as it was 132 lbs by 6 reps 11weeks ago. Big surprise for me is my BBRow gone to 200 lbs by 11 reps and 220 lbs 7 reps !

I believe MR makes miracle job in terms of strength gain and muscle gain. I was 84 kg at the beginning and now 87 kg. my legs and upper body grew visually. My family and my gym rats all are aware of this. My back is more thicker and wider same like my chest.

I will have 2 weeks intensive cruise as to the letter in your book. When return to gym I plan to shred little fat from my waist. For this I need your advise for which programme and diet shall I use ? What would be my macros in order to keep these hard earn muscle and strength ?

Thank you in advance

Hey Bud,

Diet is individual - I can't can one for you, but the book as a general approach and I've addressed general dietary strategies here on the board a few times.

I'd simply train as you have been and adjust your diet by reducing kcal on non-training days via a reduction of carbs. Simple as that.

CONGRAT's on the STRENGTH and size gains.

I ask about Tier I b/c it's possible that you may grow (via better recovery) better with less volume. That's worked for more than a few folks.
