Re: A very good article on carb cycling

TT & PSCarb - thanks for this article. It explains carb cycling in a very clear and understandable way. I am going to try this once I come off PCT.

Re: A very good article on carb cycling

Is the list in the article (see below) the only veg that are safe to eat? or will any fibrous veg do? I'm assuming that fibrous veg means the non-startchy ones (ie no potatoes, sweet potatoes etc...).

Quote:
Fibrous veg to accompany meals
Spinach
Onions
Broccoli
Celery
Cabbage
Sprouts
Tomatoes
Mushrooms
Lettuce
Cucumber

I would think any veg of low calorific value is fine mate.

Negative foods as PScarb calls them I think, in that they use as many or more calories in their digestion than they contain.

Re: A very good article on carb cycling

sorry bogman missed your question...
yes as BA as pointed out these are negative foods meaning the body will burn more calories eating them than they give....

one more you can add is beansprouts....

tip...
chop a red onion along with some mixed wild mushrooms throw into a wok with some beansprouts then add some chicken and some lee and perrins to taste....this makes an excellant low carb meal..

I'm partial to a drink myself, so I sympathise! However, I think most of the experts will recommend drastically cutting or eliminating drinking if you're trying to lose body fat?

Do you do weights all five days? If not, you could do the low carb day on the weekday(s) you don't do weights? or on the days you do a less strenous session?

Also - spirits and wine have less calories than beer.

Losing fat is the easy bit.
Just eating enough to maintain my size and strength has been hard lately.

My routine is as follows.

Mon - Chest
Tues - Back
Wed - Leds and Abbs
Thurs - Delts and Traps
Fri - Biceps and Triceps

I go out Friday night and all day and night on Saturdays.

Used to drink Whiskey but you can quite easy end up doing two bottles a day as it goes down to well.
I drink Cider now and beer if im at home or in a country pub.

Re: A very good article on carb cycling

guys if you want to progress in any way be that losing BF or gaining Muscle drinking all weekend will not help you have to prioritise or lower your goals...

alcohol stunts the body's ability to burn bodyfat and gain muscle...

Re: A very good article on carb cycling

Great article, will try this out to lose some unwanted bf.

I love beetroot, will this be allowed on this diet as a fibrous veg to accompany meals?

Is It a negative food?

Cheers,

T-k
