hello everyone i read an article a while back about lactic acid training and dramatic fat loss.
the idea behind it is that lactic acid is suppose to increase gh. just wondering if anyone has tried it and had success with it as i like a new challenge and would want to try it.

Its one of the principles for HIIT cardio.
is it. but in the article it says the burn has to be very severe and it make you feel sick.

I thought elevated lactic acids levels hindered fatty acid utilization.

I am imagining that the desired effect is something that happens after the workout.

I personally do not think much, if any, LBM can be added as a direct result of a change in cardio. That being said, the nutrient repartitioning and EPOC levels from HIIT cardio are fantastic for body composition. One thing to remember, though, is that HIIT can be very taxing on the CNS, so I would not restrict kcals too much.

I've done the GBC training, hard to say how much the lactic acid levels really helped. I did loose fat and gain strength doing it tho

I did a little lactic acid training for about a month towards the end of last year, I noticed a loss of fat and a major increase in endurance. However, I also noticed the all my maxes were down, so I would have to say I lost a little strength.

I think the best way to do it would be like Christian Thibaudeau's "Destroying Fat" where heavy lifting days and lactic inducing workouts are both included.

I read a lot of CP's work, and I have done GBC aka Lactic Acid for fat loss, and yes it does work, and it is different than HIIT.

And this year's cut, I will be using the outlines in CT's "Destroying Fat" article...

try and do as much supersetting as you can, with minimal rest. also do a leg exercise, then an upper body one, then a leg, then upper body. alternating like that will maximize results

Actually, I would do it with arms, or drop arms completely. A waste of time during a cut.

well, the only problem I see with doing it friday in place of arms is that depending on how heavy thursday is, might still be pretty sore in the legs. actually tho, I could see dropping arms, and moving legs to friday and doing it then. Cause with hitting legs tuesday, i'm not sure how heavy you could hit them again thursday anyhow

will do. what kind of circuit should i do.
I've been to this seminar and Poliquin says largest muscle to smallest muscle, supersetting lower and upper body. If you don't want to throw up, it was too easy or you do pick the right intensity/weight.

Outlined in CT's article

CIRCUIT A (12-15 reps per set)

A1. Horizontal pushing exercise
A2. Quads-dominant exercise
A3. Horizontal pulling exercise
A4. Hamstrings-dominant exercise
A5. Abdominal exercise

No rest between exercises within the circuit (or as little as possible). Perform the circuit three times.

CIRCUIT B (15-20 reps per set)

B1. Vertical pushing exercise
B2. Quads-dominant exercise
B3. Vertical pulling exercise
B4. Hamstrings-dominant exercise
B5. Abdominal exercise

No rest between exercises within the circuit (or as little as possible). Perform the circuit three times.

CIRCUIT C — OPTIONAL (15-20 reps per set)

C1. Biceps exercise
C2. Calves exercise
C3. Triceps exercise
C4. Abdominal exercise
C5. Shoulder isolation exercise

No rest between exercises within the circuit (or as little as possible). Perform the circuit three times.
