The diet of a 19 year Master Chief who is a Navy SEAL(get in here and lets discuss)

[oneillio]

I eat like this except I don't fast. I can't imagine not eating for 12 hours. I'm hungry all the fuking. Does IF really make that big of a difference? What if your goals are strength oriented will you really be able to make large strides on your lifts if you're eating once every 12 hours?

[Acevedo85]

crossfit-like workouts are the basis for almost every special operation force in the US military. u mad?

lol at bandwaggon haters on the misc.

lol this

[Acevedo85]

Even less so IMO. Lower intensity exercise, such as running a marathon, is aerobic, thus your muscles can still use fat for energy.

There's actually a specific type of fat called intramuscle triglycerides that behaves very similarly to glycogen.

Glycogen is really only essential during anaerobic exercise, which is high intensity, IE weight lifting.

so i can pretty much drink coconut oil while running(not HIIT)? what about swimming?

[fevr]

oh this is bodybuilding.com? how the fuk did i end up here???


OP just simply made a thread about what a SEAL's diet looked like. He didn't say for everyone here to be on it.

Dumbass, I'm explaining why a lot of people initially had a negative reaction to this. Had you read and actually thought about what I posted you would have realized this.

Try to play pro baseball as reading and critical thinking aren't your strong suits.

I don't understand the hatred for Crossfit. It really is an additional tool you can use to better your body. I have been weight training for more than 20 years. I tried crossfit about a year ago, and can honestly say it is a great workout. If you are trying to bulk up, I don't recommend it. However, for general betterment of your physique, it is awesome.

lmao take it easy nancy. You informed me that this was bodybuilding.com and that it would not be beneficial for bodybuilders to be on this diet.

no **** sherlock

I wasn't even necessarily talking about you when i said people in the misc blindly make fun of crossfit.

****ing this

end the hate/

Yeah I'm fairly convinced carbs are extremely overrated and when eaten in excess can be much more dangerous than fats. I know tards will claim this is broscience and you need carbs, but this is all based off what I've learned as a biochem major as well as hours of my own research, and my own experimental dieting.

it's not that complicated. Everyone's bodies are programmed different. Some do well on high carbs, others only gain fat from it. This is why you can't go by someone else's program

[Fanatik]

brb just because he does better on low carbs means everyone else will be exactly the same and will also have the same cholesterol issues

I feel like **** when on keto or carb cycling

u need green veg on keto

[GetHimABodyBag]

I'm actually thinking about doing crossfit type of exercises. I'm tired of doing the same **** over again at the gym

youre a fireman right?

heavy tire drags..attached a rope and drag it forward(hoseline) and backwards(rescue)

sledgehammer swings on said tire(ventilation, force entry)

heavy farmers walks(equipment carry, increase grip/forearm strength)

push press(overhaul)

clean and jerk(ladder raise-helps with coordination, lower body explosiveness/strength/power)

heavy tire pull(feeding hose-get on 1 knee and pull it in)

sandbag lift and carry(rescue, equipment)

deadlifts(rescue/lifting pt.'s)

front squats and zercher squats(otj performance is mostly front loaded, ie rescue)

The problem with CrossFit is that it does not address specificity, firefighters do very specific movements. Even the Crossfit-Firefighter site is a joke. Yes, your conditioning will go up, but why not improve conditioning and job performance. I looked at their workouts......no heavy drags or loaded carries. Why do 100 pushups, when you should do 50 reps with a 45 pound plate on your back? Why go on a rowing machine when you can pull in a heavy tire/weight??? Why throw a medicine ball against a wall??? Or jump on 24 inch box?? Why not lift and carry a sandbag, do suicide sprints, do heavy farmers walks???

Don't job on the bandwagon like other fireman do and join a CrossFit.

Most people who say CrossFit is great, is because they did the typical bench press/curls jog 30 minutes routine, they never did intense interval training before.

Also doing bb'ing/isolation/hypertrophy work should be done, despite what CF's tell you, you need to strengthen every part of your body.

[ChosenBrah]

fasting??? fuk that i get hungry between breakfast and lunch

[Fit1NYC]

Intresasting

[Acevedo85]

has anyone attempted this type of diet with endurance training?

[BigBeard86]

i can say the same as he. low carbs makes me feel much more energetic and improves my strength. high carbs just slow me down.

[stevedarsh]

stopped reading at "Here"

[thefloopist]

He left out the part where he guzzles gallons of sailor sperm daily. Us green berets eat those pussy seals for breakfast. Back in nam, we used to have those seals scrubbing our fleshlights out with their toothbrushes. Back in nam, when you could rent a little squinty eyed boy for a few dollars an hour to do with as you please, and we knew what we were fighting for man.

[invain]

it's not that complicated. Everyone's bodies are programmed different. Some do well on high carbs, others only gain fat from it. This is why you can't go by someone else's program

People's metabolism levels differ, as well as things such as insulin sensitivity, but in the end we all process foods the same way, and macro nutrients cause the same hormonal cascades in every human body. We are not that much different.

[invain]

so are fats and protein. Anything in excess is overrated. The author of the article or what ever it was has a flaw. He states that he consumes about 70% of his calories from fats. No **** his performance is not going to be hinder. In the end fats and carbs are energy source.

ib4 high carb nazi. Did you know that low carb dieting can cause diabetes?

I would love for you to post a study showing low carb diets causing diabetes. Makes absolutely no sense if you understood how the disease actually worked. There's always one or two strange exceptions however. You probably heard of one bizarre case and think it applies to everybody.

[vitriol]

I stopped crossfitting at reading.

[psychnurse2012]

this intermittent fasting that you guys speak of, and the article speaks of, how does it really work?

i have been thinking of doing it because of current circumstances. i see he speaks of 15 hours of not eating?

so is that saying, stop eating at 10 at night, and fast for 15 hours so basically if you slept 8 hours, and you add 7 hours upon that of day fasting, means that one eats at like 3 until 10....

what do they eat there? the 500 over maintenance, or maintenance?

i have checked out that lean gains blog and never understand how much calories is suppose to be eaten.

the first real answer will get repped

[RuStillDown]

Eating almost no carbs + fasting for up to 24 hours regularly? I dont get it, how would you even be able to hit your maintenance calories every day? You would barely have any muscle mass on a diet like this

I have done this every day for the last 2 months and I am now below 10% bf still weigh 180 strength has increased just slightly but what has been most dramatic has been the incredible energy I seem to have now and mental clarity. A regular meal for me looks like this. Full bag of mixed veggies( broccoli carrots green beans) 2-3 steaks or a full safeway chicken, spinach salad with almonds olive oil pecans tomatoes. Then relax, wAtch some tv or something, 2 hours later hunger is stirring again. Head of broccoli 4-6 hard boiled eggs tbsp peanut butter ( or 3) flaxseed oil more almonds . That's it. Fast for another 16+ hours ,24+ hours non workout. Meals are different every night but same idea. sometimes I'll eat an apple around noon if I feel the need, but usually not.

[cuttin.bruh]

It's been proven the body performs at its best at caloric deficits. Don't remember the study i read it in, but we are not meant to eat like we do.

brb had over 4600 cals today

[Condescending]

I'm a Master Chief too. My diet consists of pizza bagles and redbull.
