What people need to figure out is are they eating the correct calories for an AFL aggressive Fat Loss M maintenance or LB lean bulk.. But what I've found is yes 16:8 is bang on I IF everyday and I am going around 19-20 hours and eat for about 3 hours. I eat potatoes in every form possible as I feel rice at times makes me hungry later but I eat what I want within reason I enjoy good good pizza, burgers everything and I've lost 9lbs with limited effort but now the real.journey behind with this app as I can correctly track my calories it says I can eat up to 2600 cals but I'm going AFL first so my calorie intake maximum will be about 1800 - 2000. The correct combination of foods will allow good some delicious recipes and satisfying feeling of being full
your body can only burn so much fat a day in a deficit. if you are losing fat aggressively then you are losing lean mass/muscle if you are losing weight too fast. too big of a deficit will do you NO favors and you may see your performance in your workouts suffer as well as possible health issues cropping up.0 -
Is this a good idea if I want to put on muscle? Does meal timing matter that much in a lean bulk or bulking?0
