Honestly the only way to loss fat is CARDIO AND A PROPER DIET
TweetI'm only dieting for 1 week, so I want the maximum fat loss in this time. Here's the plan:
Day 1: less than 1000 calories, all from very lean meat
Day 2: less than 1500 calories, less than 50g carbs
Day 3: between 2500 and 3000 calories
Repeat...
Also using 500mg DNP/day and 500mg test/wk
5'10'' 202lbs. after a day of very little food (empty stomach)
I'm thinking this cyclic method will keep my body from switching to survival mode (and slowing T3 production) while allowing me to lose the most fat possible in 1 week. Any comments or suggestions?

EVERYTHING I SAY IS ONLY AN OPINION.
TweetActually it's not the ONLY way at all but it is a good way. Everyone is different.Originally posted by scorpion

Having said that the diet seems interesting and I'm sure it will work and I'm assuming you know how your body works as well. Try it but on the next week eat completely normal for a few days or the whole week before repeating again. I did a diet similar to this last year and lost about 30 pounds in almost 6 weeks with no loss in strength. An ECYA based fat burner was used of course as well.
BTW - I did this and did 0 cardio.

Tweetactually, cardio is not nearly as good as weight training. Wieght training builds muscle, which increases fat burning potential 24/7, cardio will burn a certain amount while your doing it, and increase burning for a couple hours, but then the benefit other than cardio fitness is over.
not saying to quite the cardio, b/c it does help a lot...just that its not really the best thing going IMO.
TweetVery true. Muscle is metabolically active. For every pound of muscle you build you burn up to 50 calories a day doing nothing. That's not counting the extra calories you burn moving that muscle. Imagine having built 10 pounds of muscle. That's an additional 500 calories a day doing 0. Now have that muscle and work out and you burn even more. Good stuff.Originally posted by BIG_GUNS_21

TweetThere has to be something wrong with that figure. So a person who has 50 more pounds of muscle than me has a maintenance diet of around 6000 calories?!? (based on my maintenance of about 3500). If that's true, I need to start using more juiceI couldn't imagine getting to eat that much every day and not feel bad

TweetNope it's true. 35-50 calories extra per pound of muscle. Scientific fact.Originally posted by AnotherUser

TweetCardio only burns cals/fat while doing it, unless high intensity. Weight lifting burns cals/fat for up to 36 hours. Try doing T-Mag's Meltdown training, its a *****. Go look it up and try, I dare ya to do it.
I eat at least 6 times a day to build my body

TweetThe diet is assumed. What little food I am consuming right now is considered VERY clean. 95% of my carbs come from Uncle Sam's cereal (certified low glycemic, 10g fiber per serving, +flax seeds) and oatmeal (maid with water, nothing added to it). My protein is from protein shakes, 4% or 7% fat hamburger meat, chicken, turkey, and egg whites. Even while I'm bulking I stick almost entirely to these foods, I just force myself to eat every hour to hour and a half to get the necessary calories. So please, diet is assumed.
