Gimme purple Dont remember it being this hard... When he was conditioning himself for the role in The Machinist, Bale subsisted on: coffee, apples and tuna fish. What we have there is: a thermogenic, water excretion and protein to retain muscle. recomposition is a delicate and simple equation: calories in / calories out. Recomp is a reconditioning of your physiology: anabolism/catabolism and metabolism. Achieve the balance, whatever your goal is. Every macro can be represented as a ratio: C/F/P. So long as you are able to maintain an intake of your micros (micronutrients like vitamins and minerals, electrolytes); any diet is and can be healthy; nutritional. However it may be that a calorie is just a calorie, meal timing and each of the macros represent something significantly for the body. One or more may be more anabolic rather than catabolic and vice-versa. As an equilibrium. For instance, protein is more anabolic than catabolic but it is both each; represented as a percentage: 57% anabolic and 43% catabolic. At the top of my head and if Im not mistaken, carbohydrates are the most anabolic out of them all; although if you do not foster a muscle-building environment, what do you think will happen? Professional bodybuilders either understand or have a source, to apply these facts. Off-season, they bulk with carbs. And then they go keto just right before the show to lean out. They empty their glycogen in their muscles and liver; they achieve a leaner, more defined look. Striation. Make insulin work for you in the best way possible. Understand your macros, your BMR, caloric maintenance and body fat percentage, understand your goals and how the macros work. And finally, achieve that balance with your hormones. Just like strength and size, insulin, growth hormone and testosterone are not mutually exclusive.
