Meal Timing & Meal Frequency

  Meal Timing & Meal Frequency Here is the honest truth about meal frequency. It doesn't really matter if you eat three or six meals or anything in between. All studies on different meal frequencies have shown that different setups lead to basically the same results. This also means you don't gain anything from eating several small meals. No, it doesn't boost your metabolism to any meaningful degree and your overall energy expenditure will be the same as if you ate three large meals. But what about the extreme cases like only two meals per day or more than six? More than six meals shouldn't be a problem in theory, but for me personally it wouldn't be practical to be preparing meals all the time. Two or even just one meal per day can lead to problems because they would have to be quite big to cover your daily calories. Also, when it comes to protein you want to ensure a steady supply throughout the day which would be difficult with only one meal as your body woul...

Calorie Deficit The single most important factor for weight loss is always a calorie deficit. From a scientific standpoint whether you gain weight or lose weight is determined by the first law of thermodynamics which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transformed from one type to another. I don't want to turn this into a physics lesson but when applied to dieting, the first law of thermodynamics states that your body weight is dependent only on the difference between the amount of calories that you consume versus the amount of calories that you burn, which is known as your caloric balance. Before we go into the different forms of calories balances, let's first talk about what a calorie actually is. A food calorie is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 litre of water by 1 degree Celsius. As you can see, calories are a form of energy measurement. When you eat food, you are consuming the energy that is stored within ...

  The Perfect Pre-Workout meals  Once you know you're getting all of your total macros right for the day, both your pre and post workout meal are the most important meals of the day (and not your breakfast like many people believe). Let's first talk about pre workout nutrition. It's main function is to fuel the workout itself and maximize your performance throughout. Sounds simple, right? That's because it is. Unfortunately, the fitness world has really overcomplicated this, and many gurus will sell you super specific recommendations or products that really don't make a difference. Let's cut through all of that nonsense and figure out exactly what you should be eating before your workout. Like I said before this meal is meant to fuel your workout. In a scientific sense it's meant to do three things: Reduce muscle glycogen depletion. Reduce muscle protein breakdown.  Reduce post workout cortisol levels. How exactly do you accomplish this? Easy, you eat carbs ...
