Whats your current training plan and whats your daily calory demand? I thought about going keto, but couple things held me back. Like its harder to plan, you have to freeze a lot of meat and start defrosting it in time. With high carb its easier, pasta, rice and deep-fried vegetables are basically instantly accessible and need very little storage room. Also meat is very dense, and I was kinda afraid to eat too much becaue you feel hungrier after eating proteins compared to rice that contains the same amount of energy.

Eating that much beef isn't good for you. Eating a mostly red diet literally shoots your risk of diabetes and heart problems. Same as eggs. They have healthy cholesterol but are loaded with it. Eating 12 a day is a huge shock to your system. The fact they ate low amounts of vegetables on top of that is also horrible. Arnold went through multiple heart surgeries and is basically vegan now. The low cycling helped them overall. Problem now is that they cycle all year long with maybe a 2-4 week break with all the new gear. Then eat these absurdly high calorie diets to get as big as possible, So even though they are eating pretty healthy meals, the overload is the killer.

[@theboraxbandit9563]

@@RagingRevine Lol... according to what? why do you think that? you are designed to utilize cholesterol. Your body even produces some to keep you alive. We've been consuming it for as long as we can record, some cultures consuming nothing but it. Our cells, brain, mothers milk etc is all made out of cholesterol. It's ridiculous to think it could harm us. People have consumed up to 50 raw eggs a day with no problems. Vegetables are man made and do not exist in nature. We can't even utilize them properly as our bodies aren't designed to break them down. Why do you think we would require them? also Arnold took steroids if you didn't already know. He is only a "vegan" on tv (he isn't) because he is a puppet who is used for his influence by corporations.

[@bronxishomenomatterwhereig3149]

Only explanation for the severe lack of energy. Is that you didn't get enough fats in your diet to replace the carbs. On keto diet, fat becomes your fuel source instead of the glucose from carbs. So you must be sure to get plenty of good fat in your diet if your gonna do keto

Something that most people fail to realize is that vegetables are carbohydrates. They're fibrous carbs instead of starchy carbs like a potato. But they're still carbs, and they still work. I basically did the opposite of every recommended dietary guideline floating around the fitness industry. Working out really hard, and not eating much at all. I lost zero strength, and lost a lot of body weight so in all actuality Just became a more efficient person.

You burn like at least 1500 calories a day lifting, and not including resting metabolism, you can eat whatever you want as long as it's not empty carbs and sugars. Also, gear allows your body to metabolize 2 grams or more per pound of bodyweight in protein a day. If you aren't on gear, you can't eat like that.

Golden era bodybuilders weren't afraid to do physical activity other than heavy weights. Calisthenics, aerobics, light cardio and light weights can do wonders to shape the body once you have some size. Bigger, heavier and more of everything isn't always the answer.

[@amarjitningthoujam7113]

Golden era - Always Gold Today era - Pregnant era

[@k-dogg9086]

It just reflect the era. Back then the ppl prepared 3 regular meals, with higher fatty things like bacon sausages lard butter and olive oil (I use avocado and coconut oils also, and I use acv and lemon juice in salads water and prep meats), then moderate proteins like black coffee, beans, eggs, fish, chicken, beef, turkey, and low carbohydrates, the complex carbs, like salads oatmeal cheeses and certain veggies. Fruits too, but rare. They did however eat simple carbs, yes, more so than athletes of that era. They didn't go with the fruit and soy yogurts lattes and smoothies like today. Then they changed the pyramid to high carbohydrates low fars and proteins round that time, and ppl adapted to this unhealthy unhappy diet ever since, with now salt soy and sugar added to everything unlike anything before. An Unjust attack on fats. 👎 😋

I thoroughly enjoyed this video! As fro the bloating you mentioned, I would have to say that diets of today include way to much sugar. Sugar is the enemy, it's in everything and were addicted to it. carbs are also a problem, but not as much as sugar. These guys focused on protein only, and their bodies were lean as fuck as a result. Very impressive, we should all aspire to be more like these guys!!

I think some bodybuilders are deliberately trying to use Insulin effects even injecting it. I guess it's kind of a growth hormone and they use it for faster recovery and adding mass. Probably many side effects making the body a total train wreck.

Now, with as near as 100 years of BB history, we can affirm scientifically that carbs are absolutely necesary to build and gain muscle. Around 50% of what a Bodybuilder eat is carbs. Protein is essencial, about 1.5-2 grams per body kilogram but not much more.
