Phase I not recommended for Athlete?!
| Wed, 01-07-2004 - 5:48pm |
I just read on the web that the Doctor who designed SBD does not recommend phase I for Athletes. I guess this answers my lack of energy and inability to get half my regular performance in the Gym. I m done with my 5th day of Phase I and will check my weight end of the week. However I am curious if anyone knows the breakdown of carbohydrates, protein, and fat in a typical Phase I day.
I know that an active adult needs about 55%- 65% carbohydrates in their daily diet, about 15%-20% protein, and 10%-15% fat.
I doubt this can ever be achieved through SBD phase I. so I guess the point is to have very little workout or none while on phase I. Since phase I is only two weeks that is not a problem for most people.

I live in Big Lake. About 40 miles NW of Mpls/St Paul-between Elk River and Monticello. We moved here from New Hope 12 years ago. Where are you at?

Congrats to you!
Well, time? I work full-time, I'm going to school, I have a hubby and 2 boys, but I MAKE time. I put my work out high up on my priority list. I'm a better person, mom, student, employee, etc. when I'm taking care of myself.
I usually run long on weekend, and early. I'm up and out of the house before 6:30 AM, back home about as everyone is waking. Many times the boys have basketball games at 9, so I get up earlier or run later. I don't miss their sports or any of their school events. I work in the school district so I get off of work early - 3:30 - and usually run after work. It fits in, really.
Good luck, let me know how your training is going!
