Sorry, this is the real way I get to 5% Bodyfat

  Hi {NAME} Sorry about that mistake earlier... this is the real thing. If I wanted to get to 5% bodyfat by summer, there’s a few big levers that I would pull. And boy, do they work. FULL DISCLAIMER : This is intense stuff, I don’t recommend that everyone does this. This is mainly my opinion, there’s not much research here, please proceed with caution if you decide to do this. PSMF (Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting) This is the biggest lever that you can pull if you want to get to 5% as quickly as Possible. PSMF is where you drastically lower fat intake to around 20 grams and remove all carbohydrate intake besides veggies. You eat around 1 gram of protein per lbs of body weight in the form of ground beef and lean meats. You basically rip away carbs and fats, your body only has protein to work with and no choice but to pull from fat stores. But when I do this, I also sip on green tea pretty much the entire day. The evidence on green tea and fat loss is quite strong (very strong, actually). I find that when I do this protocol (which is listed below) I just get more out of my energy levels and fat loss if I am sipping on high quality tea. I use a ["fasting tea"]( because IMO, this is a form of fasting (just with eating protein during it). [Here’s a link to the Fasting Tea]( that I use, it’s from Pique Tea - also for a whopping 20% off and a free gift: This stuff is cold-extracted so it is not denatured and ruined. It’s triple toxin screened so you’re not dealing with heavy metals, etc. It really is one of a kind. I trust Dr. Jason Fung, and he’s the one that really got this Tea off the ground to begin with. So if you’re wanting to get the maximum benefit out of my fat loss strategy, I would highly recommend trying it: [20% Off Pique Fasting Tea Here]( This is roughly what that ends up looking like for me : 940 calories 180g protein 25g carbs 20g fat You’re probably thinking, this guy is out of his mind. Bear with me. This is a 10-14 day diet before metabolic slowdown occurs. This is a sprint, not a Marathon. Keep your protein intake high during the day and add the fats at the end of the day. This way, your body has the best chance of tapping into fat stores while also leveraging the thermogenic effect that comes with consuming protein. Vegetables are fair game at any time, it’d be smart though to save these for the end of the day. You’ll be surprised, with all the protein from lean meats, you’ll stay pretty darn Satiated. As for supplements, I like to add a multivitamin, a liver capsule (for more vitamin A, etc), and I reduce creatine intake to 3 grams so that I’m not getting that slight hint of water retention. Training Protocol Resistance training becomes critical for muscle retention. If you don’t use it, you’ll lose it. The #1 stimulus for maintaining muscle is resistance training. #2 is Protein, #3 is calories. All we’re doing is removing calories from the equation. You will not lose muscle if you do this (in the short term). I would also completely separate resistance training from cardio. All focus would be on my resistance training sessions. I would make sure I’m getting maximum motor unit recruitment and the most muscle preservation that I Can. Cardio would become very low intensity. I would sacrifice Vo2 Max, aerobic threshold and even my anaerobic threshold and power. You read that right. I would sacrifice performance for body composition. Other Things I Would Do: I would have [Pique Green Tea]( before workouts, and again during/after workouts. Green Tea is so awesome when doing a diet like this. It’ll help with muscle preservation as well. The catechins have some evidence in doing so. I would NOT do any cheat meals. Let’s say I’m doing PSMF for three weeks. My metabolism will inevitably slow down. This means a cheat meal will have a worse impact than normal because my metabolism is slower, which means I’ll put on more weight as a result. Instead, I take three days out of the week and add in a little treat at the end of the day, something around 150 calories. Doesn’t have to be much, and it’ll keep you Going. Lastly, I’ll have a small surplus period from time to time. During these periods of more calories, I move as much as I can. My metabolism is slower and so is NEAT, so I make sure I’m moving as much as possible. I personally do this style of diet for 10-14 days, or I’ll do one week on and one week off, repeating until I get to 5%. This works, but please be careful.
