Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The truth is that there is no one true diet - there are no shortcuts to the body you want. The only way to achieve any result is through a combination of training, healthy eating, and supplementation. #2 The first law of thermodynamics is that energy balance, which is the relationship between the energy you feed your body and the energy it expends, is the basic mechanism that regulates fat storage and reduction. #3 The most important aspect of the diet pyramid is macronutrient balance, and this is second in importance to energy balance.
In order to gain or lose weight, you have to watch your calorie intake, but in order to optimize your body composition, you must pay attention to your protein intake. #4 What is too little protein. If you are relatively lean and aren't dieting, you should set your protein intake at 0. 8 to 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day. If you are overweight or obese, your first priority should be fat loss, and your protein intake should be set at 1 to 1.
2 grams per pound of lean mass per day.
