I don't need to get to pro-cyclist level fat percentage, I would settle for just fitting into my jeans :) Thanks for the link i’ll have to check it out; is that why you’re looking so svelt these days??

It seems to be a really great system and should benefit most anyone. I felt great. I actually gained about 10 pounds following the program but my body fat decreased quite a bit. Bernardi works with some pro cyclists and interestingly recommends a completely different diet than precision nutrition that has a higher level of carbs: https://www.precisionnutrition.com/members/showthread.php?t=20399 It's a fucking beast and I'm not willing to go down that road.

I finally broke down and bought it because I'm somewhat bored with what I've been eating, and would like to try something new, just to see how it effects me with weight, energy levels, and muscle growth. Now to see if I can actually STICK to it! Actually, someone who works with them has a cookbook you can buy online, I might get that as well. It's insanely hard to find healthy, low carb, high protein vegetarian meals. Basically I just eat veggie stir fry...every night. :) Yeah I subscribe to his blog, which I find enormously helpful…I know that Heidi has used PN for a long time and really seems to love it.

Seems like most of the "principles" are available in his free on-line articles. The full program is tempting though. I'll be curious to hear how you like it! Specifically I'm curious about the measurement aspect. As we all know, BMI isn't a great indicator for athletes, and my Tanita scale seems pretty inconsistent. His free online articles don't say much about it, but I think there's a "Measurement Guide" in the full program. I’ve been looking at PN for a while now.
