Dude, even your own point of increasing LDL particle size is a huge thing. So is increasing HDL and reducing ratios. Not to mention if you start looking up other sources you will start to find out that Cholesterol and mortality rates are not connected either. High cholesterol is not a significant factor in and of itself to cause heart attacks or heart disease.
Lastly yes I do have people tested. If they come to me with these issues we schedule them to go to there doctor as we continue training. I can't have someone on BP meds or statins lowering their numbers without the medicines being monitored for dosages. Nothing would be worse than having someone get healthier and taking unnecessary amounts of a medicine that could dangerously lower their cholesterol or BP
Do you believe that someone could lose 40lbs of fat, increase LBM by 5-7lbs, their VO2max and overall energy levels and actually raise their blood lipids negatively?
