Found this interesting. Not sure of its inherent worth, but definitely a provocative read.It is critical for your body to feel hungry at least once a day from both a physical, emotional, and mental standpoint.www.bodybuilding.com/fun/mahler49.htmAwake!

I've been on some variation of The Warrior Diet since February 14th. Occasionally, I had to modify it a bit to suit my schedule and needs; however, that is one of the strengths of this regimen... it's about freedom, not strict rules. I recommend the book.
I'm enjoying the results so far. I plan on posting some lean and mean pictures on March 14th. Hopefully, it will be obvious that I have retained maximum muscle and minimum fat.
If anyone has questions about The Warrior Diet, feel free to ask.

I can experientially validate the majority of this article.
I do physical work...eat sparingly during the day, as meals tend to slow me down. I have a decent meal most nights, then drinks and indulgence in snack just before bed. Many people have argued on the foolishness of imbibing so many calories just before sleep-yet I have an exeptionally lean body (32 years old and no appreciable body fat, high energy all day).
Working without much caloric intake, I often feel as if I am running on pure will-power, or that I am burning off any unwanted tissue (such as fat, or as the article states, dead cells).
The bit about the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems makes sense to me.
To keep one's self active during the day, be it in artistic endeavours, business, athletics or what-have-you, it makes sense to keep within the fight-flight routine, saving the chillax, snuggled up, safe and indulgent time for "off" hours".

Indeed, this regimen seems to me a lifestyle approach opposed to standard diets which people are meant to go on and then off repeatedly. I liken it to a paradigm shift rather than a temporary imbalance of new ideas.
And I am not alone. There are many on bodybuilding.com who swear by The Warrior Diet.

Alright, it's been exactly one month since I've been on The Warrior Diet. Keep in mind that I've also been engaged in weight training and cardio for about a year.
My plan is to keep using The Warrior Diet until I can see clearly defined abdominal muscles. At that point, I might modify it more to a traditional bodybuilder diet in order to slowly bulk up with lean muscle gains or perhaps I'll simply want to maintain at that point.

Can you elaborate on the stomach pain and what exactly is messed up? What happens if you don't eat every few hours? How many is a few? Does it make a difference on the time of day or the type of food you're eating and what are the portion sizes? How much exercise are you getting each day/week?
If you are committed to finding a solution, then I'm sure we can fix any problems you have.

Well anxiety is a big part of the problem and my stomach acids are very high and when they rise above some levels like if I don't get my regular meal,like lunch dinner and something at night before sleep,well basically what happens when the stomach acids get much to high they start to poison the body and I get very sick I am sometimes well I can just say deactivated for days with great pain and I am almost powerless and cant work or anything. This happens sometimes but not as often nowadays as before but it comes in turns and,well I can handle the pain but not being able to perform,its is very hard to concentrate at some times and it takes a lot of energy bot mental and physical. Well this gets me sometimes very depressed and I can go very far down mentally during these phases,I think that the stomach can maybe not be repaired but what I need most is maybe someway to cope with it and get some control over the situation,well like I said anxiety is the biggest factor and I find it very hard to control it it sometimes completely takes over and sometimes for a long time but not always,we can call it chronic anxiety,I take medication for it but that doesn't always work. Well I maybe should have put it in other words than saying I needed cure for stomach,it is more mental thing and some advise concerning anxiety would be of great help. When the stars are right

There should be something you can take to sooth your stomach. What vitamins, minerals, herbs, extracts and such do you take? I know there are ones designed to ease tension, decrease stress, give you a sense of well-being, etc.
Maybe something like low fat cottage cheese or maybe organic skim milk would settle your acidic stomach?
Keep eating regular meals if that helps, but keep the portions small and high in protein.
By the way, are you trying to cut or bulk? Don't think you mentioned what exercise (if any) you get throughout the week. What are your goals?

Thank you for the advise Master,I will follow the instructions the best I can. I have to admit that I can be lazy to exercise but I am working on changing that and start to walk more every day. Exercise is the best way to deal with pain naturally and it often helps a lot taking long walk to get the stomach in gear again. Also I am gonna cut down coffee drinking a lot,since I know it is not helping with anything, it just upsets the stomach more and about the anxiety I just have to work on getting it under control like I managed to do with my anger,there's gotta be some way,If anyone has some advise I would be grateful.

Wow, i just read the article, everything that guy said about eating heavy morning meal slows a person's down. he is right it doesnt energize me it makes me sluggish! And the systems he was talking about makes sense, if you let your body go hungry during the day you will know what to eat at night and there is no doubt about it because i have done that before but i just didnt realize this was a warrior diet and when i use to do that i was more energetic and more active , I think i need to go back on that lifestyle and stick with it. Although the doctors said that i need a high protein and low fat diet..well this is the answer! During the day its small amount of fruits and veggies or nothing at all and at night a high protein meal.Thanks for the information HP Venger.By the way keep up with the good work on yourself!

Lord Satanis, If I may steal a moment of your time. I'm liking what I've read so far about the Warrior's Diet. I am wondering what sort of food I should eat during the undereating and over-eating phases? What in particular should I stay away from? I also recently started cardio in the mornings and strength training in the evenings. Any advice would be appreciated!

See the "Emerald Nine" post on this very board. The first list is for specific training, a bit later in the thread is a list of nine foods you should focus on.
The Warrior Diet recommends natural fruit juices, nuts, berries, and lean protein like eggs and chicken breast during the under-eating phase before and after a workout. Oh, and lots of water throughout the day.
Just so you know, a couple weeks ago I transitioned into Intermittent Fasting which is like the Warrior Diet except it's 14 to 16 hours of fasting followed by 10 to 8 hours of eating unprocessed, healthy, and protein-rich foods. For me, it's easier to manage. Controlled meals - no binging! Will post results in a couple more weeks.
Also, trying out abbreviated workouts. Super intense, but quick training only 3 times a week. Failure should come between 2 - 5 reps. About 3 sets per compound movement (exercises that work multiple muscles simultaneously like bench press, squat, deadlift, pull-ups, and chins.
Any more questions, just ask...

I'm trying a bit this warrior diet, at least I eat less for lunch and more for dinner. Seems good... I'm loosing some unwanted fat and feel beter the afternoon, and sleep better.
Exactly the inverse of what proclame the "conventional wisdom" ha ha ha... the usual wisdom of the fools, this hord of sheep called average men (Sorry for this negative thought, but how I despise them).
Anyone noticed this is the diet of the men of Numenor (the lord of the rings) ?

Greetings,
I am on day 3 of the warrior diet and am finding it amazing. For a few years I have been weight training and have done martial arts since I was a child, so I am already in pretty good condition. In the three days of the warrior diet I am already experiencing some fat loss. Even better than that is the magickal aspects of training the Will. It is interesting to watch the body grave food out of habit instead of genuine hunger. It is interesting to begin to feel genuine hunger and then force the body to obey the Will and wait another hour and a half. It is interesting to learn that I can go to the gym in the morning, work in the Texas heat all day and be alert, focused, and stong on an apple and a banana!
Anyone who has not tried this diet should definately give it a try. Even if you are not interested in weight loss, try it out as an experiment in Will.
I also recommend the book. It is really well put together and has a lot of useful, interesting info.
Has anyone tried this guys whey suppliment yet?

Thanks, everyone.
About a month ago, I started a bulking cycle in order to build more muscle. After 2 or 3 months I'll probably start cutting again, but we'll see. A pity that I've lost a bit of definition around the abdominal area, but I can get that back in a few weeks of intermittent fasting.
Will post more pictures when I have something more to show.
