lactic acid training for fat loss

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.
 
I thought elevated lactic acids levels hindered fatty acid utilization.
 
yes. not just fat loss but dramatic fat loss im also sure Christian Thibaudeau says its an effective method for fat loss
 
I am imagining that the desired effect is something that happens after the workout.
 
im not sure mate,but i tried one of the workout this morning and let me tell you its pain but in a good way

Well yahoo. Let us know how it turns out. Always open to something new and improved.
 
will do ill do it for a month and give a review.
but would like to see peoples experiance with it
 
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.

the lactic acid training is not through cardio its through lifting weights
 
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
 
well i got of the phone last night talking to a gym buddy and he used it twice in intervals of 4 weeks at a time and loved it. he didnt change his diet and still whent clubbing on the weekend. well i think ill give it a go because im currently cutting now using thyrotabs and lipo6 and straight after leviathan reloaded and leanxtreme wohooo.
<10% here i come

i apologise for the repost stupid computer lol
 
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...
 
its a great article isnt it.
well im going to do my normal heavy lifting during my current cut.
im doing the following plan.
mon-chest/back
tuesday-legs
wed-off
thur-legs
fri-arms
sat/sun-off
i want to incorperate a full body lactic acid session, what would be the best day to do it?
 
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
 
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.
