    I am the kind of person that believes in the importance of a proper nutrition. For me this is really the key to achieve results if you want a shredded aesthetic physique. I am not a big fan of bulking/cutting cycles during the year, instead I prefer to stay lean all year round so that it's easier to just cut a little bit in few weeks if I need it for a shoot.

    I am a big fan of "intermittent fasting".
    I have been following this kind of approach for the last five years having amazing results. At first I started following the guidelines of the IF-expert, Martin Berkhan. In his blog (leangains) there are lots of useful informations and scientific explanations behind the theory of Intermittent Fasting. In short it does consist in fasting all day and into eating all your calories at evening/night in a meal.

    Right now, after years of tests and changes, I developed a personal approach but before explaining it I also want to mention another important point of my diet that really helped me: I have been substituted all the protein sources with an amazing supplement called Humapro. This product is almost calories free but at the same time it delivers in just one scoop the equal amount of 100% absorbed 25 gr of proteins. Thanks to that it has been possible for me to take off all the proteins from my calories in terms of macros and add more carbs and fats to the night meal. Also, since Humapro is almost calories free and has the property of supporting stable blood glucose levels, I decided to take my "virtual protein intake" during the day without the risk of decreasing the effectiveness of the fast.

    Saying that my Intermittent Fasting protocol looks like this:

    - 8:00 am 1 scoop of Humapro
    - 12:00 am 1 scoop of Humapro
    - 4:00 pm 1 scoop of Humapro
    - 6:00 pm (pre-workout) 1 scoop of Humapro
    - 8:00 pm (post-workout) 1 scoop of Humapro
    - 9.00 pm Meal containing all the calories I need for that day


    In the next post about nutrition I am going to talk about how I calculate calories and macros. Also you can find more detailed informations about Humapro and of the other supplements I take in the supplements section.

    Thank you for following!
