Last time I checked, this was a cycling forum where thin is in and fat is well..
The fat we eat is the fat we wear and the carbs we eat is the carbs we get to think, ride, train, live, work, contribute etc with. Carbs =glycogen and glycogen = fun!
You EVER seen a rider run out of fat or protein on a ride? Doesnt happen!
If protein built muscle then how come society is so physically weak in general? We are so glucose exhausted and overdosed on fat and protein that we need power steering in our cars to drive to the shop to pick up more protein powders and the like.
We went for a bunch ride the other day. I ended up pushing the body builder dude up the hills. Was a great sight. The stick insect pushing the bumble bee.
Glycogen pushing fat and protein. Dr McDougall pushing Dr Atkins.
Guess who had more fun that night?
Me n Freelee eat more carbs than anyone we personally know. We NEVER restrict carb intake. Nobody sane should.
