burn much lower-body fat until nearly
all upper-body fat is eliminated. That
has to do with certain receptors in

under stress, such as from an intense workout, and it literally
forces your body to eat its muscle tissue for emergency energy
and build up fat deposits. In other words, if you’re training hard,
you’re not only stimulating a growth response but activating a
muscle-wasting emergency response that can make bodyfat
more difficult to burn.
Research has shown that a high-carb diet can help control
cortisol, but that’s not the optimal eating plan for you if you’re
looking to get in X-treme Lean condition. To get the same, or
