Has anyone ever tried this?
I'm a natural back loader. I'm not all that hungry through the day and I like to save my calories as a sort of safety net for the evenings. But I decided to give it a go and I've been losing again here lately. I don't know if it's that or if it's the running. Probably a combination of both. But front loading makes sense from a metabolism point of view. By getting most of my calories in earlier, I'm able to burn more of them off. I don't think my evening snack was helping my weight loss. So I moved that last snack to pre-workout instead. So now I have:
Pre-work out meal
breakfast
mini meal
lunch
mini meal
dinner
That's still six equally caloric meals, but nothing after about 6:30.
