Mine would be different because I work 9-5 and I go to the gym later at night. So I would start fasting at Midnight and then fast until 4pm. I'd have essentially breakfast at 4pm, lunch at 7pm and then dinner when I get home from the gym at 10:30pm. From the thread for this on bodybuilding.com it seems like it takes peoples bodies a week or two to get used to, but the results seem great
Edit: Just to clarify during the fasting stage you are supposed to intake 0 calories so you can pretty much only drink water (he recommends with BCAA) and/or straight black coffee

He said you should have 80% of your caloric intake post workout. With only eating one meal after your workout, that's gonna be one big fucking dinner.
Mine would be:
Wake up @ 5:30 AM
Drink water with BCAA / or Coffee/ or Tea until first meal
Have first meal of day @ 12:00 PM
Have pre-workout shake around 3:00 / 3:30 PM
Workout at 4:00 / 4:30 PM
Eat large dinner at 6:00 / 6:30 PM
Eat again at 8:00 PM
Fast until noon the next day.
Repeat..
The question I have is, what is caloric intake supposed to be? Is it the recommended intake of 2,000 + calories or is it supposed to be less considering it is a "diet"? I imagine the word
diet with the respect to this regimen refers to lifestyle, or general eating habits, not the way most Americans think of the word (ie. South Beach, Atkins, Weight Watchers).
He also says you can drink Diet Soda's (thank God) I'm a Diet Coke freak.
And I'll be stocking up on nicotine gum to curb my appetite the first couple weeks until I get used to the program.
I'm going to start on Feb. 1 and give it two months and see how it works out.
Thanks to whomever brought this to our attention.
