    So Mu ch Con fu s ion

    This program couldnt have come out at a better time. While no one has

    begun dieting yet, everyone is starting to think more and more about warm

    weather. Where theres warm weather theres less clothing and less chance

    to hide all that muscle you added during your previous bulk, which lasted

    from September to March. It seems at the same time every year the

    majority of the population gets fat loss crazy. Everyone wants to drop fat to

    show off their mid-section, people want abs. Unfortunately this article

    doesnt apply to those people. While the majority of people would be happy

    with some abdominal definition, this program is written for the male at 10%

    and the female at 12-15% who want to get even lower. The problem exists

    that the large percentage of nutrition and weight loss articles and books out

    there are written for the majority of the population. This isnt; this is the

    article that will take you from looking lean to ripped, that will take your

    glutes from looking Okay to sick.

    Cov er in g Th e Bas ics

    The Law of Thermodynamics states that energy in versus energy out dictates

    our body composition. More or less, if we want to lose weight, we have to

    make sure we take in fewer calories than we burn off. If we want to get

    bigger, we need to have more calories in when compared to the energy that

    we burn. This argument is flawed in so many ways, yet that is how people

    looking to get super lean still view body fat reduction.

    To put it bluntly, decreasing calories sucks. Okay, I know everyone knows

    that; if it were easy, wed all be lean and there would be no failed diets. Why

    are decreasing calories a no-win situation? When calories are restricted, our

    bodies internal thermostat adjusts to the amount of carbohydrates and

    protein that we ingested (1). By not giving our engine any fuel, less calories

    and fewer fat are burned.

    Think about the metabolic slowdown for a second, it actually makes a lot of

    sense. Our body realizes a decrease in energy coming in and energy goingout. So now our body has to get more mileage out of our stored energy (fat)

    and ensure that we can keep functioning normally (2,3,4). It is at this point

    between functioning and not functioning that people begin to fail on their

    diets and consume whatever foods they feel like eating. Recent research

    has shown that lipoprotein lipase, a fat storing enzyme, increases greatly

    when calories are restricted (5,6). While this is happening production of the

    thyroid hormone (T3) rapidly decreases, which will maintain muscle mass,but also body fat (7,8,9,10,11,12).

    The thyroid is the main regulator of overall metabolism. It sets our body

    temperature rate and adjusts other metabolic processes such as protein

    synthesis. The main culprit in failed weight loss is the metabolic slowdown

    caused by a decrease in active thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormones adjust to

    the level of muscle mass that the body possesses. When you lose muscle,

    the thyroid gland secrets less, hence why doing increased amount of aerobic

    activity isnt the smartest thing.

    So while performing aerobic work to expend more calories seems natural, it

    just contributes to the muscle mass lose due to caloric restriction. Muscle

    loss resulting from restrictive dieting results from 20-40% of total weight

    lost (13,14,15,16). If we want the best body around, we cant afford to lose

    any muscle, it is the most metabolically challenging thing that we have.

    When the dieter resumes normal eating, lipoprotein lipase activity remains

    elevated while our metabolic rate stays depressed causing us to regain the

    fat back and maybe even add more (17).

    Eat ing Mor e To Lose Mor e

    With the recent work of Dr. John Berardi, more attention has been paid to

    the concept of eating more to lose more body fat. G-Flux, as Berardi calls it,

    is a concept of increasing caloric intake to support high levels of activity.

    This helps to support muscle mass, as well as enhance the quality of

    workouts, since we are able to maintain a stable insulin base. As previously

    discussed, restricting calories will slow down our metabolism, consumingmore calories will encourage our metabolic rate to operate quicker to use the

    extra calories (18.19). In addition thyroid activity (20,21), thermogenesis

    (22,23) and leptin (24) levels will each increase with overfeeding, which is

    going to create an anabolic environment.

    How can eating more benefit you and your attempts to become super lean?

    Lets look at a simple progression. Energy comes into the body from what

    we eat and leaves from what we do, okay that has been established. If we

    have more calories coming in than we burn, our metabolism has to work

    harder to use all of those calories, the more calories burned. The more

    efficiently we train the more muscle tissue needs calories to rebuild. Muscle

    requires more energy to burn and maintain and doesnt provide enough

    energy when it breaks down.

    My clients typically report uncontrolled hunger on my programs and that is

    intentional. If I am trying to get them lean, I want them to eat. Some of

    the fitness/figure competitors that I have worked with in the past go into

    contests eating more. Madness right? If every other competitor is going

    into the contest in a state of caloric restriction, how much muscle is he or

    she building? Being anabolic means that you are building muscle AND losing

    fat. I want my clients to go into contests growing. The more you eat the

    more weight you gain right? Research has shown that a direct linear

    relationship between eating more and weight gain simply doesnt exist

    (25,26).

    Crea t ing t he Anabo l i c Env i ron m ent

    Insulin sensitivity and adding muscle mass while leaning out

    are all extrem ely correlated. - Jimm y Smith

    So weve talked about it before. We need to decrease calories to burn fat

    and increase calories to stimulate new tissue. The problem is without a high

    metabolism we cannot build muscle and lose fat at the same time.

    Everything is different when we are attempting to maximize both lean

    muscle and body fat reduction. Our main goal should be to control our

    insulin, not eliminate insulin resistance, as most people have claimed. Every

    time we eat we essentially give ourselves a shot of insulin, the degree of the

    shot depends on what we eat. The majority of the U.S. population is insulin

    resistant at the skeletal muscle level (keep in mind you can be insulin

    resistant elsewhere as well), which attributes to numerous factors such as:

    High trans/saturated fat diet Low fat diet Decreased essential fatty acid intake (fish oil) Increased carbohydrate diet Decreased intake of vegetables Increased stress Decreased sleep Increased sugar intake

    Having a high degree of insulin sensitivity means that a minimal amount of

    insulin will generate a large response; while being insulin resistant means

    that more insulin is needed to have the same effects. The issue with insulin

    is that it controls every other major hormone in our body. You can put it

    anyway youd like, but when we have fast insulin fluctuations we raise our

    cortisol, which in turn lowers are androgens (testosterone, DHEA and growth

    hormone). Abdominal obesity is correlated with low growth hormone (27)

    and we know that GH and insulin are antagonists (28). If you further look at

    the hormonal downfall, well see that rapid changes in insulin levels not only

    make us age faster, but also raise our cortisol even more. Well add more

    body fat, which will increase the estrogen in both males and females as well.

    The insulin Sites in Women and Men

    Looking deeper into the difference between chunky/lean and super lean

    individuals we also must mention cortisol. This highly catabolic hormone is

    released in response to stress. When people decide to really get lean, they

    perform high amounts of aerobic work, decrease calories rapidly and train

    more. The effect on the body is increased stress production. Increased

    stress combined with falling blood sugar levels causes the body to react to

    what it deems as a dramatic event and release cortisol (29,30). Cortisol will

    effect the T4-T3 conversion, as well as destroy muscle, promote insulin

    resistance and suppress the immune system.

    Ever have a diet fail because you got sick a week or two into it? That is likely

    due to the suppressed immune system that is caused by the declining blood

    sugar level and increased cortisol level. Now again look at what insulin

    resistance and increased stress does to our androgens, it decreases them.

    What was all the research around the supplement glutamine when it first

    became popular? It was that glutamine helps immune system function. Now

    I cant find any studies on my next statement so if you need a study to

    validate everything then close your eyes, but I strongly believe that immune

    system function highly effects the anabolic environment of the body.

    Now imagine that we continually stay on a caloric restricted meal. Even if

    we are eating multiple meals throughout the day, we not only have a

    depressed thyroid, but also our growth hormone and testosterone output is

    decreased as well. What do you think this does to the semi-successful

    dieter? It throws them into the negative downfall even more. By periodically

    shifting our eating habits to a higher energy intake we can change all of this

    in a hurry. We have now shifted back into an anabolic environment. The

    following table summarizes why it is important to eat more and have a

    higher metabolism to build muscle and lose fat.

    Having knowledge is one thing and putting knowledge to use to get results is

    a completely separate action. Weve covered the hormonal aspects of dieting

    and made it pretty clear why we need to ingest more food to lose fat andadd muscle. I know the question in your head is, How can I consistently eat

    more and lose body fat? The answer is you cant, you are going to have a

    caloric deficit at some point and you are going to have a caloric surplus as

    well. This is going to be accomplished with a cycling approach that aims to

    maximize the hormonal advantages of overeating and minimizes the damage

    of undereating.

    Cycling diets have become extremely popular in recent months and with

    good reason. They are the closest things we are going to get to diet

    perfection, we can eat some of the foods we love and we avoid all of

    negative characteristics associated with dieting. This type of eating allows us

    to use a mix of low carb and carb dominant days depending on what our

    training looks like for that particular day.

    It is important to note that not all workouts are followed with a protein-

    carbohydrate meal. I understand the science and theory behind nutrient

    timing, which states that at certain points during the day our body can

    handle carbohydrates better than other times. Those good times being

    when we first rise in the morning and immediately after and within 60

    minutes post exercise. Our body is more insulin sensitive at those times

    regardless of how we fare the rest of the day so we are primed for muscle

    growth, since carbohydrate plus protein will create a better insulin response,

    which at this time is a good thing, hence faster protein synthesis and

    glucose restoration.

    Hypertrophy and strength arent going to be affected when carbohydrate

    intake is limited; it is affected when energy intake is too low. Theres a

    difference there. Im not saying that a protein only post workout meal is

    better or that a protein and carbohydrate meal isnt good. Im simply

    stating that in a cycling approach we can have some days where we have a

    carb less protein meal. Ive found this to be extremely effective with

    individuals who are already relatively lean. I prefer to use a post workout

    shake that contains the following:

    20 to 40 grams of whey/casein protein 10 to 20 grams of glycine 5 to 10 grams of branch chained amino acids 5 grams of leucine

    Is this out of fear of wrecking our fat loss efforts? Not at all - the majority of

    our sessions arent glycogen-depleting workouts unless that is the point of

    the session. Combine that with the fact that we are cycling our carbohydrate

    approach so that well likely have enough glycogen to get us through a few

    workouts without ingesting carbs period. Another issue that I have with

    ingesting large amounts of carbs post workout is that not every workout can

    be demanding enough to warrant consistent high, fast carb post workout

    meals. If we could have these demanding workouts every session, wed

    likely be causing more stress than our body can handle.

    While the theory of nutrient timing is great, when we are attempting to get

    leaner than we have been, we must do something different. We can fix our

    insulin sensitivity, but still manage to have a high amount of insulin

    secretion from the carbs we ingest. If we consume a moderate to large carb

    meal post workout and find that we have a stable energy level, then we

    have normal or low levels of insulin secretion from the carbs we have

    consumed. However, if we get hungry quickly or crash, then we over

    secrete insulin, which is going to cause our blood pressure to crash.

    Remember we are trying to limit those peaks and valleys.

    Now the nutrient timing approach can be very beneficial as well. If we are

    performing body part splits, then we will ingest carbs post workout on the

    days that we train the muscle we want to improve. If we are performing full

    body workouts, then we will pick the workout in which we ingest the post

    workout carbs. In any case, here is what the post workout meal will look

    like.

    20 to 30 grams of whey protein 60 to 90 grams of carbs 10 grams of glycine 5 to 10 grams of branched chain amino acids 5 grams of leucine

    The An abo l i c Tr igger

    Id like to spend a few moments discussing L-Leucine, which is the new it

    supplement in recent times. L-leucine has been getting notice for being the

    trigger for anti-catabolic, anabolic activity due to its ability to activate themTOR pathway, one of the bodies main protein synthesis activators. When

    leucine content is low, the body is signaled to believe that there is not

    enough protein available and the mTOR pathway becomes inactivate. With

    leucine content high in the body however, the mTOR pathway is activated

    thus increasing muscle protein synthesis. This will allow us to stay in a

    constant state of growth as we diet.

    Mak ing t he Fi re Bur n

    A big component of this cycling approach is that our training must be

    smarter and harder. Does it make sense to train as much when we are

    consuming less and more? No it doesnt so we must train according to the

    energy that we have coming in. On our low carb days we will focus on just

    weight training, thats it, we train then go home. On our higher carb days,

    were going to consume additional aerobic work following our training

    session. Just as we cycle our nutrients, we also need to fluctuate our energy

    expenditure. It makes little to no sense to consistently perform more and

    more work, after all that is what the majority of people do to lose weight and

    we can tell it really doesnt work. By performing more work as we ingest

    more, we ensure that those extra nutrients will be shuttled to the muscle.

    I want to briefly touch on supplementation for fat loss. It is my firm belief

    that any supplement that helps us improve our insulin sensitivity will also

    help us to grow. While I use a wide range of supplements and dosages, here

    are some of the main ones.

    Fish Oil - Without going into too much detail, omega-3 fish oils do

    everything - get use to it and take them. While I have seen some people

    recommend up to 20 grams and others recommend 3-5 grams, I have found

    very good success with taking 9 grams per day. Be sure to check the label,

    as each brand tends to dose their oil differently.

    R-ALA - This has become a very controversial supplement and I am not

    going to get into that here. What I will say is that there is still some very

    good research on it and even if you do not believe that research, what we

    cannot argue with is that dieting tends to cause our body to release more

    toxins as we lose body fat. These toxins have a very high pro-inflammatory

    response and R-ALA is very anti-inflammatory.

    Sesam e Oi l - This has become extremely popular recently and with good

    reason. Sesame Oil has been shown to increase fatty oxidation, as well as

    decrease inflammation, which again is big during dieting.

    Where do the cheat meals go? I have played with both a full day reefed and

    3-4 individual cheat meals during the week. I find that the multiple cheat

    meal option works better for two reasons. First, it is very hard to

    psychologically recover from a full day of eating anything you want. I also

    feel we will do more damage to our insulin sensitivity by not paying attention

    to our diet for one day than we will if we have four cheat meals. Secondly,

    by having a few cheat meals during the week, we are able to recover better,

    since that cheat meal is centered on two good meals. The trick here is to

    consistently follow your eating times. Dont eat a whole pizza then not eat

    for 4 more hours.

    We are going to focus on two different types of training methods while we

    are attempting to get lean while adding muscle. The first is termed aRegular Workout, which consists of both a neural and a mechanical

    stimulus. We can definitely get stronger as we get leaner, but at the same

    time we also need mechanical tension for muscle growth. Why do I combine

    both low reps and high reps in a workout? The lower rep-high set work is

    going to use very little glucose; the primary energy system is going to be

    ATP and creatine phosphate. Since our energy stores arent going to deplete,

    the majority of the rebuilding is going to be for new contractile proteins.

    We will also be performing our regular workouts after our higher carb days

    so that we can take advantage of glycogen super compensation, which will

    increase strength through mechanical efforts. The higher rep work will place

    both optimal growth stimulus and stress on the muscle, but will also serve to

    deplete glycogen as well. So a Regular Workout would look like the

    following:

    Depletion workouts will set us up for glycogen super compensation which will

    increase insulin sensitivity, glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis. Glycogen

    depletion also increases fat utilization by the muscle and causes a high

    increase in lactate, which will increase growth hormone secretion. The

    problem with traditional pump training is that it is used with body part splits.

    Glycogen super compensation is only going to occur in the muscles trained

    so we must utilize full body workouts. Heres an example:

    Id like to touch briefly on cardio as well. While for the majority of the

    population I am a fan of high intensity work, I do feel that slow steady state

    work can be very beneficial for those who are trying to go from lean to super

    lean. We cannot ignore the fat oxidation that occurs from lower intensity

    work, as well as the effect of this type of work on stubborn body fat. In
