Re: SIM..flawed or not?
Well, I do go out for pizza every now and then. But I do have a well balanced and healthy diet I like to stick to. I do treat myself. I mean, I don't want to eat rabbithttps://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/monk4.gif food 100 percent of my waking life. There is no fun in that. Well, I want to keep at a certain body weight and fat percentage. Whatever makes one happy I guess. It's not for everyone.
But it's like this... McDonalds or be lean and fit? I rather take being lean and fit than gorging on some McDick burgers. Doesn't a Big Mac have like 45 grams of fat, 30 of which is unsaturated/transfats? Not to mention like 1,000 mg of sodium.
This is Arnold Schwarzenegger's diet when he was really into training...
Eat 5-6
smaller meals a day
Eat carbs half an hour after exercising
Rest at least 3 days a week
Sleep 8 or more hours a day
Eat 30 to 50 grams of protein with each meal every 3 hours
Not avoid unsaturated fats because they raise hormone levels
Eat between 60 and 100 grams of carbs per day
Eat no more than 3 eggs a day
Substitute beef and pork with chicken and fish
Avoid sugar -- it contains empty calories; eat fruits and vegetables for carbs instead
Use supplements and protein shakes to get the required daily amount of protein
