Steve and/or Ritch, would you both agree eating about 2500 calories/day 5-6 meals a day with a nice clean intake would be reasonable ? Majority of it being protein, followed up by fats and carbs ? No carbs after 6... When should I do cardio if I want to maintain as much mass as possible ?
The Paleo Diet is a decent alternative.
It actually looks fairly simple, just avoid carbs and starchy vegetables pretty much. The link I was looking at didn't have a set plan, just the idea and outline, my understanding is that it's up to the dieter to create a plan that works for them, correct ?
I find the keto diet easier to follow than counting calories.
The keto diet is like any other diet it is very useful with all types of people from athletes to obese individuals. There is nothing difficult about the the keto diet that you will not experience on any other diet. People think it is extreme because of the lower carb intake...that is not even close to being correct. The keto diet has been utilized by the medical community to treat obese people for over 50 years...this is not something new. Athletes using the keto diet is new in the last 15-20 years...so if you want to talk about keto its been used far longer on sedentary obese or regular people trying to lose weight than athletes.Quote:

You need to follow calories even on a keto diet bro.If you dont,you wont lose as much..unless that's your goal--to go slowly.Im at 2500 cals a day with about 36 grams of protein per meal and the remaining of it fat.Im taking clen and t3..doing cardio and im losing 3lbs "net"(not including the water cause im already depeleted) a week.Ill be at 9% in about a week.What sucks is that i didnt calculate my BF% properly in the beginning.I thought i was at 15..but i was more or less at 20%..:(Quote:

To each their own i guess..

yep, and just watch the mirror and adjust accordingly...don't expect it to come off fast, but you don't want it to, but if it does, then add calories. Like some others, I never count calories when I diet. I compare my diet to a car that only can hold a litre of gas - its not hard to know when to eat when you're always just about to run out of gas.Quote:
