Hey bro. I had great results on a cyclic ketogenic diet. 5-7 days keto, 2 days carb-loading. I had 6 meals a day consisting of one full shot glass of olive or peanut oil, and 20g protein from whey or soy isolate. I was always hungry, I would sweat grease, and if it weren't for the ECA I'd probably hve had no energy, but according to underwater weighing I lost 2.25lbs of fat a week while gaining .25 lb of muscle. No juice, just high weight/low reps and lots of dicipline. Peace! | ||

The thing w/ losing fat is you will always lose some muscle. THis is due to your body producing catabolic enzymes when doing cardio or increasing metabolism. I'm not sure about carb/protein ratios. But i do know that cutting carbs down and taking in a lot of protein is good. About 180g of protein per day. And try an anti-catabolic drug. Xenadrine is a good fat burner that is anti-catabolic, unlike Metabolife, etc. | ||

I agree with Dr. Atlas, the ketogenic diet is definately worth a try, if you want info on it email me. | ||

I can't imagine only taking in 120 grams of protein and no carbs...That would fuck me all up. ------------------ Visit my website (free of all Musclehedz pictures) at http://profiles.elitefitness.com | ||

The old anabolic diet is your best bet. Done correctly, you should be able to keep all your muscle. | ||
