    Perhaps I missed this in the guide, but I’m curious what should be the timing between meals? (ie 2-3 hours between meals)

    If your tracking your macros and food intake in an app, what macros are the protein balls, roughly?

    I’m having the same issue. Meal plan 1, didn’t change too much from meal plan, turkey instead of turkey bacon, and I still need to eat my last meal but I’m over in my protein after meal 4 ( post workout shake today). I know rounding changes some things but I’m over by at least 25-30 grams after meal 5, shud I reduce the protein in meal 5?

    Ok so in rxenakis’ example you increase weight for each set while staying in the range (ie10-12) for the week? I, too, misunderstood the rep ranges for each set noted! At least it’s only the first week!! Duh!!!

    I’m using the Lose it app and followed meal plan #1 exactly as stated but my macros are a lot higher than the chart shows. Should I decrease the amount of food to meet the stated macros?

    Naomi, here’s my schedule:

    Wake up – 6:00 am
    Work – 8:00 am
    Breakfast – 8-8:30 am
    Lunch – noon to 1 pm
    Off work – 5:00 pm
    Workout – 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm (roughly)
    Dinner – approx 7:30 pm
    Bed – 10:00 pm

    As of April 20th I will be retiring and will have more flexibility with changing workout times, but that’s halfway through this program. So, in the interim, I’d appreciate your recommendation on how to schedule my meals ?
    Thank you!

    I usually workout in the evening from 5:30 to 7 pm, with a post workout shake following my workout, meal 4 would be too late, is the shake enough until the next day? It seems like 4 meals from the time I wake up to the time of my workouts is too much? Is it more important to get all the macros and meals as stated without regard for how late it may be?
