Summary
This week we are putting to rest the long held debate of the low carb vs the low fat diet. Crowder explains what carbs and fat do in dietary terms and the fact that both low carb and low fat diets have benefits and uses unique to themselves.
What is Covered
- Defining protein carbs and fat in dietary terms
- Calories and units of energy
- Calories in equal calories out but determining what these terms are is not so straightforward
- To lose weight you must be in a caloric deficit
- Carbs are the easiest macronutrient for the body to use as energy
- Athletes perform their best with carbs
- .75 - 1 gram of protein per pound of lean body mass per day is an ideal amount of protein
- If your goal is health and not performance then lowering your carbs is a good option
- Experiment with where you feel the best with your macros
- Give your body the stimulus it requires to make adaptations in line with your goals
