I too have had success, and fosty is absolutley correct. The carb up is extremely important. I dropped alot of weight, but felt very flat, and strength decreased quite a bit

anyone else have any success or failure with the CKD?

thanks man thats not a bod idea. its kinda like a carb load every 3 or 4 days huh. anyone else have anything to say bout it?

The key to good workouts on the CKD (in my experience, at least) is to a. make sure you take full advantage of the carb-up by not doing any exercise the day of prior to your first workout after the carb-up and b. use stimulants (ephedrine and caffeine or yohimbine and caffeine) to energize subsequent workouts throughout the week.
