16:30 I've done your gut cut twice now, both times worked flawlessly, though the carb/fat content that your spreadsheet gave me ended up being pretty significantly skewed towards fats (I usually eat about 400C and 115F , but with the gut cut I ate closer to 300C and 160F). In the future, would you recommend more cinnamon toast crunch and less almonds to get the macros closer to what I normally eat?
little tidbit, for my protein intake and carb intake during a gut cut i use optimum nutrition serious mass powder. 1230 calories a serving with 250g carbs, works like a treat.
If I usually don’t drink much water, do I need to load to 2 gallons then 2 then 1 then 0.5 or should I reduce how much I load as I typically don’t drink much
i cut from 158 to 148.4 using your gut cut and water loading protocol and also lost 5lbs in the sauna and felt no performance loss. floating around 162 in the morning now but i am eating more than before. was wondering if i should start just a regular nutrition cut to at least drop back down to 158 in the morning or just maintain for now and plan on possibly doing more time in the sauna for my next meet in november. thoughts?
I don't eat a lot of fiber in my diet (yes, I know you said it's not fiber based), very few vegetables and nuts, etc. I still poop 2.5x a day, healthy stool. Would a gut cut be effective for me? I am an Oly lifter and I train at 69kg, but compete in the 67kg class. Where in my training cycle could I test this?
Question (unrelated to the gut - which thank you once again for all the awesome information) I keep twisting right before lock out because my under grip hand hits my thigh (I pull sumo). I used to pull hook, but you and some of your athletes inspired me to pull mix and I like it way better (besides the twisting). I’m 99% positive I’m bracing correctly and I’ve even tried moving my under hand further into the smooth and away. Do you have any videos on the topic or possibly some tips?
@@PRsPerformanceeven if u have a slightly higher sodium diet, would u still maintain or would it be in your best interest to cut back on the intake for the 3 days before weigh ins?
Lol "maybe you're eating crap all the time" 🤣. I eat so much whole foods gut cut really worked for me. Now I'm curious to compare my daily fiber (40g) versus the amount required with the almonds I ate. Calling it a volume food cut makes sense although i originally thought less food volume = less fiber already. I will do the maths.
Considering most people do not get enough fiber, I wouldn’t be surprised if people are eating more fiber or at least equal to their norm with this cut.
Good stuff
Thanks!

It will naturally be higher in fat due to almonds, so that’s fine. But you can adjust if you’d like

Great tip!
Tips for first powerlifting meet? I have a meet in 3 weeks.
Have fun, don't open too heavy, don't cut.
Does one stop taking creatine during gut cut ?
No, don’t stop creatine
If I usually don’t drink much water, do I need to load to 2 gallons then 2 then 1 then 0.5 or should I reduce how much I load as I typically don’t drink much
You should find your average daily liquid intake and use that.
@@PRsPerformanceif I know my daily, how do I know how much to load to water cut properly ?

I would get back down to 158 and cut from there

Gut cut is not based around fiber, so yes you should be fine, unless you are eating junk food for the majority of your diet.
Can I use Chia Seeds?
No
Would there be a strategy for someone who is not normally counting and don’t know their macros and liquid intake?
No, you would need to start tracking
Probably asked a million times: Why not take a laxative similar to that taken prior to a colonoscopy?
Because it’s going to effect water
@ thank you. That makes sense…..

If you didn't have issues pulling hook, I'd go back to that, that is the one of the main reasons to do hook over mixed grip.
You talked about sodium. How much sodium would you suggest per day on this gut cut diet. To avoid the sodium over load.
Around the same daily average that you consume normally
@@PRsPerformanceeven if u have a slightly higher sodium diet, would u still maintain or would it be in your best interest to cut back on the intake for the 3 days before weigh ins?
Can you also cut more like 5-7% by doing the gut cut for 6 days?
No, more isn’t necessarily better.
@@PRsPerformance okey thanks, so when i try to cut around 6-7% is a combination of gut cut & a soft water cut a good choice?
i think kedric kwan is the guy you're referring to regarding to the origins of the gut cut?
No, his name is Reid Reale, as least that is the first place I had heard of it 7 years ago.
TY for Poop 2, the sequel
Haha welcome!
What about egg whites instead of protein shake
No, egg whites would not work
@@PRsPerformance what if I don’t use protein powder
do u online coach for 16y/o ?
I do, but not currently taking on new athletes for the foreseeable future
Good poop tips
It’s what I’m best at
