Fasting:

I use 20-4 Intermittent Fasting windows but I try to narrow this down as much as possible. I usually eat from 6pm-9pm (3 hours) and fast for the rest of the day (21 hours).

Morning:

  • 24oz water
  • Black 1/2 decaf iced coffee (sip throughout the day before 3pm)
  • Thesis Nootropics. I’ll choose a different formula based on what I do that day. My favorite ones right now are Clarity and Motivation.

Afternoon:

  • I’ll drink a lot of water anytime I get a slight feeling of hunger.

Post-Strength Training Workout (Break Fasting):

Dinner (Eat Before 9pm):

  • I prep all my food in the beginning of the week by vacuum sealing my protein of choice and then cooking it sous vide to save time. I try to get in a total of 140 grams of protein and use MyFitnessPal to track how much I’m eating.
  • Protein (140 grams)
