From “Intermittent Fasting” to eating 6 times a day to understanding what’s happening at physiological level and how can you modify it to put yourself in the best position to succeed. We first cover the definition of meal timing

on both a daily and weekly basis. After discussing the basics, we go into the biggest debate of macro-nutrient timing

and how you can focus on meal timing in respect to your metabolism, as well as how it can be used to gain muscle mass

Moving on, we explain macro timing

what’s happening from a caloric stand point, and arguments around the different eating windows. Alongside that discussion, we help further your understanding of the thermic effect of food

This leads us to answering the question of “is there a benefit to eating 6 times a day so your body can turn into a metabolic thermis?” Once we’ve answered and explained our thoughts on that debate, we talk about what Intermittent Fasting really is

and if it’s really a “diet” or not. Additionally, we go into depth on whether breakfast really is the most important meal of the day
