High intensity at long durations (60mins +) can burn muscle. But keep your HIIT sessions short and you're actually going to maintain more muscle and burn more fat.

Hey Scott your comment showed up twice so I'll answer the first one,

I like that you're tapering your calories. For the end of the day meal, I'd even double up on the cottage cheese, take out the yogurt and strawberries and have a handful of almonds. The protein (cottage cheese), and the monounsaturated fats (almonds) will give your metabolism a boost before you head to bed.

Thanks for the comment, your results are great keep it up!

The post is great and has some real common sense tools to use (and for me to hopefully not over complicate). I have been loading my calories earlier in the day and trying to taper off by 6 pm with maybe a 10 pm 1/2 cup of cottage cheese, strawberries and 4 oz. plain yogurt "parfait" before heading to bed. I still do not use protein powder but that is probably next in the search of keeping mass and cutting fat (down 20lbs so far and feeling much stronger).

Thanks,

Scott

Finishers are great. If you're getting great results with them then stick with it. If you begin to plateau then change things up. I like mixing my workouts up, trying new things is how you learn what works best for you.

Thanks,

1) a break between weights and cardio results in greater calories expended during the cardio portion of your workout than there would be if they were done back to back. This break doesn't have to be at the opposite ends of the day. Stretch for 20 mins after a lift, then finish off with some HIIT. You'll still get the same amount of recovery in terms of hours.

2) the fats in almonds speed up your metabolism, so does protein. If you have enough protein in your shake I wouldn't worry about almonds having a negative effect on your recovery or protein absorption. What it WILL do is help your body use the fat that it has stored as a source of fuel.

Thanks for the comment, great questions.

– Chad
