Since you are low carbing, I would look at the fat sources you are consuming, you said sometimes you throw in a fat. Make sure you are hitting your required Macronutrient intake for Protein, carbs and fats. Usually your fat intake will increase when your carbs are low, to give you the energy needed in place of less carbs…

What does your meals consist of, besides salads. Protein will satiate you, keep you full longer. Also, drink water. We all have cravings, just have to stay focused on your goal. Hope that helps.

Yes, over the years I built the physique, but definitely at a sacrifice of foods I love. It is a pain to consume the volume of food, and definitely more expensive. The only good thing about eating 'clean' is the revisit of the same foods and tracking made easy since I ate the same thing everyday; which may be a pain for…

Thanks to all that stated I was wrong in my information, I've been bamboozled! I did some research and came across this article, that shed some light on why many said I was wrong; but didn't give supporting documentation of why I was wrong. Instead of just saying a person is wrong, show that person the error of his or her…

cool. I lift more for performance. Cardio is a must for Martial Arts, Grappling and MMA.

Noted, and thank you. In your experience, since a surplus is a surplus; do you look better eating what you want or eating strict? Is it easier or harder to cut? I personally find eating cleaner is better for me and less of an effort in the cutting phase. The bolded comments are my personal experience. Off season, I walk…

@LolBroScience... I'm sorry my posts have offended you or others. If I am or have misinformed anyone; and you have/are or know the Holy Grail to Bodybuilding and Nutrition, please enlighten me and share your knowledge, so that I can be better informed and achieve a physique such as yours. (Sarcasm). By the way, I love the…

Calories in vs calories out. The "Bro Science" in my post is just that, Bro Science. Man, you can eat what you want, If it fits your macros, and the your training is on point, then yes you can put on quality muscle, but keep in mind if you eat the fattier foods you will increase your chance of gaining fat as well. I know…

@Chieflrg, Looking at His avatar, I assume he has already reached his weight loss goal, since he mentioned bulking. He also stated that he wasn't really interested in doing a dirty bulk. I implied that eating that way will not put on quality mass, yes he may gain weight, but in the form of fat, which will defeat the…

@3laine75, not to be rude or anything, but you are jacking the thread. Perhaps it would have been better to start your thread/ask your question separately. However, I will do my best to answer your question. First and foremost, I am not a professional as in Dietician etc. but through trial an error, researching and being…

Hey Ryan, I would definitely not do what you are describing, in reference to adding the ice cream and brownies every day. You will defeat the purpose of quality gains and just add fat; which you will spend more time trying to lose the fat to show off the hard earned muscle and work you put in getting the physique you…
