I am a firm believer in "Muscle, not Momentum!" Lower the weight a little, keep good form and reap the benefits. Who cares that you can curl 100 pounds or pull down 200 lbs if you are using your entire body to do it?????
...that is all.....I will get off my soap box now!  |
AMEN!!

The fat doesn't worry me, when I did KETO last year I ate nothing but fats and protein (NO carbs) and got down to 7% BF. Felt weird but hey haha.
I may do one can of beans instead of two, or something like that...maybe 1.5lbs of beef instead of two.
I do the 94% lean beef or turkey for my meals using ground meat.

I could eat my weight in Ground turkey. I can see where you are coming from on the carbs, but I'm not a anti carb freak I just eat healthy and go with the flow. As long as you be sure to cook your meat seperate and drain all the grease its not that bad, cook out some of that yucky fat.
