Scott F. replied to Scott F.'s topic in General Health and Wellness Discussion

If I were a world class athlete I think i could debate this a tad bit better. I am getting to the above average mark for the average 56 year old. Meat and fat will serve me just fine and provide all the energy I need, both for the day to day as well as my lifting/walking/working out. I have not, nor do I anticipate taking things to that level. However, since I have not gotten crazy-go-get'em energy from meats and fats I have developed a steady energy that lasts all day for me now. I don't see crazy bounce off the wall energy just showing up anytime soon. I am not saying fat can't be the answer but I am saying I see the theory and based on me, I can see where it could work. But also based on me I am not physically challenging the limitations of fat. I know one person who uses a couple sweet potatoes on Thursdays before he does what I consider a long a pretty much grueling workout on Fridays and the rest of the week strict carnivore. As soon as this topic popped a few weeks ago I have looked for him in the gym for some insight. Still a very interesting topic for me. Scott

doesn't our liver replace glucose in our cells without eating carbs?? that's my understanding. As for myself and the few I've talked to we feel as strong if not stronger just eating fat

Just one cup of black decaf coffee plus H2O for the rest of today. Going for a hamburger tomorrow at our favorite little roadside stand. They are closing for Winter this Sunday so we need one of their burgers before the snow flies for the next 6 months! (Sucky Wisconsin life)

Why are so many quitting Carnivore?
Why are so many quitting Carnivore?

Scott F. replied to Mary's topic in Everyday Chit Chat & Off-topic Discussion

I wouldn't change anything. It is a part of the story. "almost quit" can be translated any number of ways. Just like the post above on 'carbs and energy' if I read about it, then post "I think this could work" I might give it a try and then decide my current path is working. Well, then "I almost quit" carnivore. LOL Tons of people have started carnivore and a very high percentage have quit. My son started, then me, then my wife, then two guys at work. Me and one other guy at work are still carnivore. I'm strict and he occasionally indulges, maybe once or twice per month. Depending on how one defines carnivore in my group 80% of people who start end up quitting. Those percentages sort of indicate the other 20% has 'almost quit' at some point. LOL Scott

Scott F. replied to Scott F.'s topic in General Health and Wellness Discussion

I have read it both ways, but I think that lands on the intensity and duration of the exercise more so than the different fuel sources. A person pushing themselves to their maximum effort every session could answer that question better than me as my exercising, lifting and walking is effective but let's just say 'I don't leave it all on the field every time out'. The paper and log analogy is spot on. The paper will always burn faster and possibly hotter for a brief moment and once the log is burning the steady burn and the hot coals remain constant unless a piece breaks off and there may be a spurt of burn/flame but nothing like the spike of the paper. If I were a super-duper athlete doing super-duper work, I can see the need for that spurt of energy to get thru the workout. What I see as being the true advantage of the scenario is that when the paper flames up and is gone the steadiness of the fire from the log remains constant. it is not like the fire dims or goes out without the continual adding of the paper. If that makes any sense at all. If at any point my workouts ramp to the point I am at an energy deficit I could see this as an option. The workouts and the loads are ever increasing but the "log" is holding me just fine right now. LOL Still a very interesting topic. Scott
