Yes , I love Himalayan pink salt. Even sprinkling some in your water to drink pre workout will give you a wicked pump and increased vascularity.This is good info, do u recommend taking in some extra sodium then? I hear sodium can be good if you drink a lot and sweat a lot. Eating a lot of the natural Whole Foods would lead to a sodium deficiency right?
Then you can go hire some dude off social media who will give you a copied and pasted diet and see how far you get haha.I like your individualistic approach to dieting. I was looking for more of a cookie cutter diet but after reading what u said, that type of diet doesn’t make sense and nor would it work. I have to do some investigating and pay very close attention to how I react to different foods from now on. I’ll be way more conscious from this point forward thanks to you. Awesome advice. I train similar to how you diet, I do what exercises give me the best pump, the best look, and what I can feel the most. I’ll have to start eating this way as well, eating what makes me look the best, feel the best, and grow the most. Thanks bro
Carbs dont spill over in fat storage if your on a caloric deficit. All things fat protein and carbs will eventually end up in fat is you eat more then you need.People over estimate the amount of carbs needed to replenish glycogen stores...once your glycogen is full, the rest of carbs spill over into glucose; leading to fat stirage.
Not to mention, a diet higher in fat satiates appetite better
Sure but then you should not be posting misinformation. Carbs don't spill over in fat at all (unless your on a caloric surplus) but then all other nutrients are also stored as fat.Not carb phobic bruh....
Just offering some advice that worked for me, and alot ofnother people...
Been adding more carbs in bro, and I feel like I look better...No apologies needed. Its just that there is so much misinformation out there from low carb people that i sometimes feel the need to correct.
It really does not matter much where calories come from to be stored as fat. The only important thing is if someone is in a deficit or surplus.
But of course its healthier to not eat processed carbs. But stuff like oats is good.
Nothing wrong with going low carb as it can help for people with a bad insulin response. But most lifters who eat moderate and unprocessed carbs have a normal response as exercise helps for a better insulin response.
Yes glycogen stores get full but after that carbs get burned (if in a deficit or stored as fat or to build muscle in a surplus)
But in a surplus fat get stored as fat and even protein can get stored as fat. So the most important thing is to be at a deficit when wanting to lose fat.
However you do that is a matter of preference. I prefer to keep eating some carbs others go low or no carb. Studies on healthy people have found no advantage of low carb (there is evidence it does work good for people with insulin problems).
But the best diet is one you can stick too. (And has caloric deficit). After having enough proteins and eating mainly unprocessed food the choice is really personal.
On a diet i like salads a lot as they fill me without much calories. Others might hate salads.
Low carb works and is more helpful for some, but honestly if you can and you like carb containing foods why not keep as many of them in as possible is my opinion. Tastes good and workouts always seem better.Been adding more carbs in bro, and I feel like I look better...
I guess I have been falling victim to the "carb phobia" more than I thought
It is useful for some especially if you got an insulin sensitivity problem. But most of us are working out hard (helps with insulin response).Low carb works and is more helpful for some, but honestly if you can and you like carb containing foods why not keep as many of them in as possible is my opinion.
