Cut Sugar Out

Caffeine does little to me, since caffeine merely triggers a sugar rush

The hell kind of broscience is this?

if you are working out, don't cut red meat. meat is good.

i however fully agree with cutting the sugar. also, when you eat sugar in the evening, it blocks the creation of hormones (namely testosterone and muscle growth hormone). on the other hand, a good amount of fat (think few brasilian nuts and almonds) before bedtime boosts the creation of those hormones (and you need to have enough of vitamins A and D - so fish)

Lots of direction over there if you're so inclined...

i eat pretty low sugar year round, and i also have veins popping out year round too.. but cutting red meat and fat isn't necessary, in fact, when you get so lean you will eventually need the calories to grow muscle..

as a general rule just eating "real food" that didn't come in a box will get you ripped..

I eat lbs of red meat weekly, I'm 5'9 185 lean with a 500lb deadlift. Don't cut out sugar and red meat entirely it simply isn't worth it. Limiting sugar is a good idea. You may not want to get your only protein off of red meat but you actually need far more fat than these idiotic articles you find on bodybuilding websites. Low fat diets are for those on the stuff as it plays a major role in natural testosterone production. Go to a big gym and find a guy who's massive, ripped whatever and not on steroids, he probably eats lots of red meat.

The only time I get "Sugar" is when a fat black woman calls me it.

I wouldn't cut out fats and carbs completely. You need a decent amount of fats to regulate your testosterone levels - low fat diets are a bad idea for men. Complex carbs are also a requirement for building muscle (protein synthesis) so don't go too low on them either.

I completely agree about sugar though. It is disgusting.

Motivation increases because sugar leads to insulin release which leads to drowsiness

If it wasn't caught, killed or grown it isn't food.

17 hours ago, someone posted a thread about cutting out sugar, with over 180 replies. It is still on the front page.

Why did you feel the need to make a new thread about the exact same subject? This thread is completely pointless.

You realize simple carbs are sugars, right?

the war on sugar is insane. just like the war on fats. It's like saying you're not going to breathe air because you're protesting smog.

I'm not saying you're wrong to cut out complex,refined carbs but to actually make a good physiological change, it's going to help to understand what you're actually targeting, instead of just trying to eat 0 carbs, because they're literally all sugars biochemically.

if you pair every meal with supplements that should tell you how you well your present diet fits your need.

OP knows what's up. Also why would eating healthy be in any way beta? It's obviously more beta to just succumb to culture pressure and eat shit like the rest of them. Going you own way in dieting (and staying the course) is infinitely more demanding and thus not beta at all.

Tried this for my November challenge and it was awesome. Obviously, December was a month of vice with all the stuff but to me it kinda felt like poison so now I'm back to no sugar.

The biggest (but not that hard) part for me was cutting the soft drinks and chocolate treats. Anything sweet that comes in a wrapper goes out. But I need to go deeper. Will try to minimize the amount of basic store-bought food and maximize whole-food and farmer's market purchases.

Man I gotta start running again, you reminded me of the morning runner's high it's so awesome, nothing like it!
