You get an insulin response if you enough protein at a time- approx 30g I believe.
Stan efferding adds rice to his diet to lift and you can definitely do this to gain weight. Otherwise you can get enough carbs from fruit and honey.
If you want to lose weight they say to lower protein and add fat because it reduces the insulin response.
That’s true, protein does stimulate an insulin response. It’s more balanced whereas eating carbs stimulates an unbalanced one. That’s why it’s good to have both before and after you lift. If your blood sugar is normal of course.
Low protein and high fat does work to lose weight, including adipose weight which is what most people are after. There’s lots of ways to lose weight though. You could eat 1 bag of skittles every day and lose a shit ton. You would also probably look like shit. Depends on the goal. Some people want to be muscled out and some just want to be thin. There are lots of ways to go about it. And IMO it’s better to track what you’re doing and adjust as needed rather than just doing one thing and rejecting everything else.
