Question of Strength
How can I really take CP seriously when he says eating natural foods gained him 12 lbs of LBM in 5 days?
Next, WTF is this about asian carb adaption? I'm not ultra expert, but I'd love to see a reference about how divergent evolution has struck the diets of azn people in such a short time span.

Re: Question of Strength
From the linked article:
I was at 8% and weighed 198 pounds.[...] five days later, after eating only Dominican Republic foods, I weighed 209 at 6% body fat. That's >14 lbs of lbm in five days. (Had he take a dump? Clearly, the man was full of something.) I didn't read the whole thing. It kind of has the ramble-y air of a blow hard on a roll, fading in and out of coherence.

Re: Question of Strength
I'm still thinking about this claim. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that that 5 day gain as a percentage of body mass would be remarkable for a newborn/sub 6 month old baby.
edit: http://babyparenting.about.com/libra...ts/growth1.pdf edit again: I keep effing up this link.... I guess you have to cut and paste.

Pretty much all of the super-specific nutrition advice on T-Nation is just made up or based on very very thin evidence and extrapolated way out of domain. [/ QUOTE ] agreed, along with their crappy supplements..
