The Anabolic Diet: Approach to Bodybuilding Diet with High-fat, High Protein and Low Carbs

By Andrew Low

The anabolic diet is a low-carbohydrate diet based on alternating low-carb and high-carb days.

Alternating carbohydrate intake allows you to burn more fat as fuel. This allows you to preserve as much muscle mass as possible.

In a typical diet, all three macronutrients - carbohydrates, protein, and fat - are used. For athletes, weightlifters, and bodybuilders, this natural process causes concern when they want to lose weight yet preserve muscle gains. The benefit of the anabolic diet is that it's not calorie-restrictive.

The body needs calories to maintain muscle mass, so any decrease in caloric intake could cause a loss of lean body tissue. Instead, the plan promises to alter metabolism to favor fat, allowing you to eat a normal amount of calories while still seeing a reduction in body fat percentage.
