My brother is on the Atkins diet and he doesn't really eat any carbs, and he wants to start lifting again. My question is, With basically no carbs, will he be burning his muscle as fuel during his work out, or will he be using his fat stores for the energy? If he needs to eat carbs in order to...

Thanx for all the advice! I lost my beer gut, but there was still some stubborn fat that kinda looks weird. All the fat that was left on my stomach all collected around my waist just below my belly button!! My neck got a lot smaller too! And I could finally see some deffinition in my inner...

The Red Dragon, I loved the Atkins diet!!! Some people talk shit about Atkins and say that it is unhealthy. It is kind of a no- brainer, I mean which is more unhealthy, eating excessive protien for a few months, or carrying around 30,60, or 90lbs of extra body fat! I was on it for 7 weeks. But I...

^^^^ I was under the impression the Protien built muscle tissue, and Carbohydrate is a enerygy scource??? I have plenty of energy, so how do the carbs factor in to actually "build" muscle? Someone please explain! And I am lifting, so wouldn't that be considered using Protien properly??? MIKE

I drink between 120-140oz of water a day, that should be enough right???? Mike

Hey guys, I am pretty new to this and I was wondering if it is possible to take in too much protien on a daily basis. I am 5'7 and weigh 165, I find it rather easy to get 275-350 grams of protien every day, sometimes more.I think that this is a good thing, just want to be sure! All of this...
