The Dave Palumbo Diet - Summer Cut anyone?

As you all know, summer is coming soon, and every single teenager wants that beach body to attract those other teenage girls.

As a teenager, you can cut on many diets. The question is, which diet is right for you? They all work, but you need to find which one is the best for you. I personally find the Dave Palumbo Diet to work very well. In fact, I tried it for 1 month, and gained 2lbs of muscle while losing 4lbs of fat.

How does this diet work? The diet is a low carb diet, meaning... If you hate low carbs, this diet is NOT for you. On this diet, you can not go over 40g of carbs a day. Why? Because on this diet, you're using your fats as energy, you're brain will go into ketosis mode because you are not eating any carbs. It will take 2-4 days to get into ketosis mode. You're protein should be at about 1.2g per bodyweight, 0.5g of fat per bodyweight. You cannot eat direct sources of carbs, you're only carbs should come from vegetables and sources of fat.

Example of a diet for a 200lb man:


MEAL #1
5 whole eggs (make sure to buy OMEGA-3 EGGS from the supermarket. They contain virtually NO saturated fat and tons of good OMEGA-3 fats); add another 4 egg whites to this (they don?t need to be the Omega-3 ones; you can use liquid egg whites)

MEAL #2
SHAKE: 50g Whey Protein with 1 tablespoon of All Natural Peanut butter (no sugar)

MEAL #3
"Lean Protein Meal": 8oz chicken with 1/2-cup cashew nuts (almonds, or walnuts)

MEAL #4
SHAKE: 50g Whey Protein with 1 tablespoons of All Natural Peanut butter (no sugar added)

MEAL #5
"Fatty Protein Meal": 8oz Salmon, Swordfish, or RED MEAT with a green salad (no tomatoes, carrots, or red peppers) with 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil or Macadamia nut oil and vinegar

MEAL #6
SHAKE: 50g Whey with 1 tablespoon all natural peanut butter or 4 whole (Omega-3) eggs and 4 extra whites


How and when should I do my cardio on this diet?

You should be doing cardio 3-4 times a week. You're heart rate should be less than 120bmp so you can ensure the use of fats while doing cardio, when going over, you're body might use carbs as a source of energy. Cardio sessions should never be less than 20 minutes!
