    I was 187 and fitness training. Deadlift 285 for a couple of reps.
    Stumbled upon Starting Strength.
    Learned the lifts.
    Bought the shoes.
    Now at 59 I weigh 254 and deadlift 385, squat 355 3x3, press 141.5 3x5.
    Need proteins. Milk? Be careful. It will add on the weight quickly.

    The trick to eating well is to change your mindset towards eating. If you eat for pleasure, you will always be overweight. You have to convince yourself that you eat for a purpose (nutrition). I would compare it to something like quiting smoking.

    Anyone starting this program, and you are over 40, first check if you have NAFLD. If yes, first put your house in order, get rid of it, by following a low carb diet, integrate a fasting regimen, lose that insulin resistance, let your pancreas and liver breath a little. Lose the weight, the elevated blood pressure, and glucose overflow. Than when your NAFLD is reversed, you may start strength training. But know, if you are having the metabolic syndrome, lifting and overeating will not help you get better.

    • @JoshAltman5270
      @JoshAltman5270 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Protein is moreso to fuel your muscle protein synthesis that will be stimulated from your lifting. Carbs/eating an hour or so before your workout generally improves performance during workouts compared to fasting but isnt that important in persons gaining weight due to the consistant caloric surplus (as opposed to being in an extended caloric deficit leading to glycogen depletion). Eating enough fat is also important however if you are eating meat and dairy you are probably eating enough fat. Food quality isnt THAT important but whole foods are generally more filling and processed foods are generally less filling so this can help you reach certain calorie goals if you typically over/undereat.

    Sir/Madam, I have found I am carb sensitive. I naturally keep my carbs low, and seem to get a lot of energy from protein. However, due to health issues I have packed on weight and am just starting the program. I would like to drop from 232 to 175 while training. What macro profile do you think would work for my carb sensitive self??

    • @oliverallen5324
      @oliverallen5324 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      How tall are you? You're not going to lose 60 lbs and make strength gains for more than a couple of weeks. Focus on hitting your protein(yes literally over 230g). Eat less junk. Check out Stan Efferding. Eat whole food. You're not carb sensitive, you're undermuscled. Your body will change when the weight gets heavy.

    • @Fortress333
      @Fortress333 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think you don't want to use your protein as a fuel source. It's inefficient and will cost you a lot of money: protein is of the three macros the most expensive, generally speaking. Besides, protein will still boost your insulin production, although not as high as carbs do, and I'm not sure if you want that to happen too much. I don't know what you mean by 'carb sensitive'. It could be your insulin production is sky high after eating carbs or you get bloating or other gut issues, which are typical if you eat carbs and you're more carb sensitive than some. To curb the insulin production, you can up the fat with your meals (in nature protein comes with fat) and keep protein moderate, with carbs very low. You could have your bloodwork checked. Most people are (pre)-diabetic. The good news is you can most likely reverse this if you just don't eat like how most people eat, by which I mean most people are addicted to sugar. Some are more carb tolerant; it doesn't mean they're actually healthier. You can be fairly slim and active and still die of heart disease all of a sudden. There are also obese people who aren't diabetic BTW.
      Eating a lot of carbs like Starting Strength recommends will yield a noticeable weight gain and facilitate strength gains, but it's a lot of adipose tissue from all the carbs that the body worked hard to store as fat. Now, they say about 3/4ths of it is lean tissue if you know what you're doing and you're new to lifting. The carbs sure will have you eat a lot, because it's easier to eat carbs and you'll be hungry soon after. It's not exactly healthy, IMO. It's easy gaining weight with carbs and also easy to then think you're jacked.
      If you go low carb, high fat, you will make quality strength gains too, without the burden placed on your pancreas and the rest of your gut system. You will also be a lot leaner and stay lean, unless you go totally overboard with the fats, which is hard to do with fats, but easy with carbs. You can do some research into grain consumption and what that will do to the human body. A good source of information is William Davis, author of Wheat Belly.
      You could go 60% fat, 30% protein, and 10% carbs. Meanwhile, keep training and learning.

    • @michaelduncan2759
      @michaelduncan2759 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you for your reply sir. I am not at all diabetic, just feel terrible after carbs, and never can eat when first rising in the morning. Must wait at least 2-4 hours, or nausea sets in. So, I will look into the macros you suggest, or a more ketogenic diet profile. I did Keto as an Olympic lifter and had lots of energy.

    You do not need 1g of protein per Ib of body weight . You end up just shitting it all out and your arse is on fire. Protein is important yes but Carbs are more important you need more carbs in for
    strength and gaining size.Im roughly 95kg so around 210 ibs. When training hard i roughly get in 150g of protein sometimes less, (130g) Aslong as im getting roughly 40-50g more than my bodyweight (95kilo).

      unknown entity As someone who is trying to lose some weight (20-30 lbs) and get stronger 300-500 carbs is not going to get burned on the beginner LP. Yes they may know better but common wisdom tells me that all of that is going to end up more as fat that I have to cut again later. I add in maybe 50-100 g extra carbs and hope that the fat I have is reduced perhaps at the initial expense of some performance.

      @@unclefreddy2009 Ok, so this is where i have to throw some numbers at you then. Average non lifting male burns 2500 calories a day, of an average height of 5'10. 500 grams of carbs is 2000 calories. Lets say this guy weighs 160lbs, thats 160g of protien = 640 calories. So far we are at 2640. Finally it's fat, lets make this moderate , i won't even make it low, 80g = 720 calories for a grand total of: 3360 calories. That's not even that many calories and i went the absolute higest on the carb scale. Someone in thier first year of lifting is going to burn over 3k easy, especially if they have an active job. You think only 20 year old can only lose weight on high carbs, because you don't know how to track or understand nutrition at all. This is on you to learn and adapt, not to tell everyone it's impossible.

    They don't really seem to know what they're talking about, this is mostly mainstream nutritional advice. Very unlike Starting Strength's style.
    At 7:12 he recommends overweight people should just lower their fat intake. And then what, raise the carbs? That's just the tired old high-carb diet the USDA has been pushing for decades now, which caused the obesity epidemic in the first place.

      The body needs energy, if one only eats protein, some of it will be converted to glucose via gluconeogenesis, which has the same effect as consuming carbs directly, just less efficiently with more overhead for the liver.

      @@Alex-lu3pn I first want to say, I agree wholeheartedly with you.
      I think the concept of eating Protein in large quantities in the United States is definitely not assumed. Even in the video, the first large point made is the consumption of Protein for strength. 0:07 , 5:39
      The point he makes, also in agreement with you, is for a person who is underweight starting to work out and needing energy as he trains. This underweight individual should be eating 300g- 500g of carbohydrates. Although slightly Convoluted, they state that the underweight individual should see Strength improvements at this carb level is increased consumption level. 3:30 At some point though, the underweight individual person will need to gain weight to push beyond the initial Strength gaining period that was started by increasing Carbohydrates and protein. 4:24
      For the overweight individual, it is the absence of protein that also affects them negatively, in the absence of protein the individual is eating high fat, high carbohydrate diet. 6:40.
      The main difference between overweight and underweight is the number of calories eaten.
      The Recommendation at 7:12 is to eat more protein to lower fat. " ..Go from fatty protein to lean protein..." then direct the overweight person to follow the prescription of two fistfuls of protein three times a day. At the end of the segment, he brings up adding both fat and carbs as the "other sources"
      It's not until 8:22 that we arrive at the key to this conversation, ( I am not necessarily a fan of the question asked, but where she goes. With her answer is important.) The goals for the overweight and underweight individual are the same. The difference is caloric intake. If you are keeping an eye on all the macros being discussed here there is no real reason why a person could not eat 85/15 ground beef. The challenge becomes consuming the macros after this meal. If the individual plans ahead there is no issue, but if they don't then the chances of being in a caloric deficit diminishes.
      I will say I think that it's weird how in the end they are quite diminutive to fat 13:10 , while sticking to this idea of not tracking what one eats 0:39. Perhaps this is where their premise of eating lies. Since we cannot see fat, the goal is to remove it from hidden sources and then add it back in fat dense ( other macro light) foods.
      It is with this information I will conclude that the overall calories should be reduced from the training individual's diet if the goal is to lose weight.

    • @Alex-lu3pn
      @Alex-lu3pn 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @@SilverWiskeyStones I agree with the calorie reduction.
      My disagreement is with them pointing out to fat, and not carbs.
      That suggests the overweight individual should have a high carb, high protein, low fat diet, although increasing protein is better. Removing the fat and maintaning carbs will lead the overweight individual to even worse levels of insulin resistance.
      They don't suggest decreasing carbs at any point, just fat.
      One lay person might easily assume excess carbs are healthy as long as they don't eat fat. Which is in fact how a lot of dieting obsessed obese individuals never lose weight.
