I always distinguish between "cardio for fat loss" and "weight lifting" they both require different nutrition and timing. Usually (ask any body builder) and you can probabbly testify to this as well if you restrict carbs too long your workouts will normally suffer. Most bodybuilders,wrestlers boxers etc. get very efficient at burning fat for fuel that's why the seem to be able to bulk and cut instantely but normally increase cardio, reduce lifting and carbs simoutaneously, when they start lifting again up goes the carb intake and reduction in cardio. the average body cannot do this. Reducing fat with diet and especially carb restriction is fairly easy but you cannot build muscle like that so by using combined strategies you Can do both but you need to start with basics and taylor from there.

great, I was probably reading more into it and wasn't as clear as I needed, my fault.. Thanks CFD!! Just wanted to make sure we all had the same understanding. We all good... nothing to see here, everyone move along!
And speedy, I was on RYR for 3 months and it didn't do a thang for me.. it was frustrating to be on a restricted, clean diet for 6 months and it didn't make a difference. Now if it had made a difference, the 6 months of healthy eating would have felt like a win!
