The point of the PSMF is to provide enough protein to spare muscle tissue for amino acid requirements, and the absolute minimal glucose requirements, while taking advantage of the increased metabolic rate that comes with a large amount of protein.

Do you think it’s OK or that’s still too much cardio?
The rest of the week, I just do light exercise.

Tips and tricks for transitioning off the diet are there and are heavily emphasized.

I am seriously considering giving this plan a try. I am currently pretty strict paleo, and while I feel great on it, I am not seeing the weight loss that I would like to. I am considering purchasing Lyle’s book to follow.
But, I am TERRIFIED of post diet weight gain. I am a former amateur bodybuilder, and tend towards an endomorph/mesomorph body type. I gain muscle and fat very well, and retain both VERY WELL! In a nutshell, in a 20 week contest prep, my trainers had to practically torture me into contest shape with low carbs/calories and insane amounts of cardio, multiple times daily. I never was able to get my abs out, however, nor would my body release the water at the end, even with diuretics… :(
However, the post contest weight gain was unbelievable!!!

It seems like every gram of carbs I ate went straight into fat storage. While I no longer compete, I do want my bod back!! Since my competing days (my last show was ~5 years ago), I have done nothing but struggle with body fat.

What do you think, should someone like me give Lyle’s “Rapid Fat Loss” a go or a miss?

Any advice would be so appreciated!
Barb
