I assume you are referring to the ability to stretch your stomach to consume more food? I typed in Google “stretch stomach to eat more” and for this as one of the first links:

If that isn’t what you are/were referring to, let me know.
I have always thought that 6 meals a day was a must. Is it not?
I have been training for 4 months now. For the Month of July, I ran 115 Miles, Lifted with a personal trainer 1 hour a day 5 days a week. I saw some great changes to my physique but only lost about 5LBs. I know it isn’t all about what the scale says, but It is frustrating to not see CRAZY changes.
Diet was CLEAN 7 days a week. No Alcohol. Fish, Chicken, No red Meat. BCAA’s during workout, Omega 3’s, CLA, Trn Win Test HGH.
If you aren’t doing 6 meals a day, what is the alternative? When I’m ‘On’, I’m pretty much hungry all day long anyways.

Will do! Admittedly, while there are no studies I’m aware of explicitly involving weight lifters and long-time multiple feedings per day, we know this: when you eat all the time, insulin levels are always high, and you’re stuck in fat storing mode. The pancreas reacts by pumping out every increasing amounts of insulin, which leads to insulin insensitivity.
However, even after a few hours of simple fasting, the body turns off fat storing and turns to fat burning.[/quote]
Thanks for sharing!
It’s good to have you around BSL.
I hope you post more often.[/quote]
Thank YOU!
And I will (post more often).

Thanks man!
I’m not going to sit here and debate. I stated in one of my first posts that to me, I feel gorging on one meal for 4000-5000 calories consistently isn’t healthy. I also believe the body can’t pull as many nutrients, you can only pull so much through a system before its at maximum capacity - I base this on my real world knowledge right or wrong.
That being said, and I said this too, people should do what’s best for them. If you want to eat small frequent meals do that, if you want 2-3 meals go that route. Its your body, your lifestyle, your choice.
The debate of insulin and diabetes I won’t go into because I don’t know enough about it. But I’d think consistent lower levels would be worse then few large spikes throughout the day. I also don’t know enough to evaluate what “indicators” in bloodwork would should pre-diabetes. Did the person showing these indications end up with diabetes, were there other issues, were they overweight? Doesn’t blood work also come back with other “high values” that could show problems because we lift and our body responds differently, or our how protein intake affects our kidneys, etc. etc.?
If there is knowledge about frequent meals being dangerous, why do all of the supplements have us doing multiple meals, multiple shakes, multiple scoops or some special concoction. People should learn to see the forest for the trees. But that’s enough from me :D.
^^looks like it belongs on a religion message board.

I hope that last paragraph is a joke. If not. Money.
I may be pulling this out of my ass, but didn’t Big Ron in the offseason say he would eat 3-4 big meals a day?

It’s ok.
Pulling things out of one’s ass seems to be the norm these days.
BTW you’re huge. Mirin’.

It’s funny he can use the word regularly however he wants and apparently “can” now means “will”.

5lbs in 4 months? If that’s the case, it’s very likely you are working out TOO much on a restricted diet. I lost 30lbs from January through July by eating 4-5 meals/day (not for any other reason except that schedule worked well for me), lifting 4x/week for 45-60 mins, and doing intervals once a week…and I was only “perfect” like 85-90% of the time (meaning I still drank sometimes, had pizza/cheesebugrs). I also got stronger during this time.
If you are trying to lose weight, you should be hungry all day long. I tracked my hunger level compared to my eating habits and weight loss over the course of a few months and found that if I kept my hunger levels between 3-7 (1 being starving and 10 being so stuffed I’m going to explode), the weight just fell off. When I hit level 3, I ate and stopped when I was satisfied, which was about a 7-8 level. Repeat.
You got the hard part done with choose only clean foods and the work ethic. Maybe just scale it back a couple of notches.
Just my opinion.
