My cutting diet

From Nark's thread
To get lbm
225lbs /1.3 (30%)

225*30=173 or 78kg

370+(21.6x78)
= 2054 (BMR with lbm)

= 3194.94 cals =AMR
AMR-500=2684
1800 is pushing it, or no?

In my opinion you got to have huge amounts of muscle to diet eficiently with over 2000 cals.I repeat,IN MY OPINION,based on my experiences.In theory it looks ok,trust me i've tried it,but it dosn't work for me.Id'd cut all the carbs.Personally ,i diet only with protein,it can never be to much ,and if need be can be used for energy too,so why carbs?At first it was tough as i didn't have energy but after a week my body got used to using protein as a energy source so all got back to normal.1800 cals =400 g protein +22 g of fat=aprox 1 kilo of chicken breast.That's what i do,adjusting the numbers as i have 205 lb at 10%.Good luck!

PM me if you want to talk sometime, but that is gross misinformation.

how did you manage to get 400 g of protein with only 1800 cals??

The numbers are aproximative,that means more or less,i gave that as an example.If you do the maths 400x4=1600 plus the hidden fats that can be more or less than 20 grams....so what's the problem?

visu that diet might have worked for you, but does'nt mean it is going to work for everyone. I think diet with no carbs in a long term would not be a good idea.
