I also am doing a Zero Carb diet. I started off Keto, but felt I lost too much muscle from the traditional macro ratios. My diet is mostly ribeye, but also have bacon and eggs. No plant foods except...

So you negged me into the red because I pointed out it had more fat than protein?

Primarily because he was asking for an alternative protein source, and the one he listed was a better source of fat than protein. :)

Muscle would only be used as energy if you were on an extended fast (days), or your bodyfat stores are extremely low.

Greek yogurt would be a cheap option as well. Chicken breasts where I live are 1.99LB.

I don't think Cyborg would make millions. She just isn't marketable to the general public. I don't know if she is genetically more masculine, or from all the "minute maid" use in the past, but she is...

I find your response ironic, seeing as you have the following in your signature:

I never suggested you to use it. This thread was started by someone who did. Myself, and other were discussing our experiences. If I came off as insulting, I apologize. That wasn't my intention.

From the abstract of said study...

Go Hawkeyes! :)
(I used to live in Iowa and have family there.)

I feel I'm being more defensive than combative. I've accepted the point that a larger eating window probably allows quicker/greater...

Ok, first you concede building muscle is possible with IF, and later to make another point about dieting you suggest retaining muscle will be hard.

Which one is true?

Why can't you accept that...

This will be my last post on the subject.

I'm 57, not 20. I've been into a "fitness" lifestyle for over 40 years. I've experimented with every kind of training and diet you can think of. As far as...

This just isn't true. I understand you don't like IF. I will also concede that "current" research points to better muscle building with a greater feeding window. However, some people just feel, and...

Most in this forum have a dim view of IF.
I personally have done it for over 10 years, and lately went back to eating in the morning due to the new research. I got no noticable gains (although I'm...

I've posted in 3 threads about IF in the past year. Partly because of statements like "starving myself for 16 hours". There is a very condescending tone in that response. I have never stated it was...

I never used the word pointless. How is suggesting there is more than one way to reach your goals narrow minded? I've been into fitness for over 40 years, and there seems to be cycles of "this is...

Alan A. was very specific in that "meal timing" was low on the list of importance. This is all good theoretical discussion, but unless you are making a living from athletic/physique endeavors,...

I didn't want to go into great specifics. Like many people around 200 lbs, my weight can fluctuate 4-8 lbs a day depending upon many variables. To make up for eating more in the morning, I tried to...

Because my calories went up, due to constant hunger and stress.



My morning meal was a whey protein shake. It made me ravenous, and so I would break down and buy more food a couple hours...

That's just it. it is an inconvenience to many people who have a life outside of bodybuilding.
I spent decades micro-managing my meals, and stressing whenever I missed one. IF freed me from that,...
