Title: Some questions regarding Adonis Principles
Post by: EL Mariachi on August 29, 2007, 07:21:11 PM
So im using the adonis principles, and my waist went down from 41 inch to 32 inch. I also lost 1 inch of my calves, thats starting to consern me. I lost this in a steady peace just dieting 3/4 days a week. But now i want to speed it up a little, and my consern is when im at 1400/1500 cals a day i seem to lose much faster off the calves, they shrink for 1/6 inch a day! >:(


I dont know if adonis is still here, but maybe his followers can anwser, is eating 3 times a day really that good when dieting and tryin to hold on muscle?  And why does adonis say that you can have one meal of 1000 cals, i used to thaught that you cant use all the ingredients that consist 1000 cals, that the rest will be stored as fat.

Over how long of a period of time has this been? Do you typically hold fat around your calves or do you feel that what you are losing is primarily muscle? Are your calves a weakpoint/strongpoint/neutral and how has your strength changed in calf exercises? I would guess that you are also losing water and depleting glycogen that is stored in your calves, causing them to be "flat". Adonis advises that you spread out your meals however you like throughout the day. Even if you eat 1,000 cals in one meal, this is not going to be stored as fat as long as your body is consistently in a caloric deficit.

Yeah, but sometimes you will see fat guys who don't have much fat at all around their calves, they are actually kind of cut looking.
