Hey there. I've been doing super high carb, very low fat, very low protein. I'm so bloated I feel like im becoming pregnant. Like 4k calories of sugar and starch. What gives??

Do my protocols! www.durianrider.com

Ever see me or any of my gfs over the years bloated?

Durian, what estimated percentage of your daily calories do you think come from protein and fat? Less than 10% each? Less than 5% each? How do you feel about oats? And instead of processed sugar could you use natural sugars to up calories like maple syrup, honey, coconut sugar and date syrup? Last thing, how do you feel about dried fruit like dates and figs, are those ok on a regular basis? Thank you!

sugar is ALWAYS natural! Sucrose comes from plants remember! Not sure about % exactly but if I had to guess maybe under 20g of fat a day when trying to lean out and under 80g of protein a day. I NEVER try to 'eat enough fat or protein' when Im trying to get lighter. I ALWAYS eat unlimited fruit, starches AND sugars. Unlimited water.

Almost forgot, what time do you typically eat your last meal and what time do you go to sleep?

I recommend 8-9pm and eat 6-7pm dinner.

Harley brother I bought your CTFU booklet and am enjoying very much. I've completely switched over to high carb. You mention eating 5grams per pound / 10grams per kilo carbs. Do I use my current weight to tally this? Right now I'm 5 foot 7 inches and weigh 220 pounds male. Using 5 grams per pound puts me at 1100 grams carbs, 4400 calories. I walk/jog for 1.5 hours every day burning roughly 800-1000 cals. Do I need to eat 4400 cals of carbs? I'm struggling to eat 3000+ cals a day as is. Thanks!

eat as much sugars as you care for mate. You might crave more or less on any given day.

10g per kg is a guide but listen to your body and eat more or less sugars based on ur cravings.

keep fat intake low AF if low body fat is the goal.

Older video

Mr. Durianrider, what happened to the funny video in 2017 about Chang Mai and Joe Best where you lampoon some of the other riders? One of them was some young guy that was out of control. There was an overdubbed humorous voice that satirically described Joe Best as having so much success eating KFC, McD's and whatnot.

Hey Durianrider I was wondering whether or not you deleted these videos, they were pretty funny

Where you talk about psychiatry and medicine and about the victim mentality

It's an old video where you call psychatrists etc. pill pushers and drug pushers and how they never really helped and another video where you talk about how people would rather pop pills than take action.

I found the clip again on eisel's video talking crap about you calling you a schizophrenic, really I went to watch your part of the video, pretty ironic now he rants against anti-depressants when it's popular. today when seven years ago... anyway it's not about him

I wanted to know if you've deleted those videos I feel like those would be my 2 most favourite durianrider videos

Cheers mate :) They would still be up there but Ive put up over 7000 so can't remember exactly where or which channel. Ive got a YT channel called Ask Durianrider where I do a lot of self help stuff.

I paid for the $250 coaching. I haven’t gotten a response to my emails? Where is the best place to ask you questions?

No such thing as junk miles. Henry Rono ran 15km twice a day for months at 6:30/km, he run so slow none of us wanted to run with him. This allowed him to run 5x1KM intervals everyday. "During an astonishing period between April and June that year, Rono posted the fastest ever times in the 10,000m (27 minutes 22.5 seconds), the 5,000m (13min 8.4sec), the 3,000m steeplechase (8min 5.4sec) and the 3,000m (7min 32.1sec) – a feat that has never remotely been matched, either before or since."

Great runner but wasted his talent on the booze.

Hey Harley I am interested in getting a book book of yours but am not sure which one has your latest dietary and nutrition advice. I see no year or date on your Carb The Fcuk Up book. Just want the most up to date instructions on how to lose weight and succeed in my health. Thanks!

If weight loss is the goal than either of my 2 ebooks is going to help you for sure mate. :)

Alcohol can NEVER make you fat

Truth! BUT....It WILL lower your life quality and open you up to a lot of dangers etc. A few drinks a few times a year? I dont see a problem with that. Personally I dont drink any booze for decades now.

everyone in my family saw me lose 30 kilos go from boogie to meth addict and always ask me for advice but when I tell them what to do they're like noo I can't do that, give up junk food? give up meat lovers pizza? it's so frustrating I can help them so easily!

Welcome to the lean life! xD

why did goggins leave his daughter?

Simple! Because David Goggins IS a quitter. He just talks it but doesnt walk it.

any zero drop shoes you rate in 2024?

Altra. These are not zero drop but are DOPE running shoes for trail and road - Nike Zegama trail.

Can you explain the differences in your ebook? I’d like to try one!

Get them both. Live them every hour for your best life! NOTHING COMPARES!!

Can alcohol ever make someone fat?

NEVER! Booze WILL fuck your life, fuck your liver, increase your cancer risk, fuck your brain, fuck your balls etc but it CANT make you fat.

Hey Harley! Do you ever wonder why Vegan Gains had such a downfall compared to how he used to be? When he was following your protocals and was a fan of you, he was doing great, was lean, had great fitness, etc. I recently saw a few clips of him and his wife, and holy hell he looks obese and she looks beyond obese. He had 350k subs now he's almost down to 310k his channel is dying. It's hard to watch. He didn't play his cards right with you and in his life in general it seems.

He was doing great wasnt it. He was ripped, feasting and full of gratitude then some people got in his ear, he found out I was banging a tonne of chicks and he flipped in a bad way. The positives though is he and ANYONE who is watching can see how he was wrong after all. Im still ripped and fit AF. I dont track my cals or bullshit like that. I just wake up every day and live my best life. :)

I wish you answered more asks more often.

My coaching group at www.durianrider.com is where I am every day and ALL questions are answered :)
