PWO carbs to trigger an insulin release is a great example of the "broscience" and groupthink that happens on this forum, that you need to be careful of.

Powdered whey protein, designed to be very...

People have the misconception that you "can eat as much as you want" on keto. It's a very frustrating misperception, because so many have misinterpreted the words of Taubes and others.

The reality...

Wow, is this what this forum has degenerated into? Uninformed group think?

Neg me all you want. It just emphasizes your inability to understand the arguments being made.

Not everybody gets fat...

To say that "Calories determine fat loss, not carbs" is to severly understate and misrepresent the issue.

The energy balance issue ("It's just a matter of calories in, calories out") has been...

Let me rephrase that:

"The thermogenics that actually work are stimulants."

:)

FWIW, there's no such thing as a fat burner that isn't a stimulant.

You take a pill, and your body burns more fat. How exactly? Through magic?

It's a "thermogenic" effect. 'Thermo" meaning...

Most people misunderstand the purpose of the EC stack.

They think it's about increasing the amount of weight lost...however in reality, the studies I've read indicate that in a double blind study,...

Indeed, the lime and chili are awesome.

But I'm amazed you haven't discovered the cinnamon covered ones that Blue Diamond also makes, or the ones Emerald makes that are covered in dusted in dark...

That's not how it works, and that's not anything near what I said. Unfortunately, that's pretty much par for the course with your posts.

Feel free to elaborate. It sounds an awful lot like you're reading somebody else's opinion of the book, and you never read the actual book.

I've yet to see somebody prove any of these allegations,...

This thread is filled with uninformed people who seriously need to read Good Calories, Bad Calories, by Gary Taubes.

I'm not...

Fasted LISS is not a "huge nono for muscle preservation".

Regardless of when an activity is done, if it's not anaerobic, it's not going to use stored protein as a (significant) energy source.

I find I need longer rest between sets the more depleted I am.

So, if I binge a little on carbs over a weekend, my Monday lift session will be dynamite, but by Friday I'm daydreaming on the seat...

I do 20-30 minutes of LISS cardio in a fasted state.

I did a lot of research into it before I added that to my routine...and I discovered that most people don't understand the benefits and...

Well...a straw man argument is when somebody debates against a position that nobody is representing, attempting to win an argument by misrepresenting the other persons argument.

That said, I agree...

Thanks guys...not much to note, got down to 268.something late last week. Started both last week and this week at 283, had lots of carbs both weekends, enjoyed every second of it.

I'm already 276...

For what it's worth bro, you're never going to change the fact that once somebody goes back to eating the way they used to eat, they will start to look like they used to look.

Eating...

PWO dextrose isn't used to spike insulin; the rapidly ingested protein will do that anyway. It's to spare that protein from being converted to glucose.

Dextrose is glucose, and thus doesn't need...

Well, I made it to my half-way goal...weighed in at 269.6 this morning. I'm insanely happy about this, especially given how bad I ate this past weekend.

I imagine the last 19ish pounds will be...

Weighed 271 this morning...was pretty happy with that, because I spent last weekend in the country with my gf, eating and drinking until it hurt. I'm hoping to weigh in at 270 tomorrow morning, as...
