Is dieting required with clenbuterol?
Clenbuterol increases the BMR of the body. BMR or basal metabolic rate can be thought of as the amount of energy expenditure required to sustain the minimal requirements of the body. When clenbuterol is ingested and BMR increases, the glucose of the body is used quickly to sustain the basic mechanisms of the body.
Once the glucose is exhausted, keeping only the essential amounts required for functioning of the brain, body starts using deposited fats. Fats are bulky in nature and, when burnt, reduce weight of the body. It is these fats that prevent visibility of muscles to the naked eye preventing appreciation of complete shape of the body builders’ physique. This happens because fats take up the position between skin and muscle folds.
Dieting is required to a certain extent if you want to lose fat and reduce weight. Food continuously provides us with glucose and as long as glucose is available to the body, it will not move on to utilize fat.
Eat a protein rich diet to help your muscles grow and cut down on fats and carbs to prevent giving an alternate source of fuel to the body.
Other requirements while using clenbuterol
An increase in BMR means spending energy of the body and evaporating it in the form of heat energy. To neutralize this excess heat produces, one needs to drink lots of fluids, mainly water. Water also helps in excretion of waste products formed as a result of bulky muscles and prevents damage to kidneys.
