Hey Mr N, I know dat you is a Mike Mentzer fan, so I gots a question for you. Did you ever read his Heavy Duty Journal? FYI, he talks about his contest prep for the 79 Mr. O, and there were days when he ate super lo cals, like 600 cal days, and me thinks dat he had plenty of muscle on him

My point is that one can do what I'm doing for a very short period of time (3 weeks max) and that the muscle that is lost won't be that much muscle, and that it will come back VERY QUICKLY, once a normal diet is started back up. So, basically my hypothesis is that a 3 week diet blitz will cause lots of fat to be lost without losing that much muscle, and that this muscle will quickly come back, WITHOUT THE FAT COMING BACK, after a normal diet is resumed.
