Thanks a lot Rob so just to clear up: breakfast its good to have some fast digestive carbs even if its brown sugar for example? (I usually have no other sugars during day besides post workout)
A. Yes, insulin sensitivity is highest earlier during the day, less so at night.
and for the 1 day fasting what would you recommend once every 2 weeks, a month! I'm going to experiment but I was still curious to try it out during cruise?
A. You may want to try it away from Blueprint. I don't do entire day fasts. Rather, I practice the warrior diet approach.
This involves fasting until say, 4PM. Then a small piece of fruit with a small protein drink... workout and then WHAM - you slam virtually all of your calories for the day withing the 2-4 hour window after the workout.
I'll tell you what... you sleep real well doing this. Murder during the day (until you adjust) and then real happy ending after you're stuffed. Suggest fasting until 11AM, then adding an hour each day. Ease into this stuff. First day I did it went for the gusto off the top. Dizzy + driving don't mix well. On the positive side, you'll pass the breathalizer with flying colors. You won't feel so hot though, if you get in an accident. Better safe than sorry
