It’s physiologically impossible to lose fat and gain muscle at the same moment in
time. You can't gain muscle in a calorie deficit and you can't lose fat in a calorie surplus,
it's that simple.

There are several situations where gaining large amounts of muscle and losing
large amounts of fat can occur at the same time:

1) When steroids and/or fat burning drugs are used.

2) In beginners, whose bodies are extremely responsive to exercise (some of the
rapid muscle and strength gains in beginners can be attributed to neurological
adaptations).

3) In advanced trainees after a long layoff (the muscle gain can be attributed to
"muscle memory” i.e., they are not gaining new muscle, they are simply regaining
what they previously lost).

4) In genetic superiors.

The most efficient method of improving body composition is to put 100% focus
on your single most important goal; losing fat or gaining muscle – one or the other. If you
have above average amounts of body fat, then your number one goal should be to focus
on losing fat first. Then, once the fat is off, you can re-write your goals and work on
gaining muscle while maintaining your new, lower body fat level.

Every time you cut calories below your maintenance level, it’s never long before
your body recognizes the deficit and adjusts your fat burning thermostat so fewer calories
are burned. The larger the drop in calories and the longer the drop is maintained, the
bigger the drop will be in metabolism.

Your body is an amazing machine that is remarkably adaptable to any situation or
environment. Your body likes to stay in a state of equilibrium and will always fight your
efforts to change.

Fortunately, there is a way you can “trick” your body into keeping your metabolic
rate up while you’re dieting for fat loss – It’s called the zig zag method and it’s without
question the most powerful fat burning technique ever developed

The zig zag calorie rotation method for maximum fat loss: the most effective
nutritional technique for fat loss ever developed!

You must have a deficit to lose fat, but what you don’t want is a large deficit for a long period of time. The way to “outsmart” your body’s starvation response is to avoid prolonged calorie deficits. You simply drop into a calorie deficit for a brief period of three days, then – before your body has a chance to decrease your metabolic rate– you raise your calories back up to maintenance level (or even above maintenance) for one to three days. You then repeat this process until you reach your desired body fat percentage. Some bodybuilders zig zag their calories completely at random and this seems to be effective for them. Other people use low, medium and high days in a pyramid fashion. My research, based on personal coaching programs with over 600 clients and on 14 years of competitive bodybuilding experience, has shown conclusively that the zig zag method works best in three day cycles. When your calories are kept in a large deficit more than three days, that’s when your metabolic rate starts to dip. By raising your calories every fourth day, you spike your metabolism and the starvation mode never fully kicks in.

buna eva,

multam de articole..faine. culmea e ca le stiam dar uite ca citind iti reimprospatezi memoria si ajuta.
Imi place si mi eideea fara carne. Nu sunt chiar mare amatoare de carne, singurul lucru..e usor de pregatit.
Am sa incerc sa vad..

nici eu nu mai merg pe monti de multa vreme dar incerc sa respect unele principii. In general incerc sa mananc din toate (ce e healthy) dar cu masura. Am re-descoperit salata de bulgur..e asa de buna si consistenta. Imi mai place si cea de quinoua.
Chiar am sa fiu mai atenta cu consumul de carne.

te pup si somn usor

The zig zag method is without question, the most effective method of fat loss ever developed. It is also one of the best-kept secrets of the world’s best natural bodybuilders and fitness models. Bodybuilders frequently use this method prior to competitions to help strip their bodies of all visible fat while maintaining their lean body mass. This method is also effective for breaking plateaus, accelerating slow fat loss, maintaining lean body mass and preventing sluggish metabolisms from slowing down further.

azi am plecat de la sala la ora inchiderii, adica 22 (fara un sfert) si sala, e cu r in cu r cu mcdonalds.. lipite (ce ironie !!) cand eu plecam de la sala.. era ditai coada la mcdrive.. dumnezeule! la 10 noaptea, mcdrive! pana cumpara, pana conduc inapoi acasa.. 10,30! dar se mai intampla si pe la case mai mari............................................

da eva, si eu tot din acelasi motiv am renuntat. Cand mi se spune ca nu am voie..fac exact pe dos!! Deci..Nana ne-a zis azi: "dieta, dieta, dieta"..well, fix in niste sushi m-am infipt in seara asta ca deh..a fost ziua de nume a fetei mele si a vrut la sushi...(the best sushi in vancouver!!)..si am incheiat cu vreo 4 migdale tavalite in ciocolata..cica..neagra..da tot ciocolata!
Incerc si eu sa pierd in greutate asa cum pot..incercand sa aplic metode care sa-mi formeze stilul de viata sanatos..
Pentru inceput chiar ar fi grozava ideea asta cu nemancat carne. Am sa incerc..ce zici, incerci si tu? sa vedem cum merge..

metoda zig-zag mie mi se pare geniala... asa invatasem si eu prin scoli, ca organismul se adapteaza usor la 'vremuri grele' (el nefacand diferenta intre dieta si razboi).. dar daca alternezi nu se prinde, sau se prinde greu..
eu am sa incerc.. dar stau prost cu numaratul caloriilor. am sa apreciez asa, la mancat, la ochi sa vedem ce iese.
despre carne, o evit si eu cat pot.. si daca mananc, bag numai peste si oua .. carne alba fff rar si rosie nicio sansa.. insa am acasa o cutie de praf proteic.. daca eviti carnea si faci sport TREBUIE sa ti iei praf dinala proteic si iti pui de ex fie in purici fie in cacaua aia de la ora 5 (proteinele mele sunt dulci si cu aroma de alune - merg la dulciuri)
incearca si vezi cum iti merge..
