Debunking Reverse Dieting

June 20, 2019

once we've got that we've dieted down we've done the show you're reticent to reverse diet you'll just chuck them back up there here's the thing if you set them up correctly there's no reason to reverse diet or do anything else because in fact the majority of our clients once they've done a show their their statement is can we start the diet now i'm fucking tired of eating so where the fuck do you hear that yeah but i mean there Surely there must be cases where you do have to bring those. I mean, there's always a perfect world. When you're looking at the elite level of like professional bodybuilding where, yeah, like going from amateur to professional, you're going to have to go to a little bit more extremes. More extremes of the supplementation, more extremes of the drugs, more extreme of the dieting because that's, you know, that's their job. And you have to get them to a silly, ridiculous level of conditioning. To get fucking feathering on the ass cheeks and the lower back, you're going to have to diet out of that. But I think reverse dieting is not the answer. They've already dieted for, say, 24 weeks. Why the fuck would you diet for 24 weeks to get them out of that? 100%. Just add the fucking calories back and then pump their training volume up.
