"weird extreme efects", also known as low bodyfat. Something you seem unlikely to ever reach regardless of how much broscience you aggressively spout throughout this thread. I'd prefer to deflect and focus on bloatmogging as well if I looked like you.

If he has been bodybuilding for 22 years, he most likely played Tekken once or twice too, which raises your natty limits, even after you discontinue. I know dudes who are 5'10 and 180-190 (not even shredded) who look massive.

Spreading protein intake over the day is better than not doing so.

TLDR higher meal frequency = Less catabolic (preserve more muscle), lower LDL (by 13%), total cholesterol, lower insulin levels (by 28%)





Slowly realizing how wrong the whole "just iifym bro" fad has been
can't say for enhanced individuals but i have bulked for close to 2 years in 3 meals a day. Ofcourse the protein and vegies were high and i hit the same macros, hell even more became fat too.

So i think it's a myth cause u hit ur cal's in a meal and macro's so what does it have to do with meal numbers

Conclusions

Our results suggest that an intermittent fasting program in which all calories are consumed in an 8-h window each day, in conjunction with resistance training, could improve some health-related biomarkers, decrease fat mass, and maintain muscle mass in resistance-trained males.

If your only interested in gaining or loseing weight, calories is literally the only thing that matters.

The real trick is losing as little muscle as possible when cutting and gaining only muscle when "bulking". Otherwise you just stay in a cycle of skinnyfat to bloatlord to skinnyfat, etc.

Humans are adapted to hunter gatherer lifestyle which mean your diet should e 95% animal products (whole food not processed) and you should eat 2 times at most as they would be fasting for long hours until they caught their prey. What you need to know is that every time we eat no matter what we get insulin spike and insulin block growth hormones on the other hand if you have been fasting for a while your body produce extra growth hormone which in turn is going to make you age slower and grow bigger muscles and lose fat. If you are constantly eating every 3 hours and snacking on something nonstop like a retarded cow grazing on grass all day then you are just going to spike insulin nonstop and block your growth hormones
Just get 2 big meals a day and you are good

A personal trainer as well as a VERY shredded Miscer told me that meal timing is a thing of the past. Layne Norton used to preach the need for a meal every 3 hours. but now believes that isn't necessary. Lack of meals is key...or something.

I personally like 35 small meals spread throughout the day

My concern there is that those big meals are a potential burden on your body to process.

Certainly an interesting study, however, the IF group still had 4 protein feedings in those 8 hours. So this study doesn't really support lower meal frequencies.

What's more, they only used a 200 calorie deficit and muscle was not directly measured, it was estimated based on caliper measurements and circumference measurements of arms and thighs. This is a relatively inaccurate method.

Who cuts on IF with a 200 calorie deficit: practically no one. Larger deficits have been shown to reduce MPS further.

And if you really want to know what happens with muscle mass you need to actually measure it with a method accurate enough to do so, like ultrasound, MRI and/or biopsy.

Not sure if you noticed but it's a study in mice. Mice do exceptionally well with prolonged fasting. There are many rodent studies that don't translate to humans. This seems to be one of those areas as most studies in humans have shown small benefits from higher meal frequencies.

And auto****y is not all it's hyped up to be.

the problem with meal frequency is the hunger aspect. People who eat meals more frequently will be hungry more often and that hunger will grow the longer periods of fasting they go. It is a good idea to switch to IF for a few weeks to get adapted to it before going on a cut if you are a 5-6 meal a day person.

* eat 5-7 times a day
* protein at every meal
* complex carbs for breakfast and pre and post workout
* sugar peri/post workout (fruit included here)
* seperate carbs and fats
* eat bulk green veggies
* weekly or bi weekly cheat meal
* figure out TDEE and add 500 calories to bulk or minus 500 calories to cut using the above principles.

EASY

It is one of many options, but as previous state, it may not work well for every individual and under ever circumstance. For example, if your job or career requires explosive energy or if the fasting interferes with your focus, concentration or disposition.
