...WL:Have you been able to put numbers on some of the gains that you
have seen?
CP: I would say that it probably gives you a 25% advantage over
training naturally...
WL:That’s substantial!
CP: Basically.Hypertrophy is total volume of work,done at an intensity
maintained at, at least, 70% of max. That’s why carnosine favors
hypertrophy.The only problem is that we usually do the program with
the Vitamin C therapy, so it’s hard to say which one did what.But I’ve
done on myself either LC or the Vitamin C therapy.The advantage of
the Vitamin C is a reduction in body fat,if you were to choose between
the two.
Actually,guys with 6% body fat,who are already quite lean,with
twice a week of just adding the Vitamin C therapy, can go to 2.8. This
is with no change in diet or anything.
WL:So,Vitamin C is something we’re going to see competitive bodybuilders
take an interest in?
CP: Yeah, I’ve got my Throwers doing it now. They find they’re
already lean, but their speed will go up because they are getting even
leaner. I think more competitive athletes will do that.Bodybuilders too.
WL:What about side-effects? Do you see any serious risks with these
techniques?
CP: No,none at all really.There can be a lowering of blood sugar with
Vitamin C that we need to watch with some clients.They are both natural
and very safe techniques.
