Furthermore people on Lyles board giving their personal experience are typically young males who have never been super lean OR who happen to be at the state in their lives where it is almost impossible to not get super lean and gain strength following ANY sort of diet.  Do you guys know if these studies exist anywhere on really sick lean versus not people? Somehow I think things change the game slightly but perhaps significantly. I am interested in digging a bit more on this just for grins. |
On the contrary, bro of mine named Borge Fagerli (head coach at myorevolution.com, you can look him up), uses not only fruit, but fruit juice as the predominant carb source for his BBing clients on a cut. Borge is among the top 3 most rational/intelligent/educated BBers I know of on this planet. And he he's huge & shredded to the gills, if that matters to you.
And by the way, you're not gonna find any scientific studies on the effects of different carb sources in super-lean subjects, mainly because no scientific or commercial entity has any interest in this topic. But then the question becomes -- why would it make a difference? Ingested carbs get broken down by the body and oxidized or stored according to the current physiological demand. The body doesn't know nor care what food the carbs were derived from. The speed of breakdown differs from carb to carb, but this difference is of negligible consequence on body composition.
