  • No dietary carbohydrates?
    That has no place on this forum, and i will combat any comments made about low carbohydrate diets for cyclists.
    I bid you good day.

    • a bunch. low carb for pretty much anyone is rubbish i'd say.

    there is really only so much protein a person can eat in a day, so if you are low low carb then most of the calories in the diet will be fat calories. and that is a path to long term health problems regardless of the good/bad fat malarky.

    unless you are a baby, a growing child or trying to build huge muscles (combined with heavy lifting - they dont grow on their own), then you probably already get enough protein in your diet without trying to go high protein. instead of trying to up protein calories and cut out carb calories, best bet is reduce the fat calories and make up the difference with carb cals.
