Ever since i started dropping protein from internet meme levels of 200g+ a day to 100g, and bumping carbs up my lifting sessions have been insane, insane pumps, can just keep going and going without going flat. Runs and bike rides have been crazy too, my 5ks usually feel sluggish and it takes a while to get warm and limber, now i just feel warm and ”ready” all the time. Sleep went from 6-6.5h with mostly light sleep, now easily hit 8.5-9hThis peating shit is no joke
>>77143172carbs also spare protein, because you need to perform less gluconeogenesis.
Where's the pasta
>>77143172200g+ of protein per day? That's nuts.
>>77143172>ive been eating more carbs which are energy and now i have more energy to lift!no fucking shit you brain dead fucking moron
Post body and I'll believe it
>>77143172>ever since i stopped eating in a surplus of calories like a fat retard i have more energywow
>>77143172While we are on the topic of food, how does one eat a fuck ton of salad or cabbage without wanting to kill oneself?
>>77143581you're not. it's supposed to be a vessel for olive oil. raw plants are mostly inedible.
>>77143581eat something superior like bell peppers instead
>>77143584Salad/cabbage and olive oil or salad/cabbage cooked in olive oil? Never tried either.>>77143585I use them every so often but right now i want more volume for cheap. Bell peppers are expensive in the winter.
>>77143581I dunno I just throw in cabbage, lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, onions, carrotsUse some vinegar and spices and that's good, its delicious, don't even use oilI sometimes throw in half a walnut crumbled up
>>77143181Meme bullshit, as long as you have fat and glucose your body will never use protein for energy
>>77143621Just glucose actually
>>77143628What do you think your body stores fat for, genuinely curious (actually im not, i know you're ignorant stupid)
>>77143632For energy/ketosisIts just a stupid thing to say, your body will never break down protein for a lack of fatIt will only break down protein for gluconeogenesis when you're missing out on necessary glucose
>>77143643Maybe you're indian or a cow hybrid and have special needs for your special snowflake body, but humans can live on glycerol just fine without their body ever turning to protein for pyruvate. In fact protein takes way too many ressources for your body to give it priority over fat.
>>77143653You're overestimating protein priorityWe can and have measured for a long time now that the body metabolizes protein during caloric deficits, even if they have fat on themIt doesn't metabolize protein on high carb diets however
>>77143621>>77143653what a fucking retard lmao
I follow the rayp eat diet. I love candy and sugar I feel like a hummingbird
>>77143671Baseless statement>>77143712Angry insults
>>77143581cabbage is very anti-thyroid in it's raw form and it was an ingredient of old thyroid "medications" which shut down thyroid function.The only raw vegetable I eat is carrot on a daily basis, if I feel like eating any other vegetable I cook it very well usually.
>>77143581I love salad.
>>77143172>used to eat 200g protein>now follows a meme pyramidCan’t wait to see what retarded diet you’re on next
Peaters are stuck in one of the biggest midwit traps ever created
>>77146006>Baseless statementPeople lose lean tissue when in calorie deficit, even if they have plenty of fat to lose :0
Eat more carbs = more glycogen stores = more energy
>>77145999no such thing as a ray peat diet
idk what you all are even arguing about but the body needs protein or carbohydrates and can't live on fat alone. You don't need carbs though you can just eat protein
>>77148141No one ever argued that you can live on fat alone, the point is that carbohydrates are redundant if you consume animal fats and arent a runner
>>77147209Lean tissue can be anything ranging from water to edema to hair and other bodily fluids that arent water
>>77148164lol!!!
