 When Atkins became popular, it renewed an interest in the bodybuilding community in ketogenic diets. These diets consist of higher fat, moderate protein, very low carb nutrition. A true ketogenic diet will have extremely low carbohydrate content in an effort to force the body to burn fat for fuel. The very popular Anabolic Diet is based off this type of system. Low Carb to Force Fat Burning I have tried almost every nutritional technique and have found that a 5 day a week ketogenic diet followed by a higher carb, almost anything you want, diet on weekends works extremely well. The low carb portion forces the body to become a fat burning machine. After some consistency with this type of diet plan, the body gets so used to burning fat for fuel that it can handle just about any meal thrown at it. The Anabolic Diet is 100% based upon this principle. It teaches that you can eat low carb 5 days a week and then have free weekends and you won’t gain fat. It seems to work quite well. Adequate Protein You must be careful to take in enough protein to rebuild the body after a difficult workout. Failure to do this will result in you going in the wrong direction. Your muscles need protein to grow. Give that to them in the form of adequate protein intake and you are going to see results on a plan like this. Ketogenic diets are great for leaning out. You actually feel different as you are getting more and more lean. It is a tremendous cutting plan. | ||
