Ive started a Paleo diet recently consisting of your meats,nuts,eggs,veggies and fruits. If anyone is familiar with the paleo it cuts out most and all grains,sugars (except fruit) and wheat starch products etc. Since doing this iv felt weaker and more lethargic obviously do the fact that I'm hardly getting any carbs. My question is can I still acquire muscle growth through this without the carbs? Also too, Everyone has a hollywood star they envy and mine is joe manganiello. His dieting consist of almost the same thing except he eats a half cup of oatmeal in the morning and the rest are veggies and fruits and protein. Hes ripped, but how does he manage energy and size through this? lmk and correct me if im doing anything wrong to help me thanks.
Paleo diet concerns and ?s why do something if it makes you feel like crap? bottomline is calories in v. calories out, you dont need to follow a diet plan to accomplish your goals
Paleo diet concerns and ?s Any particular reason why? Iv kept up with the lifestyle cut diet by derek charlebois which allowed starchy carbs in kept your meals 1-3,but I figured I give getting my carbs through some fruit and veggies a try, but My energy sucks D*** and Im shredding again for summer.
Paleo diet concerns and ?s Do yourself a favor and do NOT eat a fad diet just because some celebrity claims he eats a particular way. The paleo diet is just another in the long list of fad diets that unnecessarily exclude foods for no reason whatsoever. You would do yourself a great and lifelong favor if you forget all the garbage and learn to compose a varied, balanced and enjoyable diet that allows you to reach your goals and maintain proper health as best can be.
