Changing the Dials

Think of your nutrition, work out, and supplements as individual dials on a dashboard that can be adjusted at any time. However, with any type of analysis you should never change more than one or two variables at a time so that you can truly see what affects your body, or not. I also believe that you need at least a month with any change for the body to adjust if it is going to at all. For example last month I increased my daily calorie intake from 3200 to 3700 per day and I am just now seeing a constant weight increase of 2 pounds.

This month as I have stated in earlier posts, I am concentrating on an average of 255 grams of protein and a minimum of 8 hours of sleep per day to see if it promotes any growth. Bottom line, don't get to crazy with changing too many things or you will be chasing your tail trying to find out what works.
