Anyone tried the golden era bb diet?

BigBicep · Apr 10, 2024

hey guys, anyone here ever done the high protein, high fat low carb diet in a growth faze? If so how’d it go? Were you less bloated and would you do it again?

CJ · Apr 10, 2024

No, nor would I ever. It's absolutely ridiculous.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFuck no.

Dietary fat is not anabolic. Carbs are.

Dietary fat is the macronutrient most readily stored as body fat because it undergoes the least chemical transformation (which requires energy to accomplish, hence fat loss).
Meaning, if you eat excess dietary fat when in a surplus, you are making more of it get stored as body fat than if it were protein or carbs.

So unless your goals are to literally just get fucking fat, then don't eat excess fat.

FWIW, many people I know have felt and done great on high protein, moderate-high carbs, low fat.

I havent hear of this diet - why would u go high fat - damn.

the closest to old school BB diet would be a PALEO diet IMO.

high protein
1=1fats
low carbs

but thats not the most optimal way to build muscle cuz u need carbs for that.

with high FATS u only get FAT lol

I think this is probably a very healthy way to live. But its not ideal for muscle growth.

You know why a lot of Silver and Golden era diet and training has been left in the past as people learned more an more ?

They realized it was mostly bullshit.

Said this before , Farm strong think about Mommas cooking , Plenty of meat n tatos , maybe carrots or beets , biscuits n buttah , some gravy.

Eat right + lift heavy shit til you can't any more = Monstah

I actually did this for most of 2019. I didn't gain any muscle, and I actually lost strength while doing it.

But I did get leaner than I had been in years up to that point, so it wasn't all bad.

You would've gotten fat if you were eating in a caloric surplus, lucky that you weren't.

In a way thats almost keto and I did keto for the first like 40lbs of my weight loss ,, I wasnt counting calories then just eating and I honestly dont think I was in a calorie deficit man , I was eating fatty beef n cheese n oily fish like salmon n a ton of shrimp and chiccarones ... once i learned bacon was keto ,, forget about it haahaha

its a really odd diet , and you do end up skinny fat and feeling like shit but for what ever reason , it works for a while

Keto is NOT high protein. It's high fat, lower/moderate protein, very low/no carb.

Things like rib eyes and eggs with cheese had a way of keeping me full.

But I much prefer cutting the way I learned it from this forum, and it's way easier on my stomach.

CJ taught me how to eat , helped me keep off 100 lbs for over a year.

When some one that looks like they are 96% dick skin gives you diet and eating advice ,, you listen to them haahahah.
