It's a magical time
Fortunately according to most sources Rielly works out like a machine so those carbs have less of an impact.
No doubt that cutting down carbs especially pasta and bread yields results but man it's a hard thing to do. I don't know how people can do it over an extended period. I'd lose my will to live.
If a diet was 80% veggies, they would take in a TON of carbs. The new thing for the last 10 years has been the "Slow burning" carbs.... Yams, veggies, brown rice, whole wheat bread..... replacing the white starches/sugars.... Most people don't know that a white starch, such as a potato white bread etc, breaks down as sugar in the body.
body builders call it the "clean" diet. For meats, mostly only chicken, turkey, and fish. With the rare "lean" red meat.
But when you look at the diet of a athlete that trains like crazy, take a Phelps (sp?) that swimmer.... his diet is insane, something like 8000 calories a day, and if you eat 8000 calories a day, it impossible to eat "clean" since clean foods don't bring a ton of calories.
My oldest son, who is in AAA for the Redwings, is a health nut...... NUTS I tells ya! He since has had to learn to cook, as Mother and I are not cooking 8-10 times a day.
He also now delivers flyers for extra money to pay for it..... Chicken prices are out of this world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
