I have been sabotaging my results for about 8 months now and have just recently decided to put an end to it. I've been doing a 22 hour fast and eating only from 8-10 p.m. Basically living off alphamine during the day, a pwo with lots of caffeine, and some Amino IV intra. Food is 95% clean, which has allowed me to maintain low bf (I'm 5'7", 160# and roughly 10% but have gotten as low as 8%). I lift 4 days/week following 5/3/1 and do crossfit metcons 2-3. Not only has my eating style been crap, but I don't rest nearly enough. I look good, but feel bad.
I employed this bastardized version of the warrior diet last year and it seemed to fit my lifestyle so I rolled with it. What ended up happening is that food became a psychological reward for making it through a full day of work and a brutal training session. "Just make it to 8 p.m., then you can eat and relax." Like I said, I was eating clean so I didn't get fat, but I wasn't eating enough or often enough to sustain growth and progress in strength. I would also go to bed bloated as hell every night, not sleep well and wake up lethargic.
Now I am going to go back to a 50/30/20 split and see what happens. Meal timing will be more frequently throughout the day. I like to train fasted, so I will probably switch to mornings before work. I'm going to focus on more lean meats, sweet potatoes, brown rice, quinoa and healthy fats. I am hoping to put on some lean mass and start making progress in strength and metcons.
Haha, wish me luck!
