The MilkMan Delivers: Beyond

In all seriousnessness.. with the building the monolith diet, Jim goes on about how that is what he has his athletes doing. But as a natty lifter, do you think that the food is a little too much? Assuming most of his guy's are supplementing vitamin S.

I think with the addition of the hard conditioning that the calories *may* manage themselves.

I'm a lazy sod.

He (Jim) hasn't really taken into consideration one's height, weight etc.. Now I know the activity levels are very high and the calorie expenditure is massive, and the programme is about performance not what the scales or mirror says etc..
I don't know, I just think that if it fell into the wrong hands then the average gym bro will just end up getting tubby and will get out of breath tying up his shoe laces.

So he says to eat 1.5lbs of red meat. Lets assume its your standard 70/30 ground beef.. that's approx 2250cals. And he got his guys to eat 12 whole eggs a day, that's approx 900-1000 cals (depending on the size of the eggs).
That's about 3150 - 3250 cals a day from the meat and eggs alone, ok that's not too bad but that's not taking into consideration anything else. The carb sources, drinks, this and that.

I'd be surprised if his "guys" are / were supplementing with vitamin S, I kind of assumed they would have been members of his forum and therefore similar to most of us on here (maybe worse). I am not following the diet plan to the letter, I generally have a big breakfast as per my Instagram posts and a big dinner. I don't really have much in the way of lunch, especially when at work, except for some fruit, so I'm probably not hitting the amount of calories that the programme calls for.

Cool, I'm not saying you're gonna put on an excess amount of weight, I'm just saying in general for the average gym bro who doesn't understand the effort that's actually required for a programme such as this.
I can see a difference in your shape from your youtube videos. Your back and shoulders are looking #jakt

I'm jealous of your breakfasts lately

Cardio: Incline treadmill walk: 45 mins. Just over 5km.
 
I need to get myself aboard the cardio train.
I really have to force myself to do it. It's boring - especially when done in the gym. A nice long walk outside would be my preference. I'm hoping to get a trap bar at home to load up and do some farmers walks with before the year is out.

I'd love to buy a set like this...

Then I'd be motivated to do all kinds of strongman type conditioning work.
