Backdoor Man

The latest craze in fat-loss programming is carb backloading. The idea is to eat normally on non-training days ( conditioning days) and refrain from consuming carbs until the peri- and post-workout periods on training days ( resistance training((RT)) days).

More on the science in an upcoming post, but suffice it to say many people have gotten excellent results in the short-term.

Assuming a 3X/week RT regimen, one would follow this:

Monday         Conditioning
Tuesday         Training ( back load)
Wednesday    Conditioning
Thursday       Training (back load)
Friday            Conditioning
Saturday        Training (back load)


Backload Days

Meal 1 Protein + Fat + Caffeine

Meal 2 Whey Shake

Meal 3 Protein + MCT + nuts

Meal 4 Peri-workout nutrition with carbs

Meal 5 Protein + nuts

Meal 6 Protein + Fat + Carbs

(Protein+ 1gm/1 lb. bodyweight)

Try this for 6-8 weeks and assess fat loss.
