I started training when I was 17, I’m coming up to 22 now. During the 5 years I’ve put on a lot of size and strength. Three times during the 5 years I’ve tried losing fat. All times have gone wrong, I lost way to much muscle and size during the three times I attempted to shed fat. I was following t-dowg 2.0. I made a lot of effort, making sure I was doing what I had to.
Now I’m unhappy with my body fat again, I want to cut down. If anyone can point me into the direction of some good fat loss books. Would be greatly appreciated.
Look into the Anabolic/keto diet.
Basically, you eat 60-65% fat, 30-35% protein and 30g of carbs.
On the weekends you have 24-48 hour carb ups where you… ‘carb-up’
Work on your diet and make sure you lift heavy.
Supplements you should look into
CLA stacked with Green Tea (note: Cla, imo, is a waste of money. But at 5g per day - high dose - you can reap some benefits.)
Dicana by Thermolife (non-stim fat burner)
We have the resident V-Diet, which is apparently great at fat loss AND muscle preservation.
You can access Dr.Clay’s website and download the free E-book ‘Stoking the metabolic fire’.
The anabolic diet, as stated above, sounds good; like the V-Diet, I have not tried it thus cannot speak from experience (The threads are extensive, they can give you an idea of the diet).
‘Rapid fat loss’ is a diet which is self-explanatory, I believe you must purchase the book, but the author is well versed and knowledgeable, and the threads on this site seem very satisfied with the diet.
