Greg Doucette turning Everything I know about diet on its head. Please help.

If you don't over eat, and utilitize a small Caloric surplus you can steadily make lean gains and keep fat gain to a minimal. You should be able to grow and not raise your Bodyfat percentage, it's more technical and more challenging but I feel that's also best way to do it. It's so much more efficient. What you said in a nutshell works though no doubt. I personally hate long diets... So I'd rather slowly gain that muscle tissue and keep fat gain Minimal to non-existent.

Id like to see u lay out a diet regimen... Sounds pretty freakin cool the way u explain it, slow gain and keeping fat minimal, do u add any chemicals to aide in this?

Do u do diets for peeps on the side?

The advice he gives is for the general population

Fouad did a podcast on it
The advice is NOT applicable to bodybuilders.

For your average Dad Bod...
Hes right, they shouldnt be forcing calories, they dont know what they're doing and they will just get fat.

We are all on STEROIDS
Pushing the cals when you're injecting compounds that have amazing nutrient partitioning is a different story.

I'm force feeding right now on Tren and I'm getting leaner while throwing lbs on the scale.

If a Joe Blow, did what we do, they would look like shit.

Slow and steady recomp for a guy that wants to be able to FINALLY hit 5 pullups, makes sense.

Not for us that superset 15 weighted pullups after a shrug set.

Greg is a very good contest prep coach. Many people have dropped him shortly after getting their pro card because he’s not very experienced in getting “huge”. He’s got good advice for contest prep and looking good year round

What the good doctor has said is that eating like a pig [what most call bulking] isn't necessary to build muscle, and its not necessary to get fat to put on quality muscle BUT that it is easier to build muscle in a surplus. This is because eating indiscriminately makes it easier to maintain constant muscle growth [even if you do gain fat] whereas eating cleaner is a slower, more tedious [easier to mess up] process as far as anabolism goes.

greg supports "maingaining" as the best policy which isnt a super restructive or all-out bulking diet, but somewhere in between.

And yes it is possible to build muscle in a deficit if your intake of protein and other nutrients is sufficient to maintain protein synthesis [aka muscle growth]

For example, you can lose 1 pound of fat in a week and simultaneously build .5 of muscle, if you are on the right diet. so you end up losing weight but gaining muscle.

And lastly... eating in a surplus = gain fat, what about this simple concept "turned everything you know on its head"?

you'll gain muscle as well, but every calorie you eat past the amount of calories your body requires to maintain equillibrium... is excess/non-neccesary weight AKA fat storage

I think you should just ignore Greg cause everyone north of the border knows hes a dirty fucking rat. There's a reason he's hated on the canadian boards especially in the east coast and there is also a reason he received a fine only after getting busted. Dude rolled hard on one of the most quality loved labs back then.

Besides the police report/article showing him get arrested no I do not have a detailed story for you on the back end but I'm pretty sure the lab that was fucked over by him was Kayne? maybe @Silentlemon1011 can remember but he definitely rolled on people and one of the canadian boards I'm on the OG's said he's 100% a fucking rat.

Don't quote me on the lab.
