Cheat Meal Strategy: Mimic the genetically elite s ability to partition nutrients towards muscle cells and glycogen stores and away from fat! The Cheat Meal Strategy is an essential that allows you to indulge in your favourite foods on the quest for your perfect physique.
We all know that one guy who eats garbage with a voracious
appetite. Yet he ALWAYS seems to stay lean and never sacrifices his abs! For me
and you, that’s a particular envious position to be in. We’re constantly having
to resist the urge to indulge in a well-deserved treat, because we know the
consequences can set us back on our road to progress. What these genetically
elite possess, is a term called “nutrient partitioning” – they are “insulin
sensitive”. When they eat trash, they simply upload all the calories to muscle
cells, can store glycogen efficiently and rarely spill over any remains to
adipose tissue. If only we could mimic the genetically elite. Well, now you can!
The term “insulin resistant” is used to describe the exact
opposite of insulin sensitive; it essentially means you’re reluctant to upload
glucose to cells, and the hormone insulin becomes less effective at lowering
blood sugar levels. This is not good; it facilitates fat storage and has a field
day in doing so. However, there IS a solution. Not only that, but it can be used
indefinitely to excellent effect.
The Cheat Meal Strategy is a combination of ingredients
clinically studied to replicate the nutrient partitioning effect of the
genetically elite. What does this mean? You can essentially “trick” the body to
becomes more insulin sensitive, promote protein synthesis and direct nutrients
to muscle cells instead of fat storage! Here’s how:
Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALCAR) is a naturally occuring metabolite
and a ket intermediary in fatty acid oxidation and cellular energy metabolism.
ALCAR has been purported to do a variety of ergogenic activities such as staving
off catabolism, increased concentrations of ATP for prolonged performance and
more. But to us, ALCAR’s most imperative function is its ability to attenuate
insulin resistance! This provides a gateway to start partitioning nutrients into
muscle cells, and away from fat storage. As ALCAR is also involved in the
metabolism of fatty acids for energy, it can make us more efficient at
utilisating fat stores,
To augment the effects of ALCAR, we included an undisputed,
superb glucose management tool in Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA). ALA has been used
efficaciously to treat individuals with type-2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome and
also a slew of other problems – but the first two are the most important to us.
Why? Because by being a prominent glucose management agent, ALA exerts a strong
effect in increasing the sensitivity of skeletal muscle cells to insulin, which
will further complement your physique! This happens in part due to its ability
to increase insulin receptor protein content. One last thing: ALA plays a
crucial role in the Krebs cycle, making us more energy efficienct in utilising
nutrients, and increasing energy storage in muscle cells.
Rounding out the cheat meal strategy is something we all know
about: Omega-3’s (EPA/DHA). Omega 3 fatty acids, as we know, produce an
astounding amount of physiological health benefits to the body. That is no
suprise to any of us. Quite frankly, they should be a staple in everyone’s
regime. But what about the nutrient partitioning effect and blood glucose
management? It’s got you covered: EPA and DHA have been used in convincing
fashion to treat triglyceride levels, and reduce serum cholesterol levels.
Further more, fish oil can augment blood glucose management, protect
cardiovascular health and perhaps most importantly to us, inhibit enzymes
involved in lipogenesis (fat deposition). They are also crucial in the oxidation
of fatty acids for energy and improving body composition. Quite frankly,
Omega-3’s are the bomb and their benefits are clear for all to see. Science has
proven time and time again that they simply cannot be ignored, and they round
out this synergistic combination superbly.
Why would you invest in this stack? We’d suspect after our
reasoning, you’d be foolish not to! The beauty of the Cheat Meal Strategy is
that it doesn’t have to be taken day in, day out. You simply take it with your
higher calorie meals, or “cheat meals”. You can also use it on your refeeds to
enhance glycogen storage and efficiency. It makes it wonderfully cost effective
and gives it credibility in terms of longevity. I’ve been using it once per week
myself while cutting on my cheat days, and the results are astounding.
Science has spoken. Which side are you on? We can envy the
genetically elite, but here is a stack that allows us to mimic their nutrient
partitioning factor, enhance glycogen storage and improve sensitivity to
nutrients. There’s been nothing as convincing before.
Dosing protocol:
15-30 minutes before a large meal, consume:
2-3 capsules of Acetyl-L-carnitine
2 capsules of Alpha-Lipoic Acid
2-3 capsules of Omega-3
Note: If you’re upwards of 200lbs, consume 3 capsules. If
not, 2 will suffice.
