Hey all, saw this got tagged as a reply to one of my articles. Just thought I'd drop by real quick. I'll only post this once, as my mind is in my directions right now so feel free to email me if you have any questions about my philosophy and ideas. My email is easily found on my website
anthony.mychal and then do the gmail thang.
As for whether or not I'm an "expert," I suppose I could get into a philosophical discussion on what expertise actually is. But, the gist of it: no. I'm no expert.
I simply aggregated most of the common fasting methods out there and experimented with them. I don't work in a lab (hint: neither do any of the other "experts" mentioned). My "ethos" is all about the chaotic nature of the body ( basic biology) and how times of feasting and fasting should be a part of life -- and then how to layer that on top of training to best build muscle and without getting fat. In other words, how to use chaos to your advantage.
So it's a mixture of general intermittent fasting, longer duration fasting, and carb cycling -- all very "random," if you will, and using deprivation of nutrients at times to rebound your body's use of them in the future...all coinciding with training in order to make sure you don't fry your recovery capacity, and yet give your body what it needs when it needs it.
As for guru's, Ori Hofmekler is the man that pioneered intermittent fasting. To anyone interested in really learning, I suggest reading his book, Maximum Muscle, Minimum Fat first.
Again, if you have any reply, email me. I won't be checking back.
