    Personally, I take one bite of food every 23 seconds of the day to keep my metabolism firing and my tummy satisfied.

    That's why you look so good, Nark. Can you imagine what you'd look like if you nibbled....say.....every 8-10 seconds?!?!?

    Ya I eat sometimes every two hours, its not a directly SET thing, but definitely happens considering I gotta eat when I can at school, so between classes it definitely turns out to be every 2 hours. But then there are times I almost go 4 hours due to f*ckin school as well. 7 Meals a day is good for me.

    Usually every 2.5 however lately I've been getting hungry after 1.5-2. I'd split it up so that you can get all your days worth of macros in 6-7 meals spaced evenly throughout the day.

    Its pretty hard to get on a strict eating diet of every two hours. I found myself cooking alot so now I cook alot of chicken at once and nibble on it for days.

    Oh so now nibbling is funny eh ?
    Just today I nibbled 2 chicken breast for 1 hour at work. So pretty much i'd nibble one little fiber piece of that breast every 5 sec.
    I nibble food every day.
    Usually I eat every 2 - 2.5 hours.

    ^^ macro ratios don't change.

    Only overall kcal-count

    ^^e.g.
    45 % carb 40% pro 15 % fat.. .will result in different totals @ 2400 kcal maintenance than it will at 1800 kcal maintenance.

    Carbs per se are not 'controlled'... as 'maintenance' changes so do the totals of the individual macronutrients.. but not the relationship (i.e. the ratio) of the individual macros.

    ^^ Nah.. gr totals are irrelevant.

    Kcal totals however are not.

    You'd have to play with the percentages to find out how your body responds obviously but I agree with Nark.

    You'll notice many old school BB'ers had this same school of thought although they didn't follow the ideas of the mainsteam but yet always came in shredded.

    Agreed.. Those were just random percentages tossed up there by the way.

    I'd never put what i use personally..that'd be bad for business lol.

    Exactly

    Furthermore a lot of oldschoolers didn't make dietary adjustments precontest.

    They only adjusted expenditure. (i.e. training intensity etc.)

    One of friends who just turned pro used to tell me when i first started competing: "Food is the last variable i adjust"

    He'd up intensity.. up cardio.. up posing.. and drop food in that order.

    Incrementally of course.

    If fat loss stagnated when intensity went up.. cardio would be implemented/increased... When fat loss started to slow again.. 30 minutes posing would be tossed in.. When a plateau was reached... frequency of one or more of the above variables would be increased.

    In the very latter stages, food intake would be manipulated.

    And he always came shredded.

    A lot of guys in my country use this regime.

    Those that've gone the pro/fat route like mags advertise...they get in shape, but their muscles never get as full upon the carb up.. Or they have a flaccid unhealthy look. I have seen a lot of the NPC guys with this same short coming.

    Carbs are not the enemy.
