Welcoming Committee / Re: Bodybuilder/Model going Paleo for longevity benefits
« on: October 29, 2010, 03:34:24 am »Well, I agree that the minority here who were underweight pre-RPD diet do seem to have problems re gaining weight on a rawpalaeodiet minus raw dairy, but the others generally find they reach a normal weight and build muscle faster than on a SAD diet, provided they do the usual relevant exercises as before, of course.
Interesting anecdote:- Schwarzenegger in his autobiography said that the canteen food he had in the Austrian Army was so overcooked that he was forced to eat twice as much cooked meat as normal in order to maintain his huge bulk, and then he had to do twice as much exercise in order to get rid of the resulting extra fat.
That is indeed very interesting. Got a source on that? Would love to read some more.
