100% you can eat your daily calories at any point of the day without any impact on your
actual fat loss.
Meaning if you want to eat 80% of your daily calories at night right before bed, you want
to have the rest of the 20% all throughout the day that's fine!
If you want to have two thirds of your calories right in the morning for breakfast and have
the rest of the third all throughout the rest of the day that's fine.
As long as you're eating the same amount of daily calories.
Provided of course that you're also eating in a deficit and if you don't know how to
set yourself up for a deficit yet you should look up my video "how to set up your cut".
A lot of people, including myself, while dieting like to fast throughout the day so they can
save all of the calories for a small time window right before bed that you can eat so
you get a lot more full, and this is called intermittent fasting.
Now while studies out there are very shaky in actually proving that intermittent fasting
actually increases the amount of fat loss that you're getting there are no studies that prove
that it slows down the fat loss that you're doing.
I'll leave a few links under the video for case studies that have been done on intermittent
fasting so you kind of see how shaky and inaccurate the results really are but I've been eating
I.F. intermittent fasting when in dieting phases when I'm trying to lose fat for years
now and I've literally never seen a difference in fat loss between when I wasn't using IF
to lose fat and when I was using intermittent fasting to lose weight, I've seen the exact
same results with tenfold the convenience.
Ultimately my point of this video is to let you know that you can eat food whenever you
want to throughout the day without any implication on your actual fat loss goals and progression.
Seriously, it doesn't matter.
No more of the "no carbs after 10 PM" no more of then "make sure you get 8 mini meals throughout
the day so that you can trigger and fire up your metabolism and keep it stoked" none of
that is applicable and none of that is true, none of that is science.
The great thing about this information is that you can eat whenever is convenient for
you, if you have a hectic ass schedule, if you're always traveling or whatever, it doesn't
matter for you to make sure that you're getting breakfast lunch mini-lunch mini-dinner dinner
in.
You can just EAT whenever is convenient for you, as long as you're getting the same amount
of calories per day in.
The only suggestion I do have for you, if you are trying to lose weight and you're trying
to implement this idea of eating whenever you want to, try to come up with a smart strategy
for doing this because if you regularly have breakfast every morning and then you skip
breakfast one morning, by the time you get to lunch time you're going to be starving.
You're going to be so freaking hungry and so you have to be smart about this because
if you go into lunch and you start eating you're going to be triggered, you're going
to be really really excited about eating and sometimes people tend to overeat when they
do allow themselves to eat and that pretty much just throws off your whole idea of losing
fat so when you do implement this make sure you're smart and you know, "ok, I skipped
a meal so I should be very careful to eat the right amount of food for my next meal".
One of the questions that you've probably thought of is, "Do I implement intermittent
fasting?"
Where I eat everything in that 4 hour window before bed all throughout the year, and should
you?
And is it safe for you to do that?
It's totally safe for you to it, it's totally fine for you to do it if it's convenient for
you.
For me personally, when I'm bulking when I'm not trying to lose weight I like to have a
big fruit shake in the morning.
Because it just, it kind of gives me mental clarity, it gives me a little bit of energy
and focus for the work that I'm about to do.
But when I'm in a dieting phase and I'm trying to lose fat, I just don't eat from the minute
I get up from the minute I get up all the way until about 5 or 6 pm and yes, I'll get
a workout in, I'll get my cardio in all that stuff.
I do it all while fasted, no problem.
And then at 5 6 o clock area I break my fast and I have all of my calories and I get to
bed around 10 to 11 pm so there's about a 4 or 5 hour span of eating.
The reason I do this, and this is not necessarily the BEST way to do it, it's not the way you
need to do it just the way I do it for my convenience time schedule is that it allows
me to go to bed full.
Satiated, feeling like I have a big belly full of food and that's the only way I can
go to bed.
I cannot go to bed if I have any sort of hunger pain in my stomach, I just concentrate on
it and I stay up all night.
So for me personally, eating all of these calories at the end of the night is so much
easier for me to handle because I'll go to bed super happy and then when I'm dealing
with hunger it's all throughout the day time where I'm already super busy, I'm running
around doing a bunch of stuff, think about a bunch of things so it's very easy for me
to kind of lose track of time and forget about the whole hunger situation.
And then all of a sudden its 4 or 5 o clock and I'm like, "oh wow, I get to eat in about
half an hour I should start cooking!"
That's all the video is, you can eat whenever you want to, the purpose of this video is
to clarify a lot of questions I've gotten on snapchat which you guys can add me on Brian
Turner.
B, R, I, A, N, T, U, R, N, E, R where people ask me dude does it matter if I have breakfast
does it matter if I have, you know, food after a certain time at night before I go to bed.
None of that stuff matters and legitimately your life will be so much easier not thinking
about all these mini meals and trying to implement things that will boost your metabolism or
whatever.
Just concentrate on what's convenient for you and what will be the easiest for you to
adhere to your daily deficit of calories so that you can continue to lose weight over
time in a consistent and healthy way.
Ok, I tried to keep this video short because I tend to ramble on if you guys subscribe
to the channel, you probably know that.
So hopefully we'll find out once I edit this down, let me know if it was short enough,
if you wanted a little bit more explanation, if you want a little bit more rambling whatever
it is because I'm doing that right now!
