GAME READY
SPEED DEMON
Program Objectives
The goal of the training program is to transform you into an ATHLETIC SPEED DEMON. To reach that objective we will focus
on:
− Train the accelerating [front] muscles with SPEED and POWER techniques that don’t involve high muscular trauma
- Train the decelerating [back] muscles with heavy strength techniques including hypertrophy training techniques
− Maximum fat loss. During a Athletic transformation, fat loss comes in two stages... initially you use an industrial crane
(losing a lot of fat, fast) then you finish off with a spoon (losing the last few pounds is a tough job).
− Build some muscle, especially in FAST BOWLING SPECIFIC areas; muscle groups that ARE ESSENTIAL for FAST BOWLERS
It is true that gaining a lot of muscle while losing a lot of fat at the same time is impossible (or very hard to accomplish).
However you can do so for short periods of time when the circumstances are right. With this in mind this program is best
suited for advanced trainers who have about 4-6 weeks to prepare for GAME DAY
When you initially clean your diet up and jack up your training volume/frequency (training stress) you can gain muscle and
lose fat simultaneously because the profound shock placed on the body will force it to build muscle while the energy drain
will lead to fat loss.
Obviously this doesn't work forever; when the body is overstressed or fully adapted this stops working (you will not build
muscle). But it is possible to use a short 4-6 weeks blast phase to build some muscle while losing a ton of body fat
ULTIMATE 2.0 DIET Plan
As for dieting; extreme energy restriction over the long run is a very bad idea as it will lead to muscle loss, lack of energy
and metabolic slowdown. However, just like with training, it is possible to do a short highly-restrictive diet to initiate fat
loss or get rid of any unwanted body fat prior to the season. If it's done on the short term while still providing enough
protein and essential fatty acids, you will not lose any muscle mass. You will have 4 LOW CARB DAYS on this diet , 1
Intermittent fasting routine whereby you fast until prior to TEMPO BOWLING work at supper time and 1 CARB
LOAD/REFEED DAY to ignite ANABOLISM
Furthermore, at the end of the program, you will have a mini-anabolic rebound when you reintroduce some calories in a
diet that’s specific to GAINING MASSIVE AMOUNT OF STRENGTH. We will be using a CARB ROTATION DIET. This will lead to
muscle growth during the PEAKING week prior to the 1st GAME while continuing to lose fat at the same time
.
I HIGHLY ADVISE YOU PLAN IT SO THIS PROGRAM FINISHES A WEEK PRIOR TO THE 1ST GAME. You
then rest a week and simply bowl. Come GAME DAY I promise you will be yards quicker.

Diet and Supplementation
Ultimate 2.0 Diet- ‘Lyle McDonald’
DIET GUIDELINES
• The diet provided is based on controlled LOW CARB eating for 3 and 1 half days, 2 target Carb days and 1 and
half Carb loading days. It’s a scientific Diet designed by Lyle McDonald. It will kick start the Anabolic process by
fuelling your main work outs whilst ensuring MAXIMUM lean gains with carefully placed Low Carb days. It is to
be followed exactly as given.
The sixth days (Saturday) you have ONE cheat meal (the rest of the day you eat healthy Carb
choices, but lots of it!)
• Post-workout drinks are for after strength workouts only, not ESW or TEMPO work
• DO NOT drink any liquid containing calories except for your post workout protein shake
On low Carb days don’t drink fruit juice, soft drink, regular energy drink and the likes, etc.
• You can only drink water, green tea, coffee, diet soft drink, flavoured water (as long as it doesn't have any
calories).
• DO NOT ingest “ CARB FREE foods’’. By that I mean foods that are sugary (biscuits, cereal bars, sweets,
Chocolate bars, etc.) Those are touted as being ''sugar free'' or with ''no sugar added'', or with ''low impact
carbs''. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS FREE FOOD. The Body just knows it’s SWEET and will release INSULIN
Note: I am not giving you specific food choices but rather portions of each category of food. The table provided
gives you the appropriate food choice and the size of one portion. You can make up your meals by picking any
food you want in the list as long as you respect the prescribed number of portion for each meal.

16/8 IF ROUTINE [Fasting until 3-6pm] ON WEDNESDAY ONLY DRINK 20-30g OF BCAA’s
UNTIL POST BOWLING! Then eat 1 whole meal as Tue + Thu, Post workout snack and 1 more
snack
FRIDAY EVENING AND SATURDAY-Re-feeding/Carbohydrate loading
From 30min prior to the WEIGHT TRAINING SESSION on the FRIDAY EVENING and BEDTIME
on the SATURDAY you should aim to follow this plan;
Aim to consume 7-8 grams of carbohydrates /lb of lean body mass
A lighter bowler with 70kg (154 lbs) of LBM will be eating 1000-1200 grams of
carbohydrates over this 24 hour span
Larger bowlers consume more and lighter bowlers consume less.
In addition to all of those carbohydrates, don't forget protein at 1 gram per pound and low
to moderate amounts of dietary fat; meaning about 15% of total calories or about 50 grams
or so.
Unsaturated fats such as olive oil seem to give a better carb-up but saturated fats let you
eat more garbage so try and limit the SATURATED FAT to a minimum
TOTAL CALORIE INTAKES
Even our lighter bowler might be consuming 4000-4800 calories from carbohydrate alone,
with an additional 600 calories from protein and another 500 or so from fat.
Take the 1st week to see how far you can push up the calories/carbohydrate in this 24hr
ANABOLIC WINDOW without putting any fat back on. One of the keys to avoiding fat gain
during this day is avoiding a high fat intake. This 24 hrs isn’t an excuse to be a SLOTH. Be
sensible but don’t worry too much about food. Just eat. Have one CHEAT MEAL but the
remaining calories come from a CLEAN source.
If you get it right because of the NATURAL PARTITIONING due to full glycogen depletion, the
body's first priority is glycogen repletion; calorie storage in fat cells is purely secondary.
Remember you must EARN THE RIGHT to have this day by following the weekly plan of LOW
CARB eating and glycogen depletion.
GOOD LUCK AND ENJOY THE FEELING OF BEING PUMPED!

VERY IMPORTANT
This program and diet/supplementation routine is an ELITE PROTOCAL which will get you
in PEAK condition.
However, Supplements are not compulsory but they will enhance the results of the
program. Remember they are called supplements for a reason; they supplement a healthy
diet not REPLACE
I have given you the name of the companies I use. You can use any company you want to.
It’s a personal preference. These are the best products for the main supplements
Here are some links to the best supplements on the market in my opinion
