I've done the same approach for years, interesting. Just 2 big meals a day, initially did it just because it's convenient/time efficient and never really changed it haha.
I remember Kirill Sarychev stating he eats two times a day as well. I found eating two times a day beneficial for me also, it was less taxing on my body and I felt a lot healthier.
If you keep all the food within a 12 hr window as well its like a very light version on intermittent fasting. I feel far better as well - less insulin spikes and better health long term
@@LairdRoss Hey mate, is it possible if you could do a video on those who want to lower down body fat? I'm kind of confused on how to base out my training and macros whilst cutting? Many thanks!
I like this diet. People also don't give enough credit to red meat for its nutrient density. Not a good idea to go cold turkey vegetarian/vegan without considering nutrient intake. How much protein do you reckon you consume on average, per day?
Red meat is great. I would sit at close to 200 grams a day most of the time. I am 112kg so that is very reasonable and on the lower end when it comes to strength athletes. For me since the volume isn't excessive I found its a good. And yes eliminating red meat isn't wise unless you have a done a full and calculates breakdown of your diet
@@LairdRoss Your too Humble, looks pretty good to me. Better than a Lot of the Restaurants here. Also your Garage Gym is really Creative too, you've got a Lot of Talents. Well done ! Jim Canada
Do you do a bit of unintentional intermittent fasting? I work 4p-12 and try to only eat when I’m working, but I eat a lot of smaller meals instead of big meals
@@LairdRoss Would you say, for the young guys (early 20s myself) who look up to you that what youve achieved is naturally achievable? Or maybe something like The Barbarian Overlord? Or is that unrealistic 😅 Im not talking about aesthetics (dont rly care about that) but rather about strength
What the Barbarian Overlord has built is definitely achievable natty and a fair bit more. I got to 100kg in my early 20s and was natty and very strong - 195kg bench in comp and 315kg squat. I stayed natty for ages and the lifts still went up and so did the bodyweight but I can't remember what I got too. Now training natty my lifts still very slow improve, just very slow but I am happy with what I have built
@@LairdRoss Thx for the reply man! You really are an inspiration to myself and im sure many other young lads. Not just your lifting and strength but also the wholesomeness/happiness with regards to the family you and your wife have created. Things csn sometimes appear a bit bleak in this modern age
Glad you get a lot out of it. And yes I know what you mean mate - life can be very up and down at the moment. I also have FB page "Garage Gym - Laird Ross" you will probably like the content on that as well
