No carb meals



really thats impressive? I thought i saw him say on a video log that he turns away over 70% of the people who ask for coaching! yeah the metabolic damage one is awesome so I know where the 5g carbs and 1g fats comes from.

Also are you going to see Layne when he comes to Aus next month?
 

By body weight Mick....

1 gram per pound or kilo....
 

What is this metabolic damage one?
 

watch the youtube clip i just posted up. its interesting

Watched it, found it painful to listen to, it's all old news and common knowledge rehashed into a boring video.

Sorry he might be a good coach, but he does not impress me much, he has not said anything I have not heard a thousand times before.

The above before and after picks can be found on any infomercial during daytime TV so not really impressive either.
 

stick with atkins diets then. Laynes results speak for themselves.
 
agreed.

Anyway, the reason I posted that vid in this thread is because of the bit about extremities specifically "some insulin post workout is good, so shitloads must be better" that was one of the weird things I read in CBL book.

At the end of the day, if the overall diet works for the person to maintain an adequate macronutrient ratio for their goals over time then that is a good diet for them. Just some of the science of the CBL seems a bit off to me.
 
I certainly will be, have gone from the before photo to the middle one in a couple of month, eating as much as I want and till I am full at every meal. Starting to see the outline of my upper abs for the first time in 12 or so years and strength still going up.

No reason to change while it works!

Unless someone can tell me something I have not heard before, and it's backed by science, I say good on you and good luck with it, what ever works for you
 

yeah i kind of thought similar but figure i'll try it out for 6-8weeks n c how i go with it. if it works it works if it dont i wont try it again
 
Big Mick: I have no idea what you are arguing about?

and yeah, I'll probably give it a go too. I'm all for self experimentation.
 

I have only recently read CBL and the science in it is the only thing that makes sense, they guy is not just making random rehashed statements (like the video), he has actually studied this and put it all together, rather than just spew random stuff and call it his own. I actually found the video hard to watch as the guy was trying to debunk scientific facts with opinion with no backing at all.
 
Riiiiight.

So why should one specifically avoid low gi carbs post workout? Scientifically speaking that is.
 

Layne has a PHD. he backs up what he says with research. im not following what your saying
