I’ve been trying out IF for a couple of weeks now, with the holiday period it sort of went stop start but before that I did only see improvements in lifting so I’m happy to really crack on with it now, although I feel my diet could do with some improvement/tweaks if anyone could advise.
Stats:
25 yo
5’11
186lbs
Diet: 16/8 - 12pm - 8pm
Wake: 7am coffee/BCAA’s/multi vits/yohimbine/fish oil
12pm: 2 chicken breast + 1/4 cup rice / yohimbine
3:30pm (pre wo): 3 hard boiled eggs, lettuce / fish oil / BCAA’s / multi vit / shake
4:30pm TRAIN
5:30-5:45: PWO Shake
7pm: Jacket potato w/ either tuna + coleslaw or baked beans/cheese, steak or chicken breast. Or possibly a Nando’s whole chicken with either ceaser salad or chips/coleslaw.
(Dinner can be a little dirty food wise to try get the carbs/calories in)
I’m gonna start adding some low intensity cardio after lifting again (haven’t done it for a few months) to help move things along, but diet wise is there enough in there? I’m looking to cut around the gut again and after doing the Low Carb/Carb Cycling approach last year which worked reasonably well (through trial and error)I want to give IF a crack cuz of the easier lifestyle it offers.
Any improvements/tweaks would really help, saves me the trial and error period again lol. cheers.
