Re: I?m confused, I?m overwhelmed?. Help pls! ?

Nope. I wasn't implying that. I was referring to the balances I see discussed here most often. I've seen quite a few different people literally post that they do their best balancing their meals the 40.30.30 way in reference to the Zone diet. I would never take that path myself, though. Mixing too many things at once gives me severe digestive problems - it runs in my family.

I dont see anyone mixing their meals....in fact, I think the majority are doing a great job of macro combinations

Hmm, well, I guess I spend too much time on the Diet and Bodybuilding board considering I surfed through every page of the three diet sections you have on this site and that section contained the largest amount of threads about macros. The zone diet split was a very popular question, whether in that particular phrasing or otherwise, I can assure you that much. The second and third most questioned were 40.40.20 and keto diets. By mixing I meant food combinations, i.e. milk with meat. Remember that one? Milk with fruit also causes fermentation- it has been scientifically proven. Guess you should think twice about putting those acidic blueberries in your cereal

This forum is held by women. Females have the natural ability to tell what's shit and what isn't food-wise P

that face didnt work out. Question: if a person builds muscle fairly quickly, does that mean that person (say...me) has a slow metabolism or a quick one? My test. level is normal. At least it was the last time I checked. er...there have been other aspects (hair problems). I don't know if this really accounts for anything. What's your opinion, Shadow?

cant say...it all goes back to genetics.


Muscle easily = mesomorph

Fat easily - endo

naturally skinny = ecto


so..I would venture to say that you are a meso/ecto or endo depending upon "natural" bodyfat levels

lol. I can't tell regarding my 'natural' bodyfat levels. I used to be an endo weighing 150. I would eat half a dominoes pizza + cinnastix and garlic bread and dressing and stuff...put on a few pounds in a day or two. I ate a horrid amount of sweets my entire life, overate, ate chemicals, saturated fats (you get the point) and then dropped all the weight in about 7 months total now. I'm maintaining somewhere between 100 and 105. Pretty good muscle tone...isn't showing on the scale tho :/ I dunno how good or bad that is. You can see the outline of my abs at this point. You can also tell I had built shoulder/bicep muscle. All hell breaks loose when I flex tho. My thighs are naturally muscular but same goes for those; perhaps even more muscular than arms. I dunno, I suppose I'm an ecto-mes now 'cause I'm damn skinny with sum cute muscles
