Why not concentrate on bulking up instead of getting leaner? j > hi, > im 6'1 (186) [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > what do u think will happen to me at this rate? my goal is to reduce body > fat and not lose muscle, prefer to gain it visit misc.fitness.weights and start lifting heavy things. also, why are you on a low carb diet??? What's the point? i less cardio more weight lifting lots of egg whites, lean meats, chicken Paul > hi, > im 6'1 (186) [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > what do u think will happen to me at this rate? my goal is to reduce body > fat and not lose muscle, prefer to gain it I myself completed the low carb diet and lots almost 100lbs. My question to you though is why at your size and weight are you on it? Do you have a family history of diabetes? It just seems a little odd that someone of your weight and size would be on it. If you want to build lean muscle mass, try taking CLA, I took it in conjunction with my diet and found that it worked awesome for building muscle (which helps burn calories!). If you do that though you'll probably want to start adding some "good carbs" back to your diet. > hi, > im 6'1 (186) [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > what do u think will happen to me at this rate? my goal is to reduce body > fat and not lose muscle, prefer to gain it Hi - you're in great shape. 12% body fat is excellent - even elite athletes' only get down to 5%. To increase lean mass, you could try "negative resistance" - it's risky but it is one way to larger muscles. Also a good idea - lift weights with a buddy - you'll egg each other on to lift more. Finally, make sure you get enough sleep. During deep sleep human growth hormone (that grows muscles) is released. > hi, > im 6'1 (186) [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > what do u think will happen to me at this rate? my goal is to reduce body > fat and not lose muscle, prefer to gain it |
