To the Veterans, How am I doing?
Max out and CD, the veterans of the forum - Appreciate if you guys have comments! I’m trying to go at this as hard as possible. I believe it is wise to seek help from those who have done it.
As a reminder, I am PSSD.
I’ll try to keep this message as brief as possible as to not waste your time, but I am simply wondering to how I am going about applying the protocol, as I believe there are many things to be added, as well as some questions I have.
At the moment, this is what I have done:
- I started with a 7-day water fast, felt pretty much cured for a couple of days, only to ruin it with lots of gluten for around 2 months. I did another 7-day juice cleanse, unfortunately the juice may have been too chunky. I’ve already planned a third cleanse around November or December, when I can get time off of school. I think I started in the wrong foot here. I was unable to kick my nicotine addiction, but plan to kick that habit off over the next few months, as I prepare for my third cleanse.
Anyways, here’s my routine:
- Upon waking up at 9AM, I hit the cold showers (right now doing pretty much fully cold), do some breathing exercises while in there, skinbrushing. Shampoo, body wash all sourced from TMO.
Here, I want to apply around 10mg of Zinc and 2.5mg of B6 (P5P) for my hair. I know this sounds stupid, but I love my hair. A lot. I got a lot of success with women from an early age because of my hair.
- Take daily herb, first dose of Spirulina/Chlorella (500mg), and Pine Pollen (1/2 teaspoon). I plan to add a Collagen powder into a mixture of hot water, honey, and lemon. I just bought this mixture today from Vital Proteins.
Herbs, I’m currently rotating:
1) Pine Pollen Daily
2) Cistanche
3) Cordyceps
4) He Shou Wou
5) Black Ant
6) Schisandra
7) Goji
8) Shilijat
Bought, and will add to this cycle: Black Maca, Rhodiola, Royal Jelly, Rhodiola, Pine Pollen Tincture,
Iodine (not sure if this is a good source as the one listed on TMO was out of stock).
- Breakfast: The same everyday:
1) 5 Eggs (omelette on a frying pan), Spinach, Kale, White Mushrooms, Cherry Tomatoes.
2) Some Greek Yogurt and 4-5 Strawberries.
3) One cup of almond milk.
4) A Can of Tuna and Olive Oil. (Rio Mare brand).
5) Banana.
- Core exercise. I do 15 minutes of flexibility work, planks, glute bridges, clamshells, and side planks. This takes around 30-40 minutes in total.
- Take second dose of daily herb and pine pollen, and second dose of Chlorella/Spirulina (500mg for a total on these supplements). As well as 2000IU Vitamin D3 and 120mcg of Vitamin K2.
- Lunch: My lunch always includes one chicken breast, and a variety of these vegetables:
1) Broccoli
2) Cauliflower
3) Asparagus
4) Brussel Sprouts
5) White Onions
6) Tomateos (Cherry)
7) Spinach, in addition to these, white mushrooms.
Along with Grass-Fed Organic Yogurt.
3 days a week (Monday - Wednesday - Friday), I consume a green shake of celery and carrots.
On Saturday, I make bone broth from Kettle and Fire in addition to lunch.
- Hit the weights or on Sunday, sprint, and rest on Wednesday/Saturday. I have a four-day split:
1) Chest/Triceps
2) Back/Biceps
3) Legs
4) Shoulders + 1 Bicep (Hammer Curl) + 1 Tricep (Dips)
Foam rolling on weight lifting days. This takes typically around 20 minutes.
- Dinner:
Ground Beef or Some sort of steak (all of this, including the vegetables, is as organic as possible and is grass fed. It’s quite expensive though. I season my food only with Organic Paprika, Organic Onion and Garlic Powder. Sometimes I add in black pepper and oregano leaves (not organic, couldn’t find one that is).
I also eat a variety of the vegetables I’ve listed, as well as grass-fed organic yogurt.
I also make this smoothie, daily:
- 1-2 cups of Coconut Milk
- A handful of blue berries.
- One Banana.
- 2 Avocados.
- 20-25 Almonds.
- One scoop of whey protein (from a reliable Canadian source, it’s grass-fed and organic).
- Hit the cold shower again for around 5 minutes. I don’t skin brush here, as I do it in the morning. I just apply body wash (from Health Ranger store website).
- Take the Magnesium supplement dosed at around 2 teaspoons. From the Calm brand, linked by CD. (this helps me a lot, but I don’t rotate sleep supplements, as I find this to be perfectly healing and I never had much of a problem with sleep in the first place).
- I want to start meditating at this time, towards the end of the day for 20 minutes or so (around 11:30pm).
- I’m asleep by 12AM, and ready to hit the cold showers by 9:30 AM.
Things I’m adding:
- Just ordered Lions Mane and Bacopa from LEH. I also bought Gotu Kola from a local health store. How should I rotate these? I can’t seem to find anything written about them on TMO. Max out takes them daily, but CD doesn’t - what’s the consensus?
Is this good enough?
Lion’s Mane: Every Other Day
Bacopa and Gotu Kola: 3 times a week, thinking switching between them like Chlorella/Spirulina, or one week this and one week and that. How does that sound?
- Giving more importance to meditation.
-Talking to girls more.
- Only thing I am slipping up on is masturbation. I want to do it once every 2 weeks. I don’t use porn anymore.
That’s about it. I hope I didn’t miss anything. Please please let me know if there’s anything I can add!!
