Dave Palumbo Diet

[07Zixsix]

Just for reference is anyone doing anything different with their workouts that is showing substancial gains...

I used to be a moderately big guy... never really had a great physique but lots of strenght... Since then I've let my self go a bit and jacked back up to 225 and around 22%bf...

I basically want to get back down to the 180 mark and just look cut and have a good physique...

My workout routine is as follows for at least the first couple weeks...
Cardio Every day for at least 40 mins

1 and 5: Back and Bis:
3 Exercises for each group of 3-4 sets
15-20 mins of Abs

2 and 6: Chest and Tricepts:
3 Exercises for each group of 3-4 sets
15-20 mins of Abs

3: Shoulders Legs
3 Exercises for each group of 3-4 sets

4 and 7: Day off: Cardio only (Soccer) on Day 4

No indirect source of carbs means what ? No carb-based food ? It's okay if it's a small amount naturally ?

Also for the salmon meal, is it okay to fry up some ground beef instead ? I'm 17 with a shitty part time job, I can't afford to buy salmon all the time to eat once a day.

Why does the diet get hard the last 4-6 weeks? I thought the Macro's stayed the same for the whole 16 weeks.

I gets harder because your body is telling you "its enough"(a question of survival so to speak)..and therefore your hunger is more apparent..and the weight loss comes to a halt practically until you change things up again.At that stage it usually means dropping calories..

The easiest way to follow DP's template is to get it from the horse's mouth. Check out his thread on rxmuscle. Where this board is helpful is when it comes time to tweak the exercise, diet, clen or just generally be supportive. Diets are not static (rats).

Have you ever worked with dave?

His diet gets harder in the less 4-6 weeks because he pulls fats and implements protein/veggie days only and at times has you doing 3 hrs of cardio/day + Posing
