Default Re: Weight Loss help

a body building diet from the twenties that i have had good results goes something like this;


-lots of low fat carbs before training
-frequent small meals for ease of digestion and increased motabolism
-mostly non meat for fast digestion so that you can get training

which looks like;

-porridge and fruit for breaky
-rice and legumes with lots of vegies for lunch
-fruit juice and nofat milk by the litre

you will develop methods of storing food with you. avoid being hungry, always eat and always eat withing 20 minutes of training. this will really get you going, you'll notice a difference in training performance.

at the end of the day when your training is finnished and sleep is approaching the program changes to;

-protein rich food for muscle repair
-no carbohydrates for glycogen depletion
-heavy green vegies for pranic energy (wide eyed and bushy tailed)
-fruit juice and nofat milk by the litre

which looks like;

-steak (salmon, portahouse, chicken fillet, etc...)
-huge plate of vegies

this will feel strange at first having meat and no rice or pasta. you might feel really hungry after a normal portion. increase the amount but resist the tempation to eat carbs. this is the secret to getting super lean. all day you have been carb loading and burning energy in training so your motabolism is sky high. at night you fuel up with protein and iron and stop the supply of glycogen. while you sleep your raging motabolism eats all the energy in your system and nothing turns to fat.

the more strict you are the better it works and it's a diet that is sustainable. to get leaner make the changeover from carbs to protein sooner. depending on your training timetable, 6pm might be a good time to change. to get leaner you might bring it back to 5pm. that one hour makes a big difference to your results and to how much energy you have in that part of the day so figure it out first.

if you have a big competion the following day continue to carb load into the evening and your body will store energy for the next day.
