What do you do to keep motivated?
Hello all, I've started and stopped several times attempting my second session of dieting, going from a fairly successful first time with Occam's and wanting to improve my results with a second r...
Re: 2 month Update with pics
You did it! Amazing results, truly. Congrats!
Geek to Freak Routine at Home
For anyone who wants to do the Geek to Freak at home instead of joining a gym, here's a version of the exercises you can do with just 2 pairs of du...
Re: How long after starting G2F should I start seeing real results?
Maybe give your body a bit of a break? I jumped from Occam's straight into G2F but have since stopped, and am allowing my body a bit of rest. I still keep the basic routine, more or less, and a sh...
Re: Before and After (4 weeks pics):
Awesome results! And awesome tats!
Re: Before & After
Unreal! A totally different body altogether! If you have any pointers or tips you learned over the course of your diet that contributed to your success (apart from sheer dedication), we'd be delig...

Re: Liver for dinner!
I can't stand liver so I take desiccated liver tablets: all of the benefits, none of that lasting taste.
Re: Before and After! Weeks 1, 4, & 7!
I kind of hate you right now Hehe. Congrats! Those are some flippin' awesome reults! What a sick six pack!
Re: Occam's Changes
Howdy! Can you be more specific about your routine? A common misconception, and one that I fell for myself, was believing that I had to do 7 reps and 7 reps only. Ideally, it is between 7-12, th...
Re: Inspiration!
Your results have been awesome so far, Neo, I have no doubt that you'll achieve all that you need to, and wish you the very best!
Re: 4 weeks in :(
Biggles is spot on, you'll have to let us know what exactly you're doing with this diet and from there we can try our best to help you.
I'm going away this week so I've decided to hold off with G2F until I get back. The last few days have been fine, but I'm not with it 100%. Maybe a...
Re: How important is regularity of the meals?
Howdy! The importance of regularity between meals is that it's the most efficient way of determining effective weight gain/loss. If your meals are irregular, and you decide to weigh yourself, one...
Re: Happy Cheat Day! What's Everyone Eating Today?
I have to cut 50% of my cals out today is all. I'd love really yummy food tho. But no
Re: 6 week picture update
Dang, Neo, you're ripped now! Check out those arms! Congrats!
Re: 6 week picture update:
The second one is taken facing his mirror.
I had a really bad time at the gym yesterday again. AND, according the scales, I lost weight. Hmm. I think I might start all over again in a few da...
Re: Myopic crunch videos?
Just to touch on the vid: the guy isn't doing it quite right (if the book is to be believed). Your arms should always be at the same level as your ears at all times, not in front (as with this vid...
Re: 100 days progress
Wow! Those are some fantastic results! I love success stories, it really motivates me to keep going. Thanks!
Re: How do I alter my profile?
Howdy! There is a blue button at the top right corner of your profile page that says Edit Profile. The alterations you can make are very limited: you can add a bio and upload one picture of yours...
Hey Shane, quick question for ya: I'm taking a protein shake similar to No Xplode (2 scoops, along with the banana, alomond butter etc), 1/2 in the...
Re: Geek to Freak / Occam's Protocol, What the difference?
Occam's is a stepping stone into Geek to Freak. I'm glad I tried Occam's first, as it gave me an idea of what G2F would be like, minus the intense workouts. It also helps your body adjust to such ...
Re: What is my problem?
Howdy! My only pointers would be to cut out the whole eggs, instead just eat the egg whites, it's less fattening. I would also increase your exercise routines - weights, kettlebells, myotic crunc...
I had trouble with some exercies today, so I just left the gym to give myself some extra down time. I managed to gain another 2lb though, which is ...
I had a horrible reaction to Niacin today. My skin began to boil, turned red and blotchy. It was horrible, and very sore! Set me back a bit.
Hey! How long have you been living there? Aye, it's a pain alright, but ya just gotta make do with what you have, I suppose. Of course, if what you...
Re: Before and After 28 days on Occams (with pics):
Thanks, Holly. This site has been a great help already so I will definitely stick around!
Re: How much beans?
If you're not a big fan of beans, I swear by Barlotti beans. They don't have that strong of a taste to them, and after a while, much like with everything else in these diets, you soon build up a t...
Cheers, Neo.
Before and After 28 days on Occams (with pics)
Howdy folks, So my aim was to gain weight, cos I was seriously skinny. I'm still very thin, but not as sickly thin as before, and I feel so much better physically and mentally. I thought it was a...
Had another awesome workout today. I have two more days on this diet, then it's on to G2F!
Re: General annoyances
It's really hard to find some of supplements in Ireland. No Xplode is banned here, for example. Sigh. I have to buy other similarish products that I'm not sure of. Everytime I go to a health shop...
Re: Picture Update!
Great job! Keep being awesome!
Aaaand, I'm pretty sure I LOST weight. Somehow. Ugh. The weighing scales stole 2 euro from me and decided to be a dick and not work.
I'm also preparing for my next diet: Geek to Freak. I'm gonna buy ALL of the supplements, as I didn't do that with Occams. No Xplode is banned here...
My left shoulder is acting up. It gives way a lot quicker than my right. I didn't do some of my usual workouts today for that very reason, but I di...
Re: Where are you from?
You're such a charmer, Shane I'm from Ireland. There's no Hollywood sign here, but there is smog, and LOADS of rain.
Re: Slow carb diet if I don't need or want to lose weight?
Hey Peter, Do you have the book? You could try a moderated version of Occam's, where you basically do the slow carb diet, but instead add whole foods such as rice and potatoes to every meal, exce...
Ack, I've had a sour stomach all day. Not good when you're trying to eat a lot.
I probably had the best workout so far today. I also gained another pound. I really put myself to the test today and worked up a massive sweat and ...
Haha!
First time I've felt bloated in a long time. I had a huge lunch. Also, I figured out just how apt a name the cat VOMIT exercise is. I felt like I w...
Yep, I'm the same. I just use 3 firm pillows for the correct height off the ground and it does me just fine.
