In a few of his articles he states that these figures show that any fast lasting longer than 16 hours will result in a rather potent catabolic phase (that's the impression i get) and that Eat stop eat at 24 hours is probably too long therefore (though he doesnt directly say this) and could prevent well i suppose, effective body composition changes (say for someone who is already lean). What do you think about it in that sense? Yeah, sorry i probably wasn’t clear.

I'll assume Martin read some research to get these points, but unless I read the same research myself I cannot comment on his ability to interpret the results (although at a glance it all seems reasonable and seems to fit with regular physiology) I'm sure he did a decent job reading and understanding the research he is referring to here. Beyond that I'm not sure what exactly you are asking here. Do you think something that he said is out of the ordinary? JB Steele,

I'm sure some of these theories can help you improve 1-5% but is it worth the time and effort for an average person. What would that really amount to? Maybe I gain an extra pound of muscle but there is no proof of that. I have bulked up and then dropped weight and ended at the same point. Was it worth the ten months? Of course not. I am never going to think about protein, amino acids, and the rest of this stuff ever again. Find a plan that allows you to eat less (and enjoy your lifestyle) and lift heavy. Pretty simple and liberating. Thinking about the rest of this stuff won't change my genes or somatotype. Magazine ads were bad enough but now we have to fight against niche marketing via google search. Most of these new diets or ways of life are based on keyword search and search result volume. The average person has no clue. Keep up the great work John. Hi John,

He is an IFer but claims that studies show this: "This is an ongoing process, but liver glycogen does not need to be depleted in order for amino acids to contribute to the maintenance of blood glucose. The longer the fast, the greater the contribution - for example, after 16 hrs, aminos will start contributing more than 50% to the amount of glucose in your blood stream. After 24-28 hrs, 100%." What is your opinion on this? Can you explain it? Thanks, Steele Hey John,
