You know why BBing bros are afraid of fruit? Neither do they  . These are the same guys who would pass up 2-3 fruit servings for a serving of empty-calorie dextrose or waxy maize. Go figure.
One day a looong time ago, a bro got leaner after cutting out his fruit intake. Little did he know he could have cut out any number of non-protein calorie sources (actually even protein if it was in excess of growth or maintenance reqs) and achieved the same result.
The most knowledgable/intelligent BBers I know make sure that fruit is one of the "last carbs standing" in a cut after everything is eliminated as necessary. Fruit is ideal for dieting from the perspective of nutrient density/energy scarcity. There are also some boring esoteric reasons that fruit is an ideal carb during dieting because of their effect on hepatocellular swelling and subsequent anabolic signaling in the face of a generally catabolic milieu, but this would confuse the bros. |
hepatocellular swelling results in anabolic signaling? That's interesting.
This bro would like to know! (Hey that rhymed, maybe I'll make it into a broem)
Where can I read up on this?
