Paleo Diet and Paleolithic Diet Questions & Answers

Question

1

Hello everybody. I want to learn something from experienced people. I am paleo since 3 months it goes pretty well. I want to be exempt from compulsory military service.

Thus I have to keep and increase my body weight. I don't want to give up paleo diet. How can I gain muscle without losing weight?

Body structure,fat/muscle ratio is not important.The only important factor is number on the weighing machine.

It would probably be easier just to emigrate. – dav Dec 25 2011 at 17:02

Militaries usually look at BMI and have cut-offs. They don't have the doctor make a judgment based on body composition. They don't tend to have roles that require judgment, when a simple rule can be used. So I would tend to believe the poster. – Ambimorph Dec 26 2011 at 1:51

Yeah it would suck to have healthy, muscular soldiers. – Kasra Dec 26 2011 at 3:03

Follow the Leangains plan as espoused by Martin Berkhan: 16 hour fasts, trained fasted, lift heavy weights. Eat low fat high carb on training days, low carb medium fat on rest days (with overall lower calories). Check out www.rippedbody.jp.

Why not gain muscle and fat at the same time? If you go for rapid muscle gain its hard to also avoid fat gain as you need to maintain higher levels of nourishment. But thats ok, once you are cleared and safe, go back on a more strict paleo that preserves lean mass but lets you begin losing the fat. Voila, awesome body!

mate when i was gaining weight i just used to do those weight gain shakes, do the gym 5 days a week and eat like a horse. if you have access to anabolic steroids or GH this is the fastest way to put on weight, probably not the safest. Train a lot eat a lot and rest. Concentrate on compound excersises: Bench, squat, chins, dips etc
