    My Diet Plan

    Not that I have any clue as to which point is right but... Let's assume the subjects are working out in a certain way that is best suited to their muscle fibers. For example a long distance runner is running at almost full effort and a powerlifter is lifting close to 1 RM and each are doing...

    My Diet Plan

    Ah a Kiwi eh? My girlfriend is from Australia. I appreciate the reply - I'll have to read it a few times over to get a good grasp on it. My cholesterol is something I am finally taking an interest in now that I am 33. History of heart disease and high chol on fathers side. I'll look into...

    My Diet Plan

    thanks for the link. This is all I think I have in my paperwork (unless I'm missing a section on my lipids). where can I get those additional numbers? Should I ask my doc for them next time (dumb question - of course I should)

    My Diet Plan

    wow! I have dialed in my diet and I like how I feel with a 45 carb/35 pro/20 fat. Maybe I'll up my calories and'or go 45/30/25 after this phase to see if a boost in fat makes me feel any better. I may be switching to whole milk tomorrow tho. thanks for sharing

    My Diet Plan

    I read just fine and I've read your replies. I was also speaking in general terms to include any argument against any ratio - you complain about one thing others may complain about others (i.e. fats, proteins, carbs...) Anyway you're arguing semantics - he did say "most." but I am curious...

    My Diet Plan

    How many times do you need to point out "most" people before you realize the diet you're on is far from "normal"? In a regular maintenance, cutting or bulking diet splits from 55/30/15 to 40/40/20 are common. If you break down your nutrients and you find that your ratios are way out of whack...

    My Diet Plan

    from a harvard review: One highly-publicized report analyzed the findings of 21 studies that followed 350,000 people for up to 23 years. Investigators looked at the relationship between saturated fat intake and coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Their...

    My Diet Plan

    the ratios are based on what many individuals have found to be healthy balances of macros - there are several splits. Some splits are radical such as in the case of an adkins diet while low fat diets are greatly different. Fueledpassion did a good job explaining what I tried to explain. No...

    My Diet Plan

    maybe the best way to sum it up is to say this: Find an appropriate ratio scheme that fits your diet and exercise goals and that makes you feel good. If a 4000 cal diet is giving you too much protein then lower the calories.

    My Diet Plan

    calories are fuel needed for energy output (we all know this) - if your overall calories are in line with "fuel needed" or energy consumption than you're ok (assuming your macros are in balance and in line with the same goals). The ratio should represent a balanced diet. perhaps a better and...

    My Diet Plan

    I have cholesterol of 330+ so I have to watch my sat fats. But it's not like I don't eat them. Of my total fat intake they represent about 1/4-1/5. I've read the benefits of sat fats - but I also read the dangers of high cholesterol and high sat fats. Avoiding sat fats doesn't make my diet...

    My Diet Plan

    I never mentioned cholesterol intake - I said I have high chol so saturated fats are something to watch since they are what make the body create chol. Sat fat is "thought" to increase test levels ONLY in men who lift. I eat enough saturated fats - I just make sure I don't eat too much. And I...

    My Diet Plan

    the idea of "there is no such thing as 'bad' food" is fine if you're starving - but it loses merit in the scope of eating to be healthy (energetic/strong/focused). Sandwiches are typically high in sodium/preservatives, fat and high glycemic carbs. As far as sodium: Sodium is fine up until a...

    My Diet Plan

    and before you tell me you can get your protein, carbs and fats on the "**** list" consider the amount of saturated fats and sodium you'd take in as well. So the point isn't just getting X amount of Pro, Y amount of carbs and Z amount of unsat fats - it's about taking in clean calories...

    My Diet Plan

    I think you're just missing the point. And you could not stay healthy on fried/fatty foods as listed above nor could you fuel yourself with healthy calories on ****ty food options. So a list of food items is the place to start with a healthy diet. Portions and timing will come later. for...
