    So, from 11-7 you already have 8 hours without food...if you just tack on a few hours before bed and a few hours after bed you'll be at 16 in no time. If you work out at 5:30 and have your biggest meal from 7-8 and stop eating at 8, you'll have 11 hours in by your 7am wake up time.

    I'm going with you on this one, bro...if I get my min protein in and don't feel like eating more, I'm done for the day. It gives me more wiggle room for re-feeds. To me, the most important thing is that I'm cycling my carbs in around workouts, keeping them low on off days, and hitting my...

    So, you plan on eating a meal at 5 pm and then again at 11pm, before bed? I don't really see how that's a true fast, at least not from a hormonal standpoint. Don't get me wrong, if it got you to 4% BF, it obviously helps you manage calories and create a deficit, but IF is about more than...

    Mine has 5 calories per 5 gram scoop and I don't count it. I take it right after my workout, around 7, and don't break my fast until at least 12. I train completely fasted.

    I'll Keep that in mind...its very easy for me to under eat and I guess I assume (perhaps wrongfully) that "less is more." I swear I've read Berkhan and Pilon state that catabolism doesn't really start until after about 36 hours of straight fasting, and event then not at a crazy rate. If this is...

    Good to know. Sometimes I read the calories the other guys are eating and I'm like wtf? I think I'd explode.

    Live to Lift, what are your maintenance and daily goals (on/off days)? You're pretty close to my size...I'm wondering if my 1500/2700 is too low. I know it varies greatly depending on the individual, but I'm curious to see if I'm in the right ball park with my numbers.

    Hey all, I'm new to anabolicminds and stumbled upon it while Googling info on Leangains. I just read through every one of these posts (took forever) and I have to say that this is one of the most supportive and welcoming sites I've seen. Thank you all for the wealth of information and...
