Just take a week recovery. Continue TSPA as normal and don’t do any cardio.

Point of interest… rhubarb is actually a vegetable. So that’s partly why its net carb count is so low. That’s what’s so great about it– it counts as a vegetable, so if you’re doing Atkins, it helps with the net veggie carb total! And if you nuke it up with some splenda-sweetened strawberry syrup and top with whipped cream, you have low-carb rhubarb fool… hurrah!! 🙂

hey musclehackers, on my carb up days i feel insanely tired and fall asleep after about every meal is this normal? I feel like shit on carb days but the results are excellent. And also my workout weights are going up really fast is this a good thing? for example my squat has gone from 60kg-100kg,deadlift from 60kg to 110,bench from 50kg-75kg within a 5-6 week period ( I use Reactiv supplements @ http://www….. *best supplements ive ever used check it out CHEAP! and EFFECTIVE!)
am I gaining strength too fast? and inviting injury by overloading too quickly? I feel great no joint pain or anything.

I’ve read that fructose doesnt cause an insulin response unlike glucose…if thats the case, wouldnt it be ok to eat plenty of fruits – high carb and low ?

@ Fabian. Yes you can enjoy your grapefruit Fabian. Glad I’ve been able to help.

@ Carol. Thanks Carol for the very kind comments. You’re right about that myth. It’s crazy how people think their on a low-carb diet but it’s really something they’ve made up themselves i.e. they eat meat, eggs and cheese only. No veggies? No Fruit? They’ve got it all wrong. Good to hear from you again Carol.

The ‘no fruit’ on low carb myth is probably on of the biggest and worst. I’ve met people who ‘thought’ they were doing low carb – almost always a program of their own design – and had foregone fruit and veggies for weeks.

Mark, your site is an excellent resource for information. Keep up the valuable work.

Great post!! This subject has always been a big concern of mine. I love my grapefruit, and you’ve put my guilty conscious to rest.
