The recommended diet is not one of those fad diets that keep you hungry – quite the opposite. It’s all about providing nutritious fuel to your muscles every 3 hours, so you don’t get hungry. The book details exactly what nutrients your body needs, and which foods are the healthiest choices.
The emphasis is not on counting calories, but on eating “portions”. A portion of protein is the size of the palm of your hand. A “portion” of carbohydrates is the size of your clenched fist. Since you use your own hand to determine portion size, it is customized to your body’s needs. To plan a meal, pair a healthy protein (such as chicken or turkey breast) with a healthy carb (such as a sweet potato or squash).
Eat 6 times per day: 7am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm, 7pm, and 10pm. Add a vegetable to 3 of those meals. Each day, drink 10 8 oz cups of water.
A special rule makes it easier to follow this diet than any other – one day a week you can eat whatever you want! So feed your body healthy food Monday – Saturday, watch and feel those pounds melt off without any hunger, and you can still eat your favorite treat on Sunday. Sundays are also a good time to plan the next week’s meals and shop for the foods you’ll need. Batch cook on Sunday and save foods in appropriate portion sizes, to save time throughout the coming week. Use small capacity containers for saving food, to help ensure the correct portion size. The exercise plan alternates strength training with aerobic exercise for 6 days, then rest 1 day.
Day 1 you strength train your upper body, on Day 2 aerobic exercise, on Day 3 strength train your lower body, on Day 4 aerobic exercise, Day 5 upper body, Day 6 aerobics, Day 7 rest. Yes, completely rest. And that’s the day you can also eat whatever you want. It’s your “free day”. The book provides instructions and photos to correctly perform strength training exercises, with progressive repetitions and intensity. Workouts target specific muscle groups for a short duration. Each day you’ll spend 42 minutes on lower body, 46 on upper body, or 20 on aerobics.
