Skip's Guinea Pig Experiment

[aussiebulldog]

I could not wait to post it , and sorry Skip if I jumped the gun a little..


interesting experiment skip conducted on 15 people to see whether the carb source matters or not.
people on diet were on refined carbs with low fat.
results:It doesn't matter what the carb source is.

"The results SO FAR (after 2 months)?? Every single person of the 15 that are committed and consistent are losing body fat and gaining strength without hunger being any more of an issue than with clean carb sources....

The guidelines for carbs sources for this diet are simple, as well: They cannot be clean carb sources - they HAVE to be refined carbs with low fat just as you would use for a Skipload"

Awesome. Long what I've believed.

Since I live low carb 98% of the time... When I do eat carbs, I don't care much about the source. Never posed a problem to my fat loss or maintenance.

Thanks for posting.

I've been following this on IM as well...super interesting results so far.

Then again, they aren't just eating HIGH GI carbs and doing whatever they want. Skip has them on strict individual based cardio and supplementation regimins so i wouldnt just hop on and try this ourselves without someone like Skip leading the way and looking over our shoulders.

i wonder how this would work off season wise especially when really trying to put on mass. It would be far more difficult to tell if it was beneficial when weight gain is the desired result rather than weight loss.

Well no shit. Why would glucose from cereal cause less fat loss than glucose from rice at equal kcal levels? We have the low carb "insulin makes you fat" crowd to thank for this one.

I love the way skip does this work he really pushes things around and goes against the grain to what everyone has been fed to believe.

Also its worth noting I have seen some naturals eat shit you wouldnt believe and get shredded beyond belief because it fitted in with their macros its insane, layne norton was one advocate, its great to have guys like this around because at the end of the day hardly any of us will make money bodybuilding or become a pro , so why feel we have to live a tedious day to day diet, lets enjoy what we eat and still make results.

It's good something like this is actually being done. It shouldn't have to be done however. Why people think specific carb sources have magic fat burning qualities is beyond me. They all break down to the same stuff.

I read something a while back supporting this.
I believe it was from Alan Aragon.

I think people are afraid of insulin secretion.
