Title: Is white rice ok for leaning out?
Post by: Nicademus on December 09, 2011, 08:30:05 PM: I keep hearing brown rice is best for leaning out or cutting weight. Why not white rice and what's the difference other than fiber?

add what you can find cheaper and tastes better for you.

They are the same and the "gi" doesnt make much difference at all.

Brown rice is better for you IMO.

Nothing. Just apply the same logic. Add something to buffer the absorption (except post workout) and you're good to go.

Just eat foods that you like (i love steaks, eggs, low fat cheese, prawns, baked potatoes etc). Getting lean is all about consistency not about particular foods. Get into a calorie deficit, train hard and smart and don't worry about stupid things like brown rice.
