Introduction ToBody Sculpting Nutrition

Whether your goal is to burn fat or gain muscle, the nutrition principles that I am aboutto share with you are a perfect compliment to the body sculpting workouts within theMetabolic Masterpiece Body Sculpting Program. These are not “breakthrough” or “cutting edge” strategies. These are time tested and proven nutrition principles thathave sculpted the best physiques in the world for over half a century.

My nutrition philosophy is, “Why try to re-invent the wheel, when tens of thousandsof the hottest and sexiest men and women on the planet have already created a

proven blueprint to follow?” Those HOT women and men with the best physiques inthe world are fitness models and bodybuilders. I refer to these sculpted women andmen as Physique Artists .

2 Powerful Nutrition Characteristics Of A Physique Artist

There are two powerful nutrition characteristics that make a Physique Artist stand outfrom the crowd...

a) Physique Artists Plan Their Mealsb) Physique Artists Track Their Progress

The best bodybuilders and fitness models make the effort to plan and track their nutrition with detail and precision . They are methodical with their approaches.There’s no guess work involved, which means that you’ve got to know how manycalories you are consuming each day. That may sound like a lot of work, but it reallyisn’t. In fact, it’s easier and less stressful than the way that most people go aboutmindlessly eating and trying to figure out what they are going to eat for dinner eachnight.

The way to make calorie counting easy and effortless is to create a 7 Day Master MealPlan . Make a list of the top healthy foods and meals that you enjoy. Then calculate thecalories for each meal and snack. That’s it! You only have to count calories this onetime. You do it once and stick to the plan.

Of course there will be the odd occasion when you have a different treat or go out for dinner as a cheat meal and you’ll need to take into account those calories, which werenot a part of your master meal plan, but for the most part (90-95% of the time), you’ll besticking to the foods that you typically eat and you’ll already know the calorie content.

In the Metabolic Masterpiece Body Sculpting Program I make things even moreeffortless for you by providing a variety of easy to prepare healthy meals that include thecalorie content and nutrition facts. Choose the meals that appeal to you and add themto your own 7 Day Master Meal Plan based on my proven fat burning meals.

In addition to planning their meals in advance, Physique Artists track their progress thathas resulted from their planned meals. If they have not achieved the desired fat loss or muscle building results from their plan, they recognize that a simple tweak in portionsize is all that needs to be adjusted in order to reach their goal. This feedback loop isthe key to their ongoing success.

If you are not willing to plan and track your nutrition I suggest that you ask yourself thequestion, “How serious am I about transforming my average body into a sculpted work of art?”

The Top 2 Fat Loss Nutrition Strategies Of A Physique Artist

Physique Artists prefer to keep things simple when it comes to nutrition. A great chunkof their results boils down to two key strategies...

a) Carb Cyclingb) Energy Partitioning

Carb Cycling is a nutrition practice where you simply reduce (not eliminate) your carbohydrate intake for 3 days, followed by 1-3 days of increased carb intake dependingon whether your goal is to burn fat or build muscle.

Energy Partitioning is a nutrition practice that utilizes the fuel that you consume in aneffort to feed your muscles and prevent those calories from being stored as fat. WithEnergy Partitioning you will consume a good chunk of your calories around your workout and exercise for the day. These calories will be burned as fuel during your workout and used to repair, rebuild, and refuel your muscles for the next workout. Inshort, these calories will be used to sculpt your body.

The 5 Step Process For Fat Loss

Applying the 2 powerful nutrition characteristics and 2 fat loss nutrition strategies of thebest Physique Artists in the world can be boiled down to a simple 5 Step Process...

Step #1 - Know Your Goal: Fat Loss or Muscle Building

The workouts within the Metabolic Masterpiece Body Sculpting Program can be usedfor both fat loss and muscle building. What will determine the outcome is your nutrition.The foods that you consume will always be the same. It’s the quantity and how youcycle your carbs that will make the difference.

Fat Loss Nutrition - If your primary goal is fat loss I recommend creating a caloric

deficit of 15% for 3 days. This range provides you with the best chance of gainingsome precious lean muscle mass while you burn unwanted fat from your body. Thisdeficit range also makes it much easier to manage your hunger. Most people don’t evenfeel like they are on a diet when their deficit is only 15%. On the 4th day you willincrease your calories up to your TDEE (maintenance level) . This increase in caloriesshould come mostly from carbohydrates. That’s why the call it carb cycling. You go 3days on lower carbs followed by 1 day of increased carbs.

The increase in calories on the 4th day will prevent your body from going into starvation

mode. The increase in carbohydrates on the 4th day will replenish your glycogen stores(energy). Overall, this refeed day is a great mental break from “dieting” as well.

If you follow the Energy Partitioning practice of consuming a larger chunk of your calories around your workout, your chances of gaining muscle during this fat loss phasewill certainly increase.

Muscle Building & Fat Burning Nutrition - If your primary goal is to build muscle, butyou would still like to burn some fat in the process, I recommend creating a 15% deficit

for 3 days followed by a 15% surplus for 2 days.

Once again, the difference from your 15% deficit to your 15% surplus should comemostly from carbohydrates. Your protein and fat intake should stay relatively the same.Once again, if you are consuming a good chunk of your calories around your workout,your chances of gaining muscle will increase.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/metabolic-masterpiece-nutrition 6/42

Muscle Building Nutrition (Lean Gains) - If your goal is to build muscle, whilemaintaining your current body fat percentage, I recommend creating a 15% deficit for 3days followed by a 15% surplus for 3 days.

Step #2 - Calculate Your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)We’re going to use the Harris-Benedict Formula to calculate your caloric intake duringthis 12 week transformation. First we’ll calculate your basal metabolic rate (BMR)...

Men: 66 + (13.7 x wt in kg) + (5 X ht in cm) - (6.8 X age in years)Women: 655 + (9.6 X wt in kg) + (1.8 X ht in cm) - (4.7 X age in years)

Conversions:

1 inch = 2.54 cm1 kg = 2.2 lbs

Here’s an example of a male who is 5’8” tall, 35 years old, and weighs 165 pounds...

BMR: 66 + 1027.5 + 863.6 - 238 = 1719.1

1719.1 calories is what this particular male would burn if he was at rest all day. Thisdoes not take into account his activity level.

While following the Metabolic Masterpiece Body Sculpting Program, you will be weighttraining 4-5 days per week and walking 5 days per week. Based on this activity level Irecommend that you multiply your BMR by 1.55.

For the example above, this male would multiply 1719.1 X 1.55 = 2664.61

Therefore the average Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE), that this male wouldexperience while following the Metabolic Masterpiece Body Sculpting Program is 2665

calories per day.

NOTE: As you progress and release fat from your body or gain muscle, you shouldrecalculate your BMR and TDEE. Toward the end of your body sculpting journey your BMR and TDEE will be slightly lower or higher because you weight has changed. If youare still going by your original calculations even though you may be 10 or 15 pounds

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/metabolic-masterpiece-nutrition 7/42

lighter, your caloric deficit may be 100-500 calories less than what you think it is or evenworse. That could lead to stalled results during the home stretch.

Step #3 - Calculate Your Caloric Deficit and Surplus

If we continue with the example of the 35 year old male who is 5‘8” and weighs 165 lbs,the calculations would look like this...

Fat Loss As The Primary Goal (3 days low - 1 day TDEE)

15% deficit (TDEE x .15)2664.61 x .15 = 399.692664.61 - 399.69 = 2264.92

With a 15% deficit, this male would consume 399.69 calories less than his TDEE,equalling 2265 calories for his deficit days.

Here’s what his carb cycling schedule would look like...

Day 1, 2, 3 = 2265 calories consisting of mostly lean protein, veggies, and healthy fats. Any starchy carbs should be consumed early in the day or around the workout.

Day 4 = 2665 calories consisting of lean protein, veggies, healthy fats, and an increasedamount of starchy carbs. Once again, it’s ideal to consume the starchy carbs earlier inthe day or immediately after your workout.

You would then continue to repeat this cycle of 3 days in a 15% caloric deficit and 1 dayof TDDE caloric intake.

If you want to get more aggressive with your deficit 20-30% would be acceptable, butdon’t expect to gain any muscle in the process. I don’t recommend sticking with this kind

of aggressive deficit for any kind of extended period of time. 4-6 weeks max! You willexperience hunger with an aggressive deficit like this. It’s definitely not easy.

20% deficit (TDEE x .20)2664.61 x .20 = 532.922664.61 - 532.92 = 2131.69

7/28/2019 Metabolic Masterpiece Nutrition

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/metabolic-masterpiece-nutrition 8/42

With a 20% deficit, this male would consume 532.92 calories less than his TDEE,equalling 2132 calories for his deficit days.

25% deficit (TDEE x .25)

2664.61 x .25 = 666.152664.61 - 666.15 = 1998.46

With a 25% deficit, this male would consume 666.15 calories less than his TDEE,equalling 1998 calories for his deficit days.

30 % deficit (TDEE x .30)2664.61 x .30 = 799.382664.61 - 799.38 = 1865.23

With a 30% deficit, this male would consume 799.38 calories less than his TDEE,equalling 1865 calories for his deficit days.

Muscle Building & Fat Loss (3 days low - 2 days high)

15% Surplus (TDEE x .15)2664.61 x .15 = 399.692664.61 + 399.69 = 3064.3

With a 15% surplus, this male would consume 399.69 calories more than his TDEE,equalling 3064 calories for his surplus days.

Here’s what his carb cycling schedule would look like...

Day 1, 2, 3 = 2265 calories consisting of mostly lean protein, veggies, and healthy fats. Any starchy carbs should be consumed early in the day or around the workout.

Day 4 & 5 = 3064 calories. As mentioned earlier, this increase in calories should comefrom carbohydrates, while maintaining the same amount of protein and fats that youconsumed in your deficit days. Typically I will increase the amount of oatmeal, potatoes,sweet potatoes, or quinoa on these days. I’ll add more oatmeal to my high proteinpancakes for breakfast and Shepherd’s Pie is a common dinner for me on these surplusdays. I may also use these days to consume whole wheat bread or pasta.

You would then continue to repeat this cycle of 3 days in a 15% caloric deficit and 2days in a 15% surplus.

Muscle Building Lean Gains (3 days low - 3 days high)

Here’s what his carb cycling schedule would look like...

Day 1, 2, 3 = 2265 calories consisting of mostly lean protein, veggies, and healthy fats. Any starchy carbs should be consumed early in the day or around the workout.

Day 4, 5, & 6 = 3064 calories.

You would then continue to repeat this cycle of 3 days in a 15% caloric deficit and 3days in a 15% surplus.

Step #4 - Determine Your Macronutrient Ratio

As I’ve been alluding to, the only thing that you need to change between your deficitdays and your TDEE or Surplus days is your carb intake. This actually simplifies thingsfor you by keeping your protein and fats relatively the same each day.

When it comes to body sculpting nutrition, my Top Two Priorities are:

1) Meeting my caloric needs for the day.2) Meeting my protein intake goal for the day.

I recommend consuming between 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per pound body weight.What I have found works best for me is sticking around the 1.5 grams per pound bodyweight. One of the reasons is because protein tends to make you feel fuller, which canbe especially helpful on deficit days.

Going with the example above, with a 35 year old male weighing 165 pounds, hisprotein intake would be between 165 grams and 247.5 grams per day. As I mentioned, Iprefer to stick around the high end when it comes to protein.

There are 4 calories for every gram of protein, therefore if the male in this example wentwith the high protein consumption of 247.5 grams of protein per day, 990 of his dailycalories would come from protein.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/metabolic-masterpiece-nutrition 10/42

For fat intake, I recommend consuming 0.4 grams per pound of body weight. Using theexample above, the fat intake for this male would be 66 grams per day.

There are 9 calories for every gram of fat, therefore 594 calories per day would comefrom fat intake for this male.

Let’s use these numbers to see what the weekly macronutrient breakdown would looklike for this male...

Fat Loss As The Primary Goal (3 days low - 1 day TDEE)

NOTE: Using the example of a 35 year old male 5‘8” tall and 165 pounds.

Day 1, 2, 3 (15% deficit) = 2265 calories.

Protein = 247.5 grams or 990 caloriesFat = 66 grams or 594 calories.

The balance of the calories will come from carbohydrates.2265 - 990 (protein calories) - 594 (fat calories) = 681

There are 4 calories for every gram of carbohydrates. Therefore 681 carbohydratecalories would equal 170 grams.

Carbs = 170 grams or 681 calories

Day 4 (TDEE) = 2665 calories.

Protein = 247.5 grams or 990 caloriesFat = 66 grams or 594 calories.

The balance of the calories will come from carbohydrates.2665 - 990 (protein calories) - 594 (fat calories) = 1081

Carbs = 270 grams or 1081 calories

Day 1, 2, 3 (15% deficit) = 2265 calories.

Protein = 247.5 grams or 990 caloriesFat = 66 grams or 594 calories.Carbs = 170 grams or 681 calories

Day 4 & 5 (15% surplus) = 3064 calories.

Protein = 247.5 grams or 990 caloriesFat = 66 grams or 594 calories.

The balance of the calories will come from carbohydrates.3064 - 990 (protein calories) - 594 (fat calories) = 1480

Step #5 - Plan Your Meals Based On Your Calculations

There’s a famous quote that, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” I totally agree! If you are just going to ‘wing it’ when it comes to your meals, you are opening the door for

sabotage. If you are waiting until the last minute to decide what you are going to havefor dinner, there’s a pretty good chance that you’ll be picking at some unhealthy foodswhile you prepare dinner, or maybe you’ll even end up ordering in pizza out of convenience. Having a master meal plan will set you up for success and help youavoid any potential stumbling blocks.

Calculating your caloric and macronutrient intake may seem like a lot of work at firstglance, but it should only take 10-minutes at the most to run those numbers. That 10-minute time investment will pay huge dividends throughout your body sculpting journey.

Now that you have the calculations out of the way, it’s time to plan your meals aroundthose numbers. I’ll create several menus consisting of meals that add up to my 15%caloric deficit and meets my desired protein goal for the day. Then I’ll do the same for my TDEE days or 15% surplus days.

On the following pages I will be providing sample meals that you can use to plug intoyour own Master Meal Plan. You may have to adjust the quantity of certain ingredientsin order to match up with your personal caloric intake, but that should be relatively

simple.

Personally, I plan for 4-6 meals per day. One of the reasons is because I find that if Iconsume fewer meals I get too full. My stomach can’t handle large volumes of food. Theother reason is because if I go too long between meals I am more likely to overeatduring my meals. There isn’t much of a difference metabolically speaking if youconsume 3 or 6 meals. The difference is in your behaviors and how you respond to themeal frequency. Lifestyle really comes into play when determining your meal frequency.

Common FoodsIf you were to look at my personal meal plan, you would see that I eat a lot of the samefoods every day. Eggs, egg whites, oatmeal, blueberries, banana’s, protein powder, anda Full Strength shake are foods that I consume on a daily basis. Some people may callthat boring, but to me it’s far from boring. Every time that I make eggs I do something

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/metabolic-masterpiece-nutrition 13/42

different with the recipe. Eggs are my favorite food to eat and it’s the easiest way toensure that I meet my vegetable quota for the day.

I love the fact that I don’t have to think about what I’m going to be eating during the first

8 hours of my day. It makes my life so much easier and it’s a healthy habit that simplycannot be broken.

Dinner is where I add some variety. Often times there is enough leftover so I may havethe same dinner two days in a row. Common dinners that we have throughout the weekare; Shepherd’s Pie, Salmon and Veggies, Beef Barley Soup, Chicken Stir Fry, StuffedPeppers, Chicken an d Veggies, and Lean Burgers.

My largest meal of the day, as I’ve mentioned, is the meal immediately after my workout.Consuming a large portion of your calories after your workout is a great way to create a“Temporary” surplus, giving your muscles the opportunity to recover, repair, and mostimportant GROW!

Food Measurements

I recently invested in a food scale. It’s been one of the best decisions that I’ve ever made. If you read the labels of certain foods such as egg whites, frozen blueberries, or oats, you will see that the serving size is in cups and grams. If you simply go by cups,you could either be under or over estimating the calories in those foods.

For example;

On the package, 1 cup of frozen blueberries equals 140 grams. Yet if you poured 1 levelcup of blueberries it wouldn’t equal 140 grams. You need to pour a heaping mound of blueberries in 1 cup in order to equal 140 grams. I was overestimating how manycalories I was consuming from blueberries because I was relying on cups as mymeasurement.

7/28/2019 Metabolic Masterpiece Nutrition

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/metabolic-masterpiece-nutrition 15/42

On the other had we have oatmeal which reads 1/2 cup or 40 grams on the label. WhenI pour the oatmeal in the 1/2 cup and weigh it, the measurement is more than 40 grams.Therefore I was over underestimating how many calories I was getting from oatmeal.

1/4 cup of egg whites is 63 grams, yet when I fill up 1/4 cup it’s often less than 63grams.

If I look up 1 medium banana in a calorie counter book, it lists it at 4.4 oz. If you simplyeyeball each banana, they are all different sizes, so how do you know what a mediumbanana really is unless you weigh it?

These ingredients make up a high protein pancake, which is one of my favorite dailymeals. If I was to simply guess or use only measuring cups, I could easily be off by over 100 calories, which can make a big impact on the outcome of your results over thecourse of a day and even more so over the course of a week.

When clients tell me that they are eating really well and don’t understand why theyaren’t burning fat, it’s usually because of the errors in caloric intake estimations. Theyare consuming more than they think because they are either guessing or simply goingby cups instead of weighing their food.

It takes seconds to weigh your food as you cook it. That small time investment can havea significant impact on your overall results. Yes, you can burn fat without countingcalories and without weighing your food. What that means is that you are a very goodguesser. I prefer to be more precise with nutrition and take as much guess work out of the equation. I want to be as certain as possible about what I can expect to achievethroughout the week.

Track Your Progress

As I mentioned earlier, one of the powerful nutrition characteristics of a physique artist isthat they track their progress. At the end of the week, if you followed your meal plan to a“T”, based on your calculations and you gave your best effort to the MetabolicMasterpiece Body Sculpting Workouts, but you did not achieve your desired weight lossor muscle building goal, you will have to make some minor tweaks to your nutrition.

Taking the time to run your numbers in the calculations is very important, but this still isonly meant to provide you with a starting point. We are all different, which is why we

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/metabolic-masterpiece-nutrition 16/42

must pay attention to our feedback loop each week and make the necessaryadjustments in order to reach our goals.

Supplements

As I mentioned, I consume a Full Strength shake daily and love it! I consume it as apost-workout meal or for breakfast on non-workout days. Full Strength fills me withloads of en ergy to help m e perform my absolute best, both in and ou t of the gym. With40 grams of the best quality protein, 25 grams high quality carbs, 5 grams of healthyfats, 12 grams of glutamine, and much more, it’s no wonder that Full Strength satisfiesmy hunger while providing my body with everything that it needs to transform. Plus,Shawn Phillips, the creator of Full Strength, is one heck of a stand up guy!

NOTE: I pride myself on being completely transparent. If you decide that you would loveto experience the benefits of Full Strength also, and you make the wise investment byclicking through the Full Strength links in this book, I will earn $5 per box. It’s importantto note that I was recommending Full Strength to my friends, family, and customers for several months prior to becoming an affiliate of their nutrition shake.

In addition to Full Strength, I also add protein powder to my high protein pancakes, andon occasion will consume an extra shake throughout the day in order to meet myprotein consumption goal for the day. My personal choice is Optimum Nutrition Gold

Standard Whey Protein. It contains 24 grams of protein, 3 grams of carbs, and 1 gramof fat. I have no affiliation with this company at all.

For the past few months I have been consuming 5 grams of creatine monohydrate(made with Creapure), mixed in a warm cup of water. I plan on experimenting with 2servings per day.

The only other supplement company that I have endorsed is Prograde Nutrition. I haveused their Protein Powder , EFA Icon (healthy fats), and their BCAA’s to ensure that Iwas getting enough quality protein to preserve my muscle mass when I was in a moreaggressive fat loss deficit.

I am also a Prograde Partner and earn a percentage from each purchase that is madethrough the links within this book. Although I do have a monetary interest inrecommending Prograde Supplements, I have also been a user of these supplements

for the past 3 years. The quality is top notch and the Prograde company itself is basedon the highest integrity.

Metabolic Masterpiece Meal Plan

Below, you will find samples of the meals that I have consumed throughout this bod ysculpting journey. Review the meal options for breakfast lunch, and dinner and usethem to create your own 7 Day Master Meal Plan. You can modify from week to week bymaking substitutions from the meals listed below. You will just have to modify the portionsizes to suit your daily caloric intake.

Here’s what I recommend...

As you go through the recipes, think about how each meal would best suit your schedule. Are there certain days where your schedule is hectic after work and it wouldbe tough to prepare a healthy dinner? Those would be great days to wake up 15-minutes early and prepare a slow cooker meal. It will be cooking all day and will beready for you when you get home.

If there are days when you prefer an easy lunch it would be a great opportunity to haveleft overs from the previous night’s dinner or double up on the breakfast recipe. Some of the High Protein Pancake recipes are high in calories. It could be ideal for some peopleto make the full recipe and use it as two separate meals. Many of the lunch recipes arequick and easy to make. Plus you can make a bit extra and have it as a snack if you

desire.By mixing and matching the recipes and meals, you can create your own 7 day Master Meal Plan, which you can follow every week. This will totally take the guess work out of nutrition and set you up for fat loss success!

We are continuing to add more recipes and meal plans to the Metabolic Masterpieceprogram, so be sure to check back regularly and keep an eye on your inbox for anyupdate announcements.

Enjoy these healthy and delicious meals!

6 garlic cloves 24 cals 6 carb

Total 3459 410 231 97

Per Serving 576 68 38.5 16

Directions:Cook lean ground beef in a medium saucepan with 3 finely chopped garlic cloves.(We also used ground chicken and turkey with this recipe as well as sweet potatoes and

it’s outstanding!)

While your beef is cooking boil white potatoes with 3 cloves garlic. When your potatoesare soft, drain the water and mash them with skim milk and seasonings of your choice.( we often boil our potatoes with a few garlic cloves which also get mashed). We haven’ttried this yet, but I’m sure that you could also use almond milk as a substitute for theskim milk and even add some almond butter.

Next… after your potatoes are mashed and lean beef cooked, simply place the leanground beef in the slow cooker followed by a can of creamed corn and finally add your mashed potatoes on top. Turn your slow cooker on high and cook for 20-30 minutes.

(NOTE: We alternatively place the shepherd’s pie in a casserole dish and cook it in theoven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.)Watch how we prepare this meal on video >>>>

Two of my favorite meals that are a) whole chicken prepared in a slow cooker with

sweet potatoes b) roast and sweet potatoes prepared in a slow cooker. It’s a little moredifficult to calculate the exact caloric content of these meals, but they are AWESOME!

Conclusion

Keep your eyes out for more meals and recipes. I will be updating it frequently.

If you are feeling a little overwhelmed by all the number crunching, don’t worry. That’s anatural reaction. Understand that it’s way easier than it may initially sound. Within 15minutes you should have all the numbers that you need for your caloric deficit, TDEE,and caloric surplus.

Creating your personal 7 day meal plan will not take much longer either, especially withthe meals that I have shared in this book, which have the calorie counts included. Onceyou put in this initial upfront work, it’s pretty straight forward from here on out. If you

have any questions at all, you’ll be able to find me in the support community where I willbe more than happy to help you out.

It’s very important to note that any information and advice that I provide when it comesto nutrition is heavily influenced by Tom Venuto and his books Burn The Fat Feed TheMuscle and The Holy Grail Body Transformation Program . If you are familiar withTom’s w ork, the strategies that I have shared probably look ve ry familiar to you. Whatyou will gain from my nutrition advice is simply seeing how I a pply Tom’s strategies in the meals and recipes that I prepare, as well as the timing of my meals .

On the following page I have included a worksheet that you can use as your nutrition logif you wish. I personally prefer to log my nutrition electronically, because I eat a lot of thesame meals and I can simply copy and paste a meal that I previously ate.

Now it’s time to ROCK! Get out there and sculpt that body!
