Magazine Diets

glutestriation · 05-15-2007, 02:51 AM

I would like some help to know if the diets published in magazines like FLEX or M&F are really designed for average gym dudes. People keep sayin' me it's insane for me to eat that much protein and my kidneys will burst. I am currently following a diet by flex, so I am just curious about how effective are these diets.
Thanks.

DIET...???
alot of stuff in magazines are full of shit anyway...but im intrigued to know what exactly u are eating. if its a diet in flex that jay or ronnie is allegedly recommending then its way too much for the average bbder

If so, why?

no not at all. you just need to add some more carbs in it. im surprised u have the energy to do anything. & where's the veg & fruit.
you're relying to much on the whey to get your nutrition
