Nutrition Overview
*scroll down for nutrition plans for 6 meals per day, 3 meals per day and intermittent fasting plans.
The Old Man Jacked Workout Program will follow a lower carb nutrition plan. While it is not exact science, we'll be pounding down clean foods and eating balanced at most meals. The carbs we do ingest will be in the form of fruits, vegetables and low-glycemic complex carbohydrates like sweet potatoes and oatmeal. Nutrition can have a tremendous impact on your results, so stick to the plan as closely as possible.
Intermittent Fasting Nutrition Guide
When following intermittent fasting, you should be fasting for a minimum of 16 hours and eating for 8. If you want a longer fasting window, that is Ok, but anything less than a 16-hour fast and you are losing the benefits of intermittent fasting.
When following intermittent fasting, we don't typically eat scheduled meals. You break your fast, eat approved foods all day long when hungry and then eat a higher carb meal right before bedtime.
Sample Intermittent Fasting Nutrition
