    Nutrient partitioning

    I would say it's the other way around, special interest groups control the U.S. Government. One caveat would be immediate death (including stem cells). FDA has very little control in the end. I remember a TV program a few years back, Dateline or 20/20 where a couple of former FDA scientist...

    Nutrient partitioning

    The only repartitioning device I am aware of is strategic carb depletion such as that in UD2.0. As far as I have read, supplements/drugs like Bromo, ALA, and vinegar work irregardless of tissue muscle:fat, they don't repartition the disposal of glucose, they send and take away as established by...

    MCT's

    I use Coconut oil, olive oil, 6g EPA/DHA and Enova oil instead of carbs when bulking. Have not noticed positive nutrient partitioning.

    Enough Calories to grow

    Calorie counters are nothing more than estimates, journalize everything (cals, weights, cardio, other activities outside of ordinary) and weigh yourself once week or so at the same time of day. I like first thing in the morning, empty bladder. Adjust calories to hit weight gain objectives all...

    Meal Content (mixing fat and Carbs)

    I think he had problem with ISP and became Lyle again when he switched to Grande Communications, but I may be wrong. If you are looking for the thread it is titled "Lyle McDonald" do a search in MFW for Berardi.

    Fat Loss Maximization

    If WSB isn't the answer what can I do to maintain strength (and hopefully muscle mass) while strip fat? I lose a good 10% of strength on major lifts every cycle while I am dieting, throughout the year I perform 3 hypocaloric HST cycles and 2-3 hypercaloric. I generally net a negative strength...

    Fat Loss Maximization

    I am trying to maximize fat loss, I have been performing HST and looking for a bit of change. Currently I perform 45min on two off days, 20min after workout sessions. All other things constant what would happen if I switched from HST to WSB eating hypocaloric? Is the TUT enough to maintain...

    Followed Lyle's recommendations word-for-word, I used it for three weeks. I am taking a break over the holiday week because I know I wouldn't adhere to the diet. I dropped a total of 8lbs and lost about 1.5% bf. The last week I lost no bodyweight, gained lbm and lost .4% bf. My results...

    Where to buy best tasting least expensive protien?

    I love protein customizers vanilla flavoring, and WPC is cheap. I also like the taste of Complete Whey from Cytosport, I buy through Planet Depot @ $18.99 for 5lbs. All The Whey has 10lbs of WPC @ $38.99, but it's not quite as sweet as the other two above.

    The Ultimate Diet version 2.0

    As an addendum to that question. Bryan, if one were going to use HST wouldn't tons of cardio be necesary when the user is at the 5 rep level? Are the depletion days a great time to add in drops sets for the depletion? Many users that want to stick to HST and use UD2 would appreciate a...

    opinions/questions on my diet

    It's hard to tell if you are at the appropriate kcal level without a detailed journal (including body comp changes) over at least 60-90 days. FWIW - in my half-cocked opinion you are eating below maintenance calories and if you are not losing weight it's because you have stunted your...

    opinions/questions on my diet

    Watch your carbs, eat good complex carbs and you will notice a difference. I know this is a "no duh!", but food choices are the oft overlooked panacea, instead people focus on macro breakdowns. A. Keep you full longer B. Less of an insulin surge C. More fiber, good for lower GI health...

    Cutting diet guidance needed

    You need a baseline to begin with. Holding all else constant you will know how are doing by monitoring ratio of fat loss/muscle loss. I started out with 90 minutes a week (steady state) worked up to 225 minutes. I was losing weight too fast so I have cut back down to 90 minutes and raised my...

    Cutting diet guidance needed

    Now to directly answer your question. If you want to cut on the calories you are bulking on, without adjusting the calories you can up the activity level to where calories out is higher then calories in you should burn more fat over long period time, because the metabolim won't downregulate as...
