Title: The Adonis Principle is full of shit
Post by: EL Mariachi on December 15, 2007, 10:06:09 AM
What happens on the adonis diet:

- you slow down you  metabolism
- you lose muscle tissue
- you gain more fat longterm
- you look like shit on  this diet
- you lack the most important and only'' building block'' protein
- not healthy


It could work for some genetically blessed folks, but for 90 % people i wouldnt advise it.

The adonis PRinciple also says'' if you lift, you cant lose muscle, no matter what and how much you eat'' hahahah how the hell did i believe this crap.

The calories on his diet aren't that low that it lowers metabolism and it's not a 0 protein diet either.

His diet is full of bad fats, a deficit in the most important thing called 'protein''. His diet is great for your energy-level, not for losing fat and gaining muscle. Tom and jerries ice will not build any muscle. Neither will cookies or redf weine as calories. Adonis makes the big mistake thinking calories will build muscle. Sugar will build zero muscle, all that simple carbohydrates and bad fats will only set you back.

adam got into pretty good shape, if he did follow what he preaches then it must work for him.

read everything you can get your hands on and in the end if what he preaches makes sense to you then use it.

Look if you get the USDA allowances of nutrients you will be fine eating low calories.  You will maintain (or even gain if you really know how to train) your muscle and lose fat.

This is known as CRON.

It is also the only proven method of life extension.

Mariachi you were never heavily muscled.  losing the fat just forced you to confront this fact.

Yes, as you are clearly demonstrating with your physique, there are multitudes of various training/dietary options the successful bodybuilder can implement into his free-thinking, progressive, and enlightened routine. 
Title: Re: The Adonis Principle is full of shit
Post by: EL Mariachi on December 15, 2007, 10:48:20 AM
All i can tell you that i looked much better on high protein foods, rather than simple carbohydrates. I dont like eating protein and drinking shakes, so you try something else like the adonis principles.

You dont have to eat meat all the time as your protein source.
whey protein
eggs
fish
chicken

all healthy food. Your body really doesnt need sugar at all, but it is advised to take sugars during and after your workout. Try not eating protein at all, and see what happens. ''High-protein is bad for your health'' is a myth.

why would I have to demonstrate it with my physique.  I think Zane showed pretty clearly that low calories produce an awesome physique.  Serge Nubret proved that one meal a day works fine.  You know this Jeff, so stop responding to me for everyone else's benefit when you and I both know you're full of shit.  What's the point of winning an argument if you know that you had to cheat to do it, that can't be very satisfying if you have self-respect.

you're missing my point.  You went from a diet propounded by supplement hucksters to one advocated by some dude looking for attention on a message board. and now you're going to see-saw right back.  Try using a little bit of sense.  CRON has been proven to extend life and increase muscle mass in animal test subjects.  The scientific consensus is that it is the only diet that does this.  Research it for yourself before you decide to start planning your nutrition around the advice of another snake oil salesman.

I tried both diets.

Bodybuilding diet/ high protein= got great results

then did adonis principles= got weak, stopped growing, lost muscle, only lost a little fat.


Its plain logic, not only milos has no use of promoting a high-protein diet, why would he?
But i got myself as proof that Pro-bb diet is the way to go.

You guys are stupid beyond belief. You should use common sence.

Look at the facts


Protein is the only source that will build muscle

If you eat 6000 calories a day only carbs and fat you will not gain a ounce of muscle. zero.

This got nothing to do with promoting protein, all facts.

Like milos said:


When building a house:

protein--> material
carbs/fat''energy'' --> working men

So if you dont have any material, what use is it to have 100 working men, they will not build anything.
If you got enough material(protein) just 2 guys will build a mansion in a period of time.

The problem with your post here is that you never quantify the amount of protein needed, no precision. All you say is that protein = needed.

Unless you quantify exactly how much protein you think is needed, your entire post = worthless.

Wrong. There has never been a recommendation like that.

When calories = the diet - variable that has the biggest impact on your training, why do you not count them? Protein = meaningless if you do not have a long term plan for your calories.

Do you believe that the daily grams of protein you eat has a bigger impact on your body composition and training progress than the long term control over calories?  ::)

No matter how good your training is, if you dont feed the body right , its useless. So yes protein is more important.

this was taken last year I was probably eating 1800 cals per day.  I don't think I lost any muscle

If you had any to begin with, then surely you lost it all.  I see no appreciable muscle in that photo.


It was admitted in a thread that the "principles" were all a joke.  How it was missed by so many is beyond me.  Perhaps it was because it was posted on a low traffic forum.  
Regardless, all one has to do is look through Adonis' posts to see the type of diet he actually follows.  

The joke isn't that bodybuilders are dumb and think they need to eat shitty tasting food to get lean.  The joke has always been that people are so urged to follow something that they'll latch on to even the most absurd idea.  
Case in point: the "principles."

No matter how good your training is, if you dont feed the body right , its useless.

Are you a retard or something?

Feeding the body "right" starts with the amount of calories you eat, not with the grams of protein. That = the main issue here. You can not burn fat effectively without calorie control, and you can not gain muscle effectively without calorie control, and you can not burn fat and gain muscle at the same time for an extended amount of time anyway.

Neither fat burning nor muscle building = possible without a deficit or surplus of calories, regardless of your protein intake.

Eating lots of protein on a calorie deficit won't enable you to gain muscle, eating lots of protein on a calorie surplus won't allow you to drop down in BF over time.

In other words, calorie control is the key that allows for training progress, wheter it is done deliberately (the smart way), or by ones normal non conscious behavioural patterns (big eaters tends to get big, because they eat many calories).

Protein counting = basically worthless without calorie control.

"Good eating" in the BB land = therefore dependant on the daily energy intake, with protein being a minor factor. Counting protein without calories = therefore a big mistake.

Protein is a must. It has a huge role in loosing fat and building muscle. ( and im not talkin about that at the same time debussey)

Like i said calories dont build muscle , protein does. But ofcourse you will need to eat more calories then you use, im not arguing that at all.

If calories build muscle, we could just eat popcorn and drink beer or things like that, and build muscle tissue. Saddly it doesnt work like that.

Arguing with your limited ability to understand = worthless.

What happens on the adonis diet:

- you slow down you  metabolism
- you lose muscle tissue
- you gain more fat longterm
- you look like shit on  this diet
- you lack the most important and only'' building block'' protein
- not healthy


It could work for some genetically blessed folks, but for 90 % people i wouldnt advise it.

The adonis PRinciple also says'' if you lift, you cant lose muscle, no matter what and how much you eat'' hahahah how the hell did i believe this crap.

Adonis is also chemically enchanced. So a lot of catabolism can be prevented with small a.s. dosages.
