The Velocity diet - why it works (w/o buying biotest supplements)

WANNA LOSE 20 LBS in 28 DAYS ?

Everyone has heard of the Velocity diet by Chris Shuggart, but no one ever talks of the reason it really works. Just google , 'Velocity diet' and you can see the program.It's one of the most effective diet in existence, possibly one the breakthrough diets. In the V-diet, Chris has advocated everyone to buy Biotest supplements, but no one ever discussed whether they can be replaced by cheaper supplements.

Firstly , we should list out of all the reasons and science behind the V-diet :

1) Simply put, V diet restricts your caloric intake by giving you fixed amount of shakes and most fat loss participators fail to calculate your caloric intake (either too little or too much). THIS IS THE BOMB, Calories in less than calories out and you get fat loss.

2) Secondly, it's simple. Just mix up and drink.

3) You measure weekly - important to see progress for motivation.

4) Chris advocates a clean meal weekly to spike your metabolism. Similar to cheating diet.

5) Chris deals with hunger pangs - his protein shake is a mix of fast and slow protein and fibers.

6) It's a low carb diet, not a no carb diet, you don't deal with ketosis.

Eager to save on the supplements ? You can save a lot ordering online, or replacing them. Just study biotest supplement calories and compare them with the replacement.
Here are a list of things that you can use to replace V-diet's supplements

1) For metabolic drive low carb protein -> replace with a mix of ON Whey and Casein or just use a protein mix that contains whey and casein (the mix has to be optimal, or at least 40% casein). Note that, whey alone doesn't work because it's a fast protein, you'll get hungry.

2) For flameout -> just use normal fish oil

3) For HOTROX -> use clenbutrol or USP labs OEP ( OXY ELITE PRO) , not really needed actually even Chris said it's optional.

4) For Surge post workout -> just use whey (or BCAAs powder) , sugar and creatine, seriously you don't need this for the program, because all the exercises you do are light walk, light weights.
I think Chris is cheating us on this, but only this part.

5) For BIOTEST SUPER FOOD/fiber choice tablets -> just use metamucil (sugar free) coupled with antioxidants. You need fibers and antioxidants to flush and combat the oxidizing effects of fat loss , do not forgo this.

6) milled flax seed -> it's not that hard to find, don't replace

7) natural nut butter -> no need to replace

The main highlight of this program is its simplicity, it's too simple for you to even ask questions about. Although if you replace it, you have to make some calculations and comparations to the real supplement, I believe the cost savings is worth it. The whole program is outlined by Chris go to his site and study it :

Not full doesn't mean hungry EF

So basically, low carb is the bomb for us (easy fatties for short EFs). EFs are probably the gene that will survive the bad harvests, shortages of food. EFs are usually fat, and even when you get to the ideal body size, you get back fat easily. For short, our body systems are kinda different from others. We are more efficient at using carbs than the other gene types, being efficient means we have more glucose from our meals,which gets converted to fats eventually.

So how do we counter this EF body system, by eating low carb.

1) Change your eating habits to low carb or slow (low GI) carbs

2) Learn to understand hunger, and avoid carb highs (gives you the full feeling)- only eat when you are hungry

3) Be more active (move around more often in your office) or better yet start exercizing more often

4) Make friends with diabetics and follow their diet, buy their snacks and drinks.

5) Avoid caffeine-mess up with your sugar levels

6) Build muscles. Only time you should go high carb or medium carb is when you build muscles
