Hi friends,
I am in Poughkeepsie, NY with my client who is competing in the International Natural Bodybuilding Federation New York State Championships. Today, he has been "carbing up" though a high carbohydrate diet is not what has brought him to this best shape of life.
Now as most of you know most, but not all, bodybuilders follow a low carb and high protein diet.
Well, a landmark study may have proven that low carb diets lead to more effective weight loss. The study compared low fat, Mediterranean, and low carb. The low carb dieters participants lost 10.3 lbs, compared to 9.7 for Mediterranean and 6.4 for low fat.
Even more interesting the low fat and Mediterranean diets were restricted calories, 1500 for women and 1800 for men. The low carb diet on the other hand had no calorie restrictions.
So, what does bodybuilding and low carb have to do with you? Simple, consume more lean proteins and color in your diet. Eliminate processed foods, add more color (fruits/veggies), limit starches and eat more healthy fats (see, Bruschi was on to something by eating my almonds!)
Dedicated to your success,

P.S. Come visit me tomorrow at the NBC 30 Health and Welness festival at the Hartford Convention Center. I'll be demonstrating an effective fat loss routine at 11am on the main stage.
