Amen to that Dan.. .

As in the other post: CKD is too hard to do, only benefit is the ability to pig out in the weekend, but strict CKD-ers then have to limit the fat/carb combo severely, so again: no pizza etc.

TKD is a much better approach..

I've been told to go isocaloric, but one prob is that it is more difficult then to control my food intake , as carb /junkfood cravings come back with a revenge.. doesn't help that for my endurance events I have to exclude fatty foods and only consume sugary stuff, including some junkfood...

Dr. Jekyll & Hyde indeed.

You DO work out as hard as you can with weights I hope? 3-4x wk weights, 3x/wk interval cardio. Excessive cardio breaks down muscle mass as I experience now for myself.
