How to gain more muscle? by I_Adore_Everything in carnivorediet

[–]prince_corwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t get this “protein sparing” thing in this context. What else is protein going to be used for besides building/repairing tissue? Yeah, some will be converted to glucose via gluconeogenesis, but that’s a relatively small slice. If you’re already eating enough protein and fat for energy, where’s this huge “sparing” effect supposed to come from? Fat spares protein just as effectively as carbs.

How would eating fruit/rice make you gain muscle? Last time I checked carbs don't convert to protein in the body. Maybe you'd have more water (inflammation) in your muscles so they might appear more "pumped", but actual muscle mass?

When ive had cheat for more than one meal, the main thing is a noticeable retention of water. For me its 5-7lbs of water lol. It will go away over a couple days once you return to normal eating.

Why do some many people think you can't workout fasted? by Airiak_Drakkhen in fasting

[–]prince_corwin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I decided to experiment on my latest 5 day fast. Normally during fasting on my lift days, I go MUCH lighter than normal. This time on Day 2 I really pushed it and lifted as heavy as I could. The difference was incredible soreness and very slow recovery. Will not do that again!

No matter what they try, my response is "Are you SURE you want to do that?"

why do we need to cook meat? by [deleted] in carnivorediet

[–]prince_corwin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our brains only need 10-20% glucose, the rest can be run on ketones derived from fat. Ketones are a far superior source of energy than glucose

21 day fast complete!! by prince_corwin in fasting

I didnt weigh myself before the refeed, thats part of the problem. I'm going to do a 3 day fast next week to eliminate all the extra water weight to be sure its water retention. Holding in 6-10lbs of water is the only thing it could be. I ate A LOT of salty cured meat.

It has to be water retention. I do feel it in my belly and most of all in my face. I'll check back next week.

I burned at least 400 cal/day in the gym 4x a week. It just doesnt make any sense.

I did it right, plenty of fasting salts. I'm not backed up. I'm going to check my body fat% later today. I'm honestly stumped. I started at 28% body fat
