#313: Diets For Crazy Schedules

July 23, 2026 · 1 h 16 min

Show notes

Brad, Brian, and Alberto discuss the details that actually matter for fat loss, so you can create an eating routine that works well for you and your schedule. How many times per day do the coaches recommend eating? Does the number of times you eat per day influence your metabolic rate? Do you have to distribute your protein evenly throughout the day? What are the coaches’ thoughts on and what is the effectiveness of intermittent fasting? What are 48-hour feeding windows and how can you use them? What advice do the coaches have around pre workout nutrition? What nutritional details matter more when you’re super lean? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
