I apologise in advance if there is/was an existing discussion about the zone diet in another thread - but after having run a search, I can't find it.
I basically just want to know what the general consensus is on this diet, and how applicable it is to martial arts practice geared towards that sweet spot between being strong and having muscular endurance.
Having had a look at the portion breakdowns and having made a few meals with the prescribed blocks, I'm finding that the carb volume is much higher, and protein volume much lower, than I'm used to.
Thoughts?
(btw my goals are to improve performance, more-or-less maintain current bf%, and get stronger. adding mass is really more secondary as a goal)
