Weight Cutting blend

When I cut weight in general I'm not consuming any calories whatsoever aside from whats in the protein shake. Ive been using just pure CFM Whey for years (no fat, no carbs). But I was just wondering is that best suited for my needs? Losing fat/water and maintaining as much muscle mass as possible.

correct me if im wrong, but even during cutting you still need some fat and carbs in your diet. Im not taking 100's of grams, but at least something. especially some carbs. Cutting those two completely out of your diet and trying to maintain as much mass would put to much stress on the body.

in the end, your body will need the additional nutrients from some where and the first place it goes (since nothing is available) is the muscle. Hence, in the long run, you could never make any real progress.

why not add some more carbs like an oatmuslce for example so you have something to burn instead of the muscle?

just my two cents

Probably not very healthy I know but most people dont even consume water while doing the final cut before weigh ins. Keep in mind this is wieight cutting for fighting not bodybuilding. I do drink some fruit juices to keep my blood sugar up.

I would cut carbs before fats. Fat helps with hormone regulation and people in the 80s who went on very low fat diets OFTEN had major problems with depression. Switch to 70% protein 20% fat and 10% carbs. You will feel ALOT better.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot.
