I honestly don't understand what's so hard to believe about the scientifically proven fact that what determines body composition (nutrition wise) are calories and a certain amount of protein. These concepts are common knowledge among nutritionists who know what they're talking about.

Sure they can, it's impossible not to get ripped when you reduce calories, eat enough protein, and workout.
It may be inconvenient for some people, but so is eating 6 "clean" meals a day for others.

A nutritionist wouldn't discount the micronutrients or beneficial fats in so called clean food, or endorse the trans, sat fats, or nutritionally void profile of things like fast food.  That's my principal objection to Adam's junk food diet.  Some foods are healthier than other foods and he's supporting the wrong ones.  Unless he has amended his Adonis Diet yet again.

Second objection is just personal preference.  I'd rather eat a high volume of cal sparse foods than a low volume of cal dense food.  It's almost impossible to overeat when you're eating tons of veggies, but who's really going to throw out half a Big Mac, time after time, when their stomach is far from full and they're in cal debt?  Someone with greater willpower than mine.

Of course cal debt is required for fat loss.  He just makes awful food choices.

Additional restrictions may be applied for optimal health of course, although bro-science is just as prevalent there.

Exactly, it's a matter of convenience. Different for everyone. I e.g. can stick to a diet of one or two big meals of whatever I like much better than the 6 meals a day "clean" diet.

Noone is advertising extremes anyway. Just because you can get ripped on Big Macs alone doesn't mean you will only eat Big Macs, for several reasons.

Ya I like the frequent small feedings.  Keeps me from craving and stops my inner ogre from appearing.  Beans and veggies are a big standby for me.

It's going into winter here now tho and I'm eating more or less recklessly.  Home cooked stuff mostly except for an occasional dinner out.  But this is it.  This is the winter I stop being embarrassed about my fucking lifts!

Great.  While you are at it you can post up that deadlift video that you took but never had time to post.
