what is the Best Diet for You

Can a high protein , low card and low fat diet work for someoen who does cardio( 20 mins+) AFTER excercising?

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 01:27:23 +0000

Have you tried the HCG Solution yet?

I wanna add muscle and want to loose fat at the same time. But i don’t wanna get huge. just lean. I am 20 , 6 ft tall and 175 lbs and I wanna make a plan to achieve my goal.
I heard people say concentrate first on getting huge and then cut down on the fat. I lift weights and then do my cardio for 30 mins, and eat a high protein diet. will it work?? I gues it really comes down to how much carb i want in my diet!! Help

You need some carbs. You need to take in at least 60 grams a day and with your age and workout 120 would be fine to, That would be considered a low carb diet. Just make you carbs count, eat complex carbs like whole grains and beans, They both add quality protein to your diet.
Recent studies have shown that to stay lean you need fat in your diet. Again it is the quality of the fat that counts. Eat cold water fish for excellent protein and fat. Try to stay away from all other animal fats. Olive oil is a very healthy fat.
Other studies show that eating some protein before and after exercise causes faster gains. It helps the muscle repair itself faster.
