Fat to muscle proportion is important to know for people that don’t intermittent fast to lose weight. All my data is in the good ranges but I’m trying to lose subcutaneous fat plus maintain and build muscle. The shakes in the morning are a good idea. Thanks docs!

@Rob954ever 2 месяца назад

I quit intermittent fasting. I'm almost 58 ( 6"1', 205lbs on average) and have been doing it for a few years. These gentlemen are correct. I wasn't losing weight, but I didn't gain any either. For a month now I have been eating breakfast around 10:30 am ( protein powder, oats, blueberries and almond milk). I have been consuming 190 grams of protein ( my goal weight) per day and limiting fat and sugar ( not eliminating those two things). I workout with Kettlebells and resistance bands. 40 to 45 minutes of HIIT. I'm slowly gaining muscle mass and as of today, I'm at 195 lbs.

Your discussions are informative and motivating, thanks for sharing. Why aren't you considering the metabolic state that the body is in when planning the day's routine. My revelation with calorie restriction through intermittent fasting was the surprise of finding out that my body didn't need the calories to perform well during an activity. In the past if my body was in a burning glucose state (non ketogenic) I would get sluggish and drained during an activity when the glucose burned off. I felt the need to snack to keep going. However, when I'm well into a fast I found my activity (cycling) performance didn't diminish, I felt good, and the hunger went down. It's as if my body needs to be in the fasted state for some time to allow for an adaption of ketosis prior to starting an activity. Perhaps switching into ketosis is easily done at night while sleeping because the energy requirements are low and I'm not conscious of it.

@ryandeffley7652 2 месяца назад

What always made sense to me is keeping a very small calorie deficit from food reduction 200-300 under maintenance. This gets you more macro/micro nutrients. Then to widen the deficit, you use a combo of formal LISS cardio like max 15% incline walking not holding onto the treadmill at least 3x per week, and daily regular walking and NEAT (10-15K steps per day). Consuming more calories and low intensity movement allows you to train harder in the gym and hold on to as much muscle as possible with better recovery. Optimally this is the best strategy for fat loss. The problem is that people tend to be lazy AF and would rather skip any and all cardio with reducing their cals more from food instead.

@JB-uw5yh 2 месяца назад

Ive been training and experimenting with different training and diets for many years. Ive always been on the lean side naturally so fat hasn't been a big issue for me. I dont over analyze myself or get too into the science, unless my Dr tells me to. Ive found that total caloric intake and the quality of protein and food I take in has produced my best results. For me 3 "main meals" breakfast lunch and dinner, (5am, 12pm, 8pm) small to medium portions of high quality food, lower carb, lean proteins, vegetables. Ive also tried the intermittent fasting, I felt fine but I dont notice a big difference? When I was fasting I felt I was spending too much time planning my meals and thinking about them.. And it was difficult to share meals with friends and family. No fun. I take Protein shakes from time to time mixed in. I resistance train 3 days per week, do some manual labor, and have a pretty active lifestyle. Im strong, muscular, very healthy. If I could change things I would add better quality sleep.

@allisonfalin8854 2 месяца назад

Calorie deficit and macros tracking works just fine. It’s helped me and countless others. For someone who can get very low blood sugars just because I have metabolic efficiency and am active, so I eat. Three meals a day and a snack if I’m still hungry and under the calories for the day. Protein is the priority. What I have observed in practice is that the IF folks tend to eat a more processed diet in the name of “I can eat what I want in this window” and they have metabolic syndrome despite their restriction and we also see a bump in gut dysbiosis in the gen pop when they drop calories too low or restrict types of foods *carbs*.

Well, I can’t dispute the expert’s comment that if you force the same calories into a small window you don’t lose fat, but that’s what worked to crush my A1C number and insulin resistance, so happy about that. I have lost 50 lbs in two years doing Keto/IF. Don’t know about the first 25 lbs, but a body scan at my last physical revealed 23 lbs less fat and 2 lbs less lean mass. Of course,I was a bit disappointed that I lost muscle, but my Dr remarked that independent of type of diet, most people lose more lean mass while losing 25 lbs. I’m actually a bit under my ideal wgt, but while staying in a slightly less strict Keto regime and eating about 350 cals in the am that’s very low carb, I have now lost an additional 1.7% of my body fat while adding 1.9% lean mass since mid-Jan. I also added 4 sessions of resistance training to what previously was just heavy Zone 2 cardio. My aim now is to gain muscle while staying under 15% body fat.

@nichtsistkostenlos6565 2 месяца назад

"I can’t dispute the expert’s comment that if you force the same calories into a small window you don’t lose fat, but that’s what worked to crush my A1C number and insulin resistance" Whether this worked for you or not, there have been quite a few studies on this, and this does not work for most people absent any other change. There is no evidence that for most people intermittent fasting alone affects A1C or insulin resistance at all absent activity change or overall caloric deficit. So, just intermittent fasting and maintaining the same caloric intake is not good advice for anyone if they're looking to impact their A1C or insulin resistance positively.

Those are not the only options for modifying one's food intake ("those" being time-restricted feeding, or precisely measuring macros, or some named "diet" like keto). Instead, one can swap out stuff one shouldn't be eating, like cookies or donuts, for the protein that one was not eating before, or swapping veggies for chips and fries, or not pouring a lot of fatty dressing on one's "healthy" salad. Those healthier food choices will likely end up as lower total calories. This should not be regarded as a temporary "diet", but a lifestyle change.

The digestive system is different, you cant eat all day like the heart beats every second...

@oolala53 2 месяца назад

It’s interesting that you talk about that window because Dr. Valter Longo, who was a very early researcher on the benefits of fasting and caloric restriction on very small lifeforms, but who has continued to study it much more broadly, said that there are eventual problems with just about every daily eating window of fewer than 12 hours. he is however a big proponent of periodic fasting or modified fasting, meaning about 4 to 5 days at a time and not more frequently than once a month and that only for obese people. But that’s less important than 12 hour overnight fast.

@deathspank9573 Месяц назад

2:16 described me at the beginning of the year. I was very overweight at 120 kg, 6ft 1. I didn't have much muscle mass, especially on my legs due to a genetic muscle wasting issue that primarily messes with your lower legs. I went on a roughly 5 and half months of heavy calorie restriction. I was losing about 1kg or more a week, so that means i was running on average at a 1000 calorie a day deficit. For a while, i was having a heavy protein based low calorie breakfast, and basically meat and broccoli or cauliflower at night. That was it. After a while i was finding that i had to fast a few days a week to maintain the rate of weight loss, and i think i burn't a fair chunk of muscle that i couldn't afford to lose. I lost a lot of strength, but i managed to drop 30kgs. I still have at least 10kgs more of fat to lose, but i am at a point where i realise i cannot continue losing muscle. Right now i have increased my eating, i have been focusing on weight training. My plan is to just monitor my weight closely, and adjust food up or down depending on the scale over the course of a week. While i did lose muscle mass, i am still very pleased with the weight loss. It has made a tremendous improvement to my appearance. I regularly get compliments that i look 10 years younger. I am committed to the goal of getting lean, and then getting jacked at least once in my life. I am learning on the job how to do it, i just need to be more patient.

@Snerdles 3 месяца назад

Personally, when I'm trying to lose a little weight I like to do a single day (36 hour) fast each week and otherwise eat at a slight surplus. As an exanple, if someone is on a 2000 calorie maintenance diet then shoot for 2100 a day and don't eat one day. This drops your weekly calories by 10%, but allows you continue to buld muscle through the week. I find it far easier to stuck to one day and otherwise eat mostly normally. It has been working surprisingly well for me.

@RandomRandoBro 2 месяца назад

Caloric restriction does not work after a certain point. Your base metabolic rate is not static. You will lose weight until your body adjusts and finds a new base metabolic rate at which point weight loss stops. So you cut calories even further. You start losing weight again, but eventually, you will stop losing weight again because you're metabolic rate will adjust again. Now you have lowered your base metabolic rate to such a point that if you ever go back to eating normal again, you will pack the pounds back on. This is why people cannot keep the weight off by dieting.

You do not need more protein when cutting calories. What you need is to stop training with so much volume and frequency and let your body recover. When you are in a calorie deficit, all you need to do to preserve your muscle mass, is do just enough to stimulate growth in the muscle and then rest. In my experience, it is much better to take more rest in between workouts than to add absurd amounts of protein for recovery purposes. Leave your protein around .6 to .7 of your body weight and increase your carbohydrates. Plus, Why does a 200 lb person that is fat, require 175 to 200+ grams of protein per day when he is 30 to 40% body fat? Protein helps the muscle, not the fat. Just my take.

One issue about timing is just that there is evidence that nocturnal HGH is suppressed if insulin is high in the early hours of sleep, maybe 10:00-2:00 or earlier if you go to be earlier. In fact, just going to sleep after 10:00 lowers HGH because it elevates cortisol in the first few hours of sleep and cortisol forces insulin up. Insulin directly counter regulates HGH. That doesn't mean no carbs in the evening, but putting down a lot of calories after 8:00 pm almost certainly affects HGH. Milk protein also stimulates insulin fairly strongly. Leucine is more insulinogenic than glucose. Also, eating carbs around periods of activity prevents hypersecretion of insulin and reduces total daily insulin exposure. That all being said, the main reason for people who know what they are eating and what they are burning from being successful is forcing cortisol and Uric acid higher by exercising more and eating less. For 6 month weight loss, 500 net calorie deficits have been shown to result in more end point fat loss than 1000 net calorie deficit attempts. There is not twice as much loss on 1000 as 500, and there at least all of the difference is gained back in the 3 months after calorie restriction. Cortisol from very low calories and lots of exercise kills sleep and causes trigger eating of foods that raise cortisol and dopamine which leads to diet depression.

As someone who lost more than 40kgs being insulin resistant I can tell from experience, half of that calorie counting and protein shake stuff either don't work or do more harm than good. I was 150kg at my worst days and my diabetologist forbade me from resistance training because it was giving me too much cortisol spikes which translates to insulin spikes. I started losing weight after STOPPING weightlifting and came back to the gym after losing 30kgs. No point in crying over lost muscle when you're morbidly obese and need to lose this garbage first in order not to die in a year. Not everything Attia says is good for everyone.

the fact is, if you are fasting 19 hours a day, your attempt ar an anti-catabolic protein interruption is going to result in some degree of gluconeogenesis because your body does not know you're eating later, all it has are the various hormonal and electrochemical signals it is getting. that doesn't make this a bad idea; it is much better than intermittent fasting without protein sparing modification. but even better would be not intermittent fasting! let your body's preference for glycolytic activity be satisfied by available sources of glucose and carbohydrate (all the more so near a bout of serious anaerobic exercise) and focus on keeping those from reaching an unnecessary energy surplus. it has always been about portion control, not clever timing hacks, with the slight exceptions of optimization for more protein synthesis and more energy demands around periods of exercise (and, possibly, upon waking, and possibly, with some thin evidence, before sleeping if maximizing the duration of positive nitrogen balance is important to you, which is probably a dubious priority but maybe it matters to bodybuilders at the margins). The only good reasons to consider IF that are supported by good recent science are behavioral - if compliance with other caloric restriction is just too hard. Just about every single anecdotal report of magical effects on insulin sensitivity or whatever fails to rule out the impact of mere caloric restriction, body fat loss, lower carbohydrate or other shifts in macronutrient profiles, or other lifestyle changes. there was a brief period where some studies seemed to show promise, but science did what science does - it sought more data and got it , and it does not make sense to still be hyped about what was not replicated in subsequent literature over a decade and a half. Why not go back to banting between circus strongman lifts and mustache waxing if we live in the scientific past ?

@jakubchrobry3701 3 месяца назад

You would think it might start to sink in: resistance training (while getting enough calories) is the primary driver of maintaining or gaining muscle, not getting extreme amounts of protein (~2.2 g/kg). Luc van Loon essentially says it here (7:18). This is especially more important for older people (>50). But, of course, Peter Attia will keep pushing the consumption of extreme amounts of protein while providing little evidence of the health benefits. We know people don't need this much protein to protect against sarcopenia. Please provide the evidence of any health benefits for 2.2 g/kg of protein in the gen pop (sarcopenia and satiety don't count). Luc van Loon's research from 2011 showed that athletes need 1.3 to 1.8 g/kg to MAXIMIZE muscle protein synthesis; and more experienced athletes need less.

@tommyrq180 3 месяца назад

You are cherry picking. Attia advocates cardio, resistance training, and balance training. Plus he interviewed this speaker who could not be more clear about activity plus protein. Don’t try to pull yourself up by tearing someone down, especially someone as dedicated to longevity art and science as Attia. Read his book _Outlive_ where he explains his research and practice in greater detail.

@jakubchrobry3701 3 месяца назад

@@tommyrq180 I never said Dr. Attia doesn't advocate for resistance training. I also never said protein is not important. The question is how much protein. I also read Outlive. There's no studies answering my question from his book. Please provide a study showing that you need 2.2 g/kg of protein for optimal health and longevity. As I said before, you do not need this much protein to build muscle. All the evidence confirms this. All I am is a 60 y.o. male wanting to stay healthy for the longest amount of time. This includes being able to squat 315 lbs, deadlift 405 lbs, and bench 255 lbs when I'm 70 years old. I'll set my strength goals at that time for age 80. What's wrong with wanting to know the best way to accomplish this? Right now I get about 1.6 g/kg of protein and have had no problem gaining strength and muscle. It would be difficult for me to reduce my protein, but there's also a lot of evidence claiming I should. Why do you think Bryan Johnson chose a low protein diet? He resistance trains and knows muscle is important for aging.

@tommyrq180 3 месяца назад

@@jakubchrobry3701 In this very podcast, Attia says he recommends for his patients 1.6 and up to 2.0 g/kg, the latter being for those who do serious resistance training. So he’s basically around 1.6-1.8, which van Loon also agrees with. BUT, and this is where you’re off the rails, EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT. You like to brag about your weight lifting objectives with no way to prove it. This is YT. All kinds of cranks here. If you are as serious as you suggest, then you’ve done the experimentation on yourself to know what works. You are eating about what Attia recommends and whining about it! Then you bring up ONE other person as if it’s evidence for what you or anyone else should do. Listen, I’ve been an athlete and coach for decades and I’ve seen a lot of athletes come and go. Each one was different, very different. We tried out certain things to see if they worked. If 1.6 works for you then quit whining. Have you even tried 2.2?!? If not, then you should shut your yap. And studies will never tell us how to train. They just cannot control for all the variables. Science is important but training is art. Mainly it’s the art of trial and error measured by competition. In endurance sports, for example, “science” told us that you couldn’t process more than 60g of sugar an hour while competing. Today athletes (I’m one) process and benefit from 120 g/hour during high-level competition and athletes found that out through trial and error, not studies. If you want to be healthy, find out what works for you and stop trying to push your stuff on everyone else as if you know something. I guarantee you Attia has people who benefit from high levels of the right kinds of protein. But the center of mass for his patients is, as he said with his own mouth in this very video, 1.6-1.8 g/kg. So stop with your YT histrionics and go back to the weight room and do some alleged 1RM deadlifts until something pops. Then you’ll know you went too far…

@jakubchrobry3701 2 месяца назад

@@tommyrq180 You completely missed my point. Little of what you wrote addresses what I wrote. I'm interested in the amount of protein that is optimal for longevity and health. This is what Dr. Attia's book is about. Dr. Attia's book is not about building the max amount of muscle for young bodybuilders or athletes. That seems to be your concern, not mine. Dr. Attia seems to be equating max muscle with optimal health and longevity. People can even gain muscle with the RDA of 0.8 g/kg if they lift weights and get enough calories, but I'm not claiming that is optimal. Peter Attia claims in his book that 2.2 g/kg is "a good place to start" for the "ideal amount" of protein; and 1.6 g/kg is the "minimum." What he said in this video is still consistent with this. The reason I brought up athletes is because research show athletes (bodybuilders) don't even need this much. This might be the optimal amount for MAXIMIZING muscle building, not the OPTIMAL amount for longevity and health. The research hasn't changed since Luc van Loon's 2011 paper for MAXIMIZING muscle. Other muscle researchers, such as Brad Schoenfeld, have shown that there is minimal extra benefit over 1.6 g/kg. I simply brought up my goals to show that strength is important to me. Probably 95% of seniors don't want that much strength, they want to be healthy and prevent sarcopenia, not compete in bodybuilding. There is little (if not zero) evidence that 2.2 g/kg is the "ideal amount" for longevity. No, I can not EXPERIMENT on myself. My concern is longevity and preventing disease. It takes decades to know the results. Why? Because diseases like atherosclerosis and cancer take decades to develop; and longevity is difficult to track. How do I know how fast I'm aging? Am I supposed to eat 2.2 g/kg/day for the next decade to find out that's too much? Oops. Then it's too late. You can't reverse the clock. No, I do not want to be eating 1.6 g/kg of protein as I am now if it's not healthy as a lot of research shows. I would rather bring that down to 1.2 g/kg or lower. And I don't think I'll have problems with muscle as long as I continue to train, because that's what the research shows. And yes, I've eaten more than 2.2 g/kg. No difference. Training and and being in calorie surplus is much more important. See the Nick Burd's amino acid isotope research. Your body becomes more efficient. Too much protein means the amino acids are just converted to glucose.

In both cases, it means consuming ZERO CALORIE. Is 200 calories the same as 0? How educated are you? Physiologically, when consuming 0 calories, insulin is not triggered to release, and thus allows a host of benefits of fasting. When consuming 200 calories or whatever non-zero amount of protein, especially in isolation from fat as nature intended in whole foods, you trigger insulin to a higher degree than protein consumed with fat.

Fasting is caloric restriction. That's why it works. Also, "starvation mode" is nonsense. Your body is constantly upregulating and downregulating your metabolism based on recent consumption. If you fast, your body will downregulate your metabolism slightly, just like any other type of caloric restriction.
