Default Muscle and Fitness Magazine article?

I saw this at the checkout but didn't get a chance to read it (the people on the cover are way too scary looking anyway!), apparently they have an article this week questioning the value of low carb.

Anyone read it?

Default yep

I am pretty sure that it was Muscle Media, but all of the muscle mags have been beating on low-carb diets for as long as I can remember.

They downplay it becuase all of the mags are run by ....

MAJOR SUPPLEMENT COMPANIES

They generally make carb-containing protein shakes, bars, atc.

Occassionally, they do publish articles that show how lo-carb diets are effective, but they are also quick to add that they are only for short term, and not a way-of-life.

It all may change soon ... alot of smaller companies are carrying lo/no carb products ... Even EAS (major!) started carrying lo-carb verions of it's popular Myoplex meal replacement shakes and bars.

Now if only they didn't charge an arm and a leg for them ... LOL

Smile LOL

Good one! LOL

Well, I promise that I will have a head soon ... Since we are starting back on the CKD in a few days, new "BEFORE" pics are gonna be taken ... I am gonna use that as my profile shot to act as motivation for me. If I have to see that picture everyday, it will make me drag my butt to the gym/do cardio even when I am completely exhausted.

I think picture day will be Saturday or Sunday ... depending on the weather here in NJ.
