On carb cycling:
"When I competed I ate up to 1.5 grams per pound of bodyweight of protein and kept my carbs lower for 3 days in a row, usually around 50 grams per day, then I'd increase to 150 grams on the fourth day, along with food supplements."
"I would stay on my carb cycling program right up until two days before the contest. This was 250 grams of Protein, 50 grams of fat per day, 50 grams of carbs per day, doing this for 3 days in a row. On the fourth day the protein and fat intakes remained the same but carbs increased to 150 grams per day, most of which were consumed early in the day and right after my workout."
on eating when hungry:
"I actually ate standing up so I'd eat smaller amounts at any one feeding to shrink my waist. I'd take a break in the middle of the meal for 5 minutes and relax, eating slowly throughout the meal. I allowed myself to get hungry before I ate a small meal combined with supplements. When I got hungry I'd practice stomach vacuums, which delayed hunger and allowed for more fat burning. Hunger is a cry from the fat cells on your body to feed them so they don't die. Have no mercy.
