Cutting!

[James]

For optimal environment, 30-60 minutes daily of brisk walking ina totally fasted state. This will maximise blood flow in bad fat receptor areas whilst not impacting on recovery or strength (especially in lower body), for workouts keep to mainly compound lifts, heavy and intensity at low volume no more than 3 times a week. Remember you are training to keep mass, not add it! Anything extra will muck up or impact recovery which in turn will effect hormones which in turn will slow, or even stop, fat loss. A good quote - 'a calorie definct is a recovery definct'.

Hi Conway. I don't eat breakfast and I always eat the majority of my calories late, I also eat a lot of Ben & Jerrys after I exercise. Do you think I can still have a slim belly and backside?

So start eating breakast. skip the ben & Jerrys (too expensive anyway lol)

Depends on your metabolism + your body type. some people gain weight easilly, some don't.

Doesn't matter if you eat before you go to bed. it does matter what you eat before going to bed. don't eat crisps before you go to bed but some: quark cheese, add some flavour+nuts en water

tbh it wont make a difference what you eat before bed either, as long as your hitting the correct calories for your goals. you could eat 2000 calories worth of crisps before bed and if your maintenance was 2500, you would lose weight.

obviously dont do that. but just saying.

true do. but it doesn't make any sense? you not going to burn those carbs in the evening..

try thinking of it differently, think of all fat protein and carbs as calories instead. its 12am you dont eat anything till 12am the following night, in that 24 hours you have burnt 2500 now if you eat 2500 calories its going to go back into maintaining muscle and the rest is going to back into the fat you burned early that day, so at the end of the day you havent added or taken anything away so you will look exactly the same? did that make sense?

it is much more complicated than that, but thats the best i could explain it.

One of the worst things about forums is you cannot get the sarcasm or hate or whatever emotion the person is feeling through just the text. But i love Dolph's post as anyone who has been on the forum for a bit knows it was the most sarcastic comment ever and the response after was priceless. Made me chuckle.
