Weight loss

Maybe you should do some research... Carbs have EVERYTHING to do with muscle loss, as well as building muscle, and building fat stores.

Maybe post a source where it says specifically "High carb" causes muscle loss, as that was your statement, additionally you yourself admitted "Yes I know not strictly true"

So maybe you should do some research
 
First you say its not true - then you say having high fat makes muscle loss worse

What the hell? When did I say that?!

I know a lot of high fat people that would crush most people, power lifters are often high fat and I guarantee they eat high carb

Well duh, the end game of carbs is anabolic! You are either building muscle, or building fat stores!
 
You said it right here

That's your body cannibalizing your muscles. That's what happens when your carbs are high... your body can't burn fat, so it turns your muscles into sugar.

Yes I know not strictly true, but I was making the point that if you are eating carbs all the time you will not have the metabolic machinery in place to burn fat, and this is what makes muscle loss worse .

Now I am over quoting your sillyness for today

Yes I agreed with Sinbad that it was not strictly true, because he brought in the protein issue which I had side stepped, because I was making a point about a high carb diet turning off your fat burning machinery in the first place.

Whether you're high carb or low carb, if you don't eat enough protein you will have muscle loss.

If you're eating low FAT and low carb, you will probably kick off gluconeogenesis to fuel essential functions- in which you will probably be cannibalising muscle too unless you're eating loads of protein which is unlikely on a low fat low carb diet.
 
Thats like saying A caused Z without including essential contributors B C and D

IT is false BECAUSE you side stepped protein, include low protein with very high carb and I will agree you'll end up with a large person with little muscle.

Its like me saying LOW CARB WILL KILL YOU!!!!!!!!

Oh but I'll side step that you'd need low fat and low protein and that you need to drink a glass of mercury

I can be pretty mean to the fat cow with issues if need be? That way everyone can carry on with their arguments for a while!?

I do this because I'm a helper. I love to help others...
 
Is that an invitation to be mean?!?!!?!:wtf:

Hahah if you want abuse yes :p. The guys who are unnecessarily mean just because they think they're big shots have zero respect from me and the only thing their being mean does is make me laugh and feel better about myself. Other than that I'm actually just saying I don't mind a bit of arguing or teasing or insults. Nobody around here knows who I am anyway. Ok maybe one or two. But if someone says anything that really offends me, I'll sort it out with them personally.
