Hello!
I just thought I'd add my info as others may be interested in different possibilities. I do long-course triathlons and have been operating some sort of training plan consistently for the past few years. A week looks something like this:
Monday: 60-min hard bike ride, 15-min run
Tuesday: 1:15 Run
Wednesday: 2,500 - 3,000 yd swim
Thursday: Rest day
Friday: 3:00 ride, :30 Easy run
Saturday: 2:30 Easy Run
Sunday: 2,500 - 3,000 yd swim
I am on day 10 of P2 and have lost 18 of the 29 pounds I want to lose and haven't changed my workouts a bit. I feel absolutely fantastic. I have no weakness (that wasn't there before lol), fatigue, or dizziness. I don't feel depleted at all. I'll update if anything changes.
Blessings,
Nicole
Started P2 on 11/12/22 with 37 to lose to get back to my goal weight.
D12 P2 -- -15.6
------history-------
R1 start 9/1/15, 30-day round, -34
R2 start 11/26/15, 30-day round, -30 (pneumonia, bronchitis, and a 13-day PI)
R3 start 3/9/16, 31-day round, -30
91 days of HCG = 94 lbs lost, for a total of over 100 pounds gone and GOAL REACHED!!
Glad you are doing so well, writermama!
This is a great report, and underscores what the protocol tells us: that you will be able to continue any activities you are used to doing before starting the protocol. So even those expending tremendous amounts of energy will be able to continue that, even if you are a lumber jack or a training for a triathelon.

That's a great point and does prove true here. I'm so glad!

Thanks so much for your share! Did you stick to the original protocol of 500 cals a day or did you up your protein at all?
Thanks!

Hi. I like to train endurance by running on an ellipsoid or stepper, it is much safer than running on asphalt - less stress on the joints. I recommend reading this article because I hope it helps you learn something new about training and expand the load pool you have.
I thought that if you exercised, you could end up gaining. I have been avoiding exercise for this very reason during P2.
Its fine to continue any activities/exercise you were already doing before P2. Its starting something new that is discouraged. You wont' have the endurance for it, and you can have gains because of the inflammation it causes. You really can't build extra muscle during P2 because the protein levels are not sufficient for that.
