Category: TNT diet
The Men’s Health TNT Diet – Jeff Volek, PhD, RD, and Adam Campbell – is a revolutionary program for burning fat and building muscle. Utilizing Targeted Nutrition Tactics (TNT), the authors move beyond “good carbs” and “bad carbs” to focus instead on “well-timed carbs” that will allow readers to eat the foods they want as long as they are eating them at the right time.
By controlling the levels of glycogen (carbs stored in our muscles) through this unique diet, and learning to exercise in the carb-burning zone (the secret to making workouts shorter and more effective) anyone can shed fat and build muscle—and it takes only 90 minutes of exercise a week.

The Red List
Red foods contain all the foods to avoid as they will be high carbohydrate foods (e.g. potatoes, rice). I strongly suggest you avoid all the items on this list, or, at best, eat them very occasionally and restrict the amount when you do. They will do nothing to help you in your attempt to reach…
The Amber List
Amber foods include ingredients containing between 6g and 25g of carbs per 100g (6% – 25%). If you are endeavouring to go into ketosis, this list will assist you to stay under a total of 50g carbs for the day. These are all net carbs and they are all 23 to 25g per indicated amount….
