Totally! I do love the advice too! What was it again? Put the food in the fridge right? And a complete shocker: check the dates! Who would've thought that right? I'm pretty sure there are some seven-year-olds who may not remember that. I wouldn't have the courage to say this to my 11-year-old daughter - she'd be offended. The only thing I still dont' know: do you actually remove the protective foil or do you microwave it too? I hope this will feature in the next Q&A video. Can't wait. In the meantime, just to err on the side of caution, I WILL not remove the foil, it's full of vitamins too I suppose.

You need those carbs cause you are killing it each day. Awesome share. I’m the opposite it would take me 34 days to consume 340 carbs. I have less than 10 carbs a day with exception of what I get from the 10 cups of vegetables I eat everyday (I never count the veggie carbs) It’s always interesting how different we all can eat especially when we have similar likes and goals. However I only put in 2 hours of workout time per day. Thank you again.

I train 1-3 hours per day and on the low side I will get 2200 calories with 143p/256c/75f for my macros. On the high end I will do 2800 calories with 176p/316c/93f. I don’t gain any weight off of this but it’s very interesting how different your requirements are vs mine with all that training. Thank you so much for making this!

Im skinny and not an athlete and I eat that much on a normal day and I hit that with 3 normal meals and I’m still always hungry 😂😂😂😂😂. It’s funny because a lot of ppl can’t imagine eating 350g of carbs but it’s not. My break fast shake alone has 150g and gets without bananas. I normally add 3 bananas but ran out today. So that means I hit about 200g of carbs just with my shake. For lunch I eat pasta a lot. About half or 3/4 of a pack plus 4 pieces of bruschetta. Then in the evening I eat salmon to some type of fish again with bruschetta lol. If I tracked my carbs (which I need to because I want to get back into working out) I’d probably hit north of 500g on a normal day. I actually have an issue hitting the right amount of protein. So I will actually have to adjust my carb intake down and my protein intake up. I’m skinny so who knows maybe I should eat 600g of carbs and 150g of protein and about 90g of fat. I’d probably gain too much. Body fat.

Why 6 hours a day? Why 4 hours a day? What kind of life is that? 2 hours is a long workout. Why not intense and far more brief? I don't understand it at all. It is not functional nor productive in the long run. Adrenal fatigue, neuromuscular fatigue are most definitely the result, no matter how much you eat. So between shopping, meal prep and eating the meals, and 6 hour workout totals, you don't have much time for walking in the woods, social interaction (at the now 6 foot distance), etc.

Your body will adjust to almost anything. Doesn't mean it's optimal. According to most diet doctors and nutritionist the body has zero need for carbs and if not burned all off goes directly into fat production Low carb is the way to go and get fat adapted. Do KETO. It works long term and you don't have to knock yourself out at a gym to burn off all those unneeded carbs.
