The Four Hour Body

[John Alighieri]

I jumped on Tim's book straight from the start and I've been using his slow carb diet and surprisingly made a HUGE difference during training! I feel way more energetic and I can train to higher intensity without feeling like shit!
It makes you realize that your body is like a car. Fill your body with shitty food and you might still reach your destination but it's gonna be a bumpy ride, fill it with jet fuel and you'll be there in no time!

It sucks balls for the first 2 weeks due to bread/rice withdrawals hahaha
It's hard to feel satisfied after a meal but damn Saturday is the best day ever now aka "sugar induced coma day" lol


I survive on my homemade version of burrito instead of using usual wraps I scramble some eggs and cook it like a giant pancake and fill it with lettuce, beans, chicken/beef, homemade guacamole, homemade salsa.

That sounds great, John, thanks! Today's my first day of adopting the slow carb diet, and I plan on training tonight.

Replacing tortillas with an omelet-like creation is brilliant and sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing!

Anytime sir!
That's what works for me!
If you're big on salt I'd recommend you to switch to garlic powder.
I eat a lot of alpha sprouts too.

I smash salads too. Lettuce, alpha sprouts, balsamic vinegar, chicken/beef chunks, peppers (green, red, yellow) kidney beans ( yeah I know weird but it tastes awesome! Lol) I usually eat salads as "snacks"

I've eaten as little as 30g of carbs in a day, and I felt fantastic. I really had to make sure that I was taking in enough fats to compensate, though, otherwise I would feel very low-energy. Lots of peanut butter, brazil nuts, olive oil, avocado, coconut, etc.

Anyone heard of the Raw Meat diet?

Yeah, I think your mother invented it.


OHHHHHHHHHHH

I got the book, started the diet 2 days ago. I did 3mo of P90x. If i can survive the strict intake of that this should be a breeze. Protein+veggies+legumes instead of white starch. And I get to have Delicious Pizza and Beer on the weekend. We will see what the results are.
