I’m currently in my cruise from training and natural. During this time, I always drastically reduce my carbs since I’m not training. I’m interested in trying the Anabolic Diet to recomp and then gain mass. The high carb approach just doesn’t seem to work for me.
I know NY Muscle, Iabadman, kingpeon, and ojs have all used it with success. I was wondering if anyone can chime in regarding doing it in a healthier way. That book is about 20 years old now and while I’m not one to shy away from red meat and cheese, I’m wondering if long term it’s good to be on as a lifestyle.
I was thinking of doing it with fat sources being fat from meat, egg yolks, EVOO, walnut oil, coconut oil, butter, peanut butter, almond butter, cashews, and avocados. During the refeed I’m aiming only for one day and would definitely like to include servings of fruit for nutrients and antioxidants that are absent during the week.
DiPasquale mentions in the book getting someone up to 260 lbs (not my goal) with this way of eating. With his ratios that person was probably eating 350+ grams of fat per day. That just seems insane to me and would seriously mess up cholesterol.
So do any of our high protein/high fat members have any advice or experience they could share?
Thank you.
