8% Bodyfat

   This article is one that has taken some time to get to, namely since Ive been trying out a nutritional plan that I did NOT develop but wanted to evaluate for myself and on others, and now that I am convinced that it can be done, I will share it with you. This nutritional solution is pretty effective and gives you several options, and was developed by none other than Dave Palumbo. To be honest I thought I would HATE eating this way but it is very similar to the way I normally eat now. And you wont starve yourself eating this way, actually it forces you into a schedule which most people need anyway. Now, this solution CAN bring you to sub-8% bodyfat, but it will not do so overnight, or after a week, unless you happen to be starting at 9% BF, and if you are there, chances are you dont need this nutritional solution.

Chicken and Almonds FTW

There are only a few rules:

• Eat every 3 hours (this includes within 30 minutes of waking and within an hour of bed)
• DONT SKIP MEALS
• IM SERIOUS DONT SKIP MEALS
• Give it a week and see if you havent seen any results. (this assumes that your metabolism and hormonal levels are near normal)

 Here are your options, eat ONE of these every 3 hours.

1. 8 oz. Chicken or turkey + 1/2 cup almonds
2. 8 oz. lean fish (tuna, flounder, catfish, etc) + 1/2 cup almonds
3. 5 whole eggs
4. 8 oz red meat (ground beef, flank steak, etc) + 1 tablespoon olive oil
5. 50 grams whey protein isolate + 1/2 cup nuts

Notes:

• 1/2 cup of almonds can be substituted with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter

• you can eat unlimited amounts of these with any meal:

             Broccoli
             Kale
             Asparagus
             Brussels Sprouts
             Collard Greens
             Spinach

• For every 10 lbs ABOVE 200 lbs, add 1 oz. protein to each meal (if you weigh 220, add 2 oz, so meal option #2 would be 10 oz tuna + 1/2 cup almonds)

Thats really all there is to it.
