One of the largest misunderstandings circulating within the low carb community is the mistaken idea that everyone on a low carb diet has insulin resistance. While most of us have some type of metabolic problem or defect, it isn’t always from insulinemia. Sometimes, the problem is not too much insulin; sometimes, it’s actually not enough. For those with insulin resistance, the problem can be easy to solve: Just restrict carbs to your personal level of tolerance and save carby treats for special occasions. That results in increased sensitivity to insulin and better blood glucose control. If you have insulin insufficiency, however, the problem is more complex. Role of Insulin A fear of carbs and insulin is common among low carb dieters, but insulin is vital to survival. If you don’t produce enough insulin, you’ll die. Insulin is a peptide hormone secreted by the beta cells inside the pancreas. It’s released about every 5 to 10 seconds at a very small level, and then in larger quantities a...

[music] so you got 4 workoutscovering the whole body over a 6-day period. having said that,you gotta be flexible. if you need an extra day forrecovery, then take an extra day so that'll become 4 days over 7. some people may need even more,you gotta listen to your body. if you need more days to recoverthen, you know, just extend that cycle into 7 days or 8days or whatever you need. extra negatives are atool that you can use to increase the intensity. basically, you gotthree phases of strength. the weakest phaseis the positive or the lifting of the weight. that's the weakest phase. the second phase ofstrength is the static. you're stronger on the static. and then the thirdphase is the negative. unfortunately, a lot of peoplethink in terms of just lifting weight so for instance,a bench press, they lifted theweight to the top. all right, job done andjust drop it back down and do another one. they're missing half of the repand possibly the most important half of the rep beca...

(This is part 7 of a multi-part series on How to Tweak a Low Carb Diet . It explains the path I have traveled in my weight loss journey so far. If you didn’t read part 1, you can do so by clicking on the how-to link. Part 1 also includes links to the rest of the series.) My diet break obviously refilled my glycogen stores, since I was eating more carbohydrates, but that wasn’t a surprise. I was okay with the eight-pound weight regain because everything happened exactly as Lyle McDonald said it would. Although each of us have the potential to hold different amounts of glycogen in our liver and muscles, there was no reason to believe those eight pounds were fat. I was used to inputting everything I ate into Fitday, and that didn’t stop during my break, so it was easy to keep tabs on my daily calorie count. That helped to keep me zeroed into maintenance. Overall, my complete diet break went well, except that I took my husband’s suggestion and enjoyed a full month off from dieting that Dec...
