I wonder how much body fat he is holding.  I'd like to hear Jim Quinn's take on it, I might give Billy Smith a call tomorrow...

I think he carbs em up on like small poritons of white potatoes and white rice on friday and saturday.....I think but who knows.

Evan definetely needs something to fill him out though, and the fats arent going to cut it.

But since the super heavyweight class is so weak, he might be ok

No, Dave uses the carb loading protocol.

A few things to consider. With most of Dave's clients, not all, but during the last few wks the diet can get pretty weird and tough. Through most of the diet it's high protein, moderate fat and very low carb...you still get about 50g of carbs per day, just enough to fuel your training, plus you get the one cheat meal per wk...and I'm talking "cheat meal."

However, if the client is still holding on to a little bit of fat the last wk or so he'll pull all the fat out of the diet for the most part for a few days each wk...on those days it's protein and a few cups of green veggies..that's it...he may even pull the fat out of the diet for every day as the show gets closer. If everything goes as planned, this only happens 3 days prior to Thursday.

Typically though, once you reach the Thursday before the show, the fats are added back in and a carb up begins.

Typical Dave Carb up:

3 days out: 30g carbs per meal x 6 meals
2 days out: 40g carbs per meal x 6 meals
1 day out: 50g carbs per meal x 6 meals
Contest day: 30g carbs per meal

In your honest opinion, do you think Dave's Diet is beneficial to Bodybuilders ? Do you think it works, basically ?

Good Post AJ but 30g x 6 ain't nowhere near carb loading....

been there.. try 500g last 3 days...

Good post.  I've known people to get ripped on his diet and I guess I've heard of others who it didn't do shit for.

I think its hit or miss, some people do great on it. And for some people it will leave alot to desired.

But it all matters how u handle carbs, how faithful you are to the diet, etc.

I wonder what Alex A is doing and would go with that ;D


Palumbo = brutal re-inventing the wheel and trying to fix something that ain't broken...

Some days yes, some days no, I'm on low carbs right now (very low) but I'm training much harder than that and I'm 2 1/2 weeks out, not hard, but harder than that, that was supposedly shot on Sept.11, 3 months before the Nationals, there's no excuse for that kind of training eing that far out.

I think it'd take a certain type of person to sync well with Dave.
