Dieting, the Suckiest, But Most Important Thing in Lifting



Dieting, the Suckiest, But Most Important Thing in Lifting
            There are many diets that people have tried over the years to lose weight, fat, or create figure.  These are a couple of the most effective diets used with weightlifters that I personally have tried and seen results with.
            The most common diet used is the low calories diet.  Just like the name implies, you have to watch all the calories you eat within a day and try to cut it.  The average person eats about 2000 to 2500 calories a day.  A good start would to try to only eat 1500 calories a day, along with your normal exercise.  Working out will also burn many calories causing fat loss.  This diet is more for people with a higher body fat percentage than most elite athletes.
            The best diet to use if you are trying to cut fat is the no carb diet.  Also like the name implies you have to try to eat the least amount of carbs you possibly can, serious athletes only eat about one or two carbohydrates a day.  This works and is used by bodybuilders because carbs carry a lot of fat.  The only bad thing about this diet is that it may cause you to feel tired and have little energy at times.  This is a diet best used for athletes that only have little fat that they are trying to burn.
            Diets suck but these are some of the best, I urge you to try one of them for at least a couple weeks.  Remember, we’re all in this together, keep your stick on the ice.
