Protocol for missed meal?

GlennGugliaJr · Feb 29, 2024

Tuesday night got only 5 hours of sleep. Yesterday hit legs and had a tattoo appointment that went till 8. Went home and ate meal 5 and passed out around 10 and didnt eat 6th meal. Ive been following this meal plan strict for months now. Today is an off training day so there are less carbs. So wondering if i should just stretch that over todays meals or just the protein, and maybe carbs tomorrow, or whats the protocol? Thank you

One missed meal isn't going to hurt. Go about your normal day.

Outside of very specific local circumstances (IE in the 48 hours or so before a "peak" whether that be a bodybuilding show or a sporting event depending on your goal). A single isolated missed meal isn't really going to have any impact if you're consistent the rest of the time.

It's only a concern if you're frequently missing a meal (IE on a weekly basis) in which case I'd suggest you need to look at your overall plan and how that fits around your life balance.
