      You do realize you also have trained your body to do this though? And reinforce the habit by continuing to do it. Most everything is a habit, whether created intentionally or unintentionally.
      You could change this, but you have to be willing to allow your body and brain to have a period of adjustment, which initially will not be fun and seem counterintuitive. I know because I used to be a night owl that is now a morning person.
      My excuse for the longest time was "that just doesn't work for me" but imo that's a cop out and simply a lack of willingness. But if you prefer it that way then more power to ya.

      I'm the same as you, as soon as I eat it fucks my day up. I can't stop eating from that point onwards, I just don't get full, and my brain stops working properly. If I eat one meal in the evening I get full really quick and it doesn't impact my brain. I have ADHD, and I don't know if it has anything to do with that. Food has a massive impact on my symptoms, though.

    Re fractal eating: I remember reading that the philosopher J Krishnamurti, recommended to “skip every seventh meal” to one of his students who wanted to lose weight.
    This nicely programs the fractal approach in a way that you won’t forget or duplicate days. And it gives your system six predictable meals.

    Having such a low body fat percentage, and being able to sustain it for so long, is impressive. However, we should ask whether such an aim is even worthwhile, given that for many guys, having such low body fat starts to adversely effect testosterone levels and overall vitality. That seems like a lot to sacrifice for having an aesthetic edge. Granted, for some men, 8 percent does not negatively effect androgen levels or vigor, but for many it does. I think for most guys, staying between 10 to 13 percent, is far more sustainable. That percentage of body fat will not only preserve hormonal levels, maintain performance, and still keep you looking good as long as you amass a good amount of muscle for your frame, but it allows for some dietary discretion so that you can actually enjoy life.

      Yeah, I got to 10% at age 45 (2017) for my wedding. Almost immediately after, the scale started moving upward. Also, I remember being at my in-laws' house around Christmas and everybody else was nice and warm. I was wearing appropriate clothing for that time of year and was freezing. My mother-in-law, a retired nurse, pointed out that it was likely because of how low my bodyfat was. She was spot on. At the end of the day, preserving 12-15% seems more realistic, sutainable and arguably healthier.

    I also think that tracking calories is vital in fighting the hunger craving. I used to assume if I was hungry, I must not have eaten enough, but now I know I've hit my calories, so the hunger is an illusion.

      I've never counted calories at all. I lost 30kg and it changed my life completely. Once I became fat adapted, hunger disappeared for me. It was actually a strange feeling, like it was just gone. I also eat a whole avocado a day and lots of healthy fats = zero hunger. None. Ensuring adequate hydration and electrolyte balance (through your food, NOT soft drinks disguised as electrolyte drinks) will also kill sweet cravings and hunger big time. 2-3L a day, before mid arvo, not after. Adequate sleep and hydration will also will lift your metabolism quite substantially. Always eat fiber (greens etc) first, protein second, carbs always last.

Mostly protein-dense sources like meat, cheese, eggs etc., and with quite a bit of fiber (broccoli, onions etc.). Never in a million years would a younger version of me have thought THAT would be the best way to do it.

    If he were slim in those years then saying it is easy to stay lean would not be the same if some one else was FATTER in the same age brackets.
    Genetics play a HUGE role, as does where you started from.
    Easier to stay lean if you were born lean and kept that leanest throughout the teenage years and beyond.

    The only way to manage body fat is through diet. Your body will always adapt to exercise unless youre doing progressive overload, which becomes impossible with cardio fairly quickly.
    Dont believe me? Well i used to be a postman, and I would walk wt least 10 miles a day and once i walked 32km in a single day, i did this 7 days a week. I lost weight in the first year, but then my body got used to it and I started gaining weight again. There are plenty of overweight posties in the UK and they're all walking about 10miles a day.

    @MrQuadcity 5 місяців тому +1

    **Key Insights from Marcus Filly's Lifestyle and Fitness Practices:**
    1. **Walking as Essential Activity**:
    - Walking regularly is a fundamental and accessible way to maintain a lean physique and manage body composition. It's not just about counting steps but adopting a mentality of continuous movement.
    2. **Intense Weight Training**:
    - Prioritizing intense resistance training is crucial for preserving muscle mass, especially when aiming for a low body fat percentage. This helps prevent muscle catabolism and supports a higher metabolic rate.
    3. **Cardio for Overall Fitness**:
    - Cardiovascular training complements strength training and aids in maintaining a lean body composition. It enhances aerobic capacity, allowing for greater caloric intake while staying lean and supporting overall health.
    4. **High Fiber Diet**:
    - A diet rich in fiber helps with satiety, controlling calorie intake, and maintaining a healthy digestive system. Marcus suggests aiming for significantly more than the recommended daily intake, with fiber-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, oats, beans, and popcorn.
    5. **Mindful Eating and Timing**:
    - Avoiding late-night eating can prevent unnecessary calorie consumption. Establishing a consistent cutoff time for eating can help manage hunger and cravings, especially late in the evening.
    6. **Intermittent Fasting**:
    - Practicing time-restricted eating, particularly by consuming more food earlier in the day and tapering off towards the evening, can align with natural circadian rhythms and support better body composition management.
    7. **Flexibility and Seasonal Adaptation**:
    - It's beneficial to adjust eating habits and meal timing according to seasonal changes and daily activities, allowing for flexibility rather than adhering to a rigid schedule.
    8. **Annual Period of Focused Discipline**:
    - Once a year, dedicating time to push for a leaner physique can help reset habits and make maintaining a healthy body composition more manageable. This period should be clearly defined and not prolonged to avoid negative impacts on mental and physical health.
    9. **Support and Accountability**:
    - Having a support system, such as a coach or close friends and family, is crucial for maintaining discipline and ensuring that fitness and dietary practices remain healthy and sustainable.

    I think the evening eating is an individual thing. I am the most hungry 12-17 and after 20 I don't even want any food. No matter if I overeat during day or undereat. I might be hungry but not feel like eating late anyway.
    I think the time restriction works because it is easier not eat anything than eating in moderation. This way you have to use your willpower only for a limited time.

    I feel like there's something I'm missing with the popcorn hack.
    I purchased a bag of compliments popcorn kernels. On the nutrition label it says that just 1/4 cup or 50g contains 190 calories and 39 grams of carbs. And that small amount of kernels really doesn't make THAT much popcorn.

    you are what you do CONSISTENTLY over a LONG period of time, period. I've always been an 85% guy. I do what I should do about 85% of the time lol. Do I stay fatter than I should? Well yeah. All of my blood parameters are really good, I train 4-5 days a week and work out on the farm on the weekends. So I'm healthy just not lean. Now at 62 I'm trying to bea 90% guy, yep it just takes that much more now to stay reasonably fit. Hormones are a big part of the picture, especially as you get older, and muscle more than anything affects that. So train and train with conviction, just don't go through the motions. Cardio the same way. I switch it up between endurance and HIIT. The very biggest part of the puzzle is DIET. You can't exercise away a bad diet, period!

    I water fast for 2 weeks every 3 months (minerals / vitamins / water only). The great thing is (for me at least) after a few days you stop even being hungry. It is easier for me than trying to eat less calories as then I am always hunger. P.S. as long as you don't cheat a little. ( Apparently ghrelin hormone stops being produced at that point). I remember the first time I switched to Keto was the hardest part. After that my body was used to burning fat? I found switching from Keto to water fasting relatively easy.
