If so what was your experience while on said diet?
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Have any of you gone on the anabolic diet or the T-dawg diet?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I'm getting the tiredness too. From what I understand its caused by the body trying to use carbs for energy and their aren't any in there (at least less then 30g/day worth). So hopefully it'll adapt/convert to using fat soon.

Are you still on the anabolic diet, if not how long were you on it for? How long did it take you to get 'fat adapted', ie when did the tiredness go away?wolf116 said:I've been on both diets and absolutely love them, I have more energy and my abs come through.
Downside is the couch crashing after a carb up. And trying to eat your fruit and veggies.

I've heard it takes like 3 weeks. And with my work and lifestyle, there are better options for me.

3 weeks you say? The highest I've seen including from stronglifts says it takes 1-2weeks max. I think I'd quit if it took 3 weeks for me too.. lol (hoping thats seriously not the case).
The biggiest problem I'm running into right now is I didn't realize soooo many things have carbs in them! Some of the beef meals I cooked last week I added bbq sauce, with peanuts, raisins and pineapple. All of those have frekin carbs in them! Even soy sauce has carbs.. sheesh. This is going to take some time to get use to.
I don't want to go crazy counting.. so I eat veggies, (only count as 2g carbs per cup for brocolli and 4g carbs/cup for green beans) and limit myself to only 1 meal from that batch a day (Its anal.. but I also remove/don't eat the pineapple from said batch).

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
I'm not on it anymore because of money issues but I was on the anabolic for about 4 months then went to a Warboss Alex T-dwag variation for 2 months.JohnnyIrish said:Are you still on the anabolic diet, if not how long were you on it for?

I was tired the first month then had more energy then ever. I was mostly adapted at 2 weeks and after a month toilet functions were normal.
Even though I'm not on it now Im definitely still fat adapted. I just can't handle any carbs. I only eat carbs when I know it's OK to have a couch crash.

does HIIT burn fat faster then the anabolic diet or vice versa? maybe even a combination of both?

They both burn fat in different ways.guayaballer said:does HIIT burn fat faster then the anabolic diet or vice versa? maybe even a combination of both?
HIIT speeds up your metabolism while the anabolic diet changes your metabolism to prefer burning fat rather then carbs for energy. Sure one could combine them to burn fat faster.

Interesting.. do you have a link?eldafar said:Stronglifts says combining HIIT with anabolic is not a good idea. HIIT eats up your GI stores like crazy, and since you're pretty much out of GI by mid week you're gonna go catabolic if you do HIIT.
Its just that I've read that while on the anabolic diet people usually report having a lot more energy and enhanced endurance (cardio) as the body now uses fat for fuel (and thus has a surplus of energy as we all have fat on us).
