I used to work ten hours a day, had two small kids, and lifted ~7 hours a week. The time is there. You just have to find it. I had to use 8:30-10pm to get it done. I know lots of folks who go the other way and do it at 5am.

if you live in an area with an abundant food supply (as hunter-gatherer tribes, if they want to survive, tend to do) . . . . The short life spans were primarily a result of having an inconsistent food supply . . . .

Well done.
shmokes:
Here's what really matters about this diet as far as I'm concerned. There is no way to seriously argue that there aren't fundamental problems with our society's diet. To do so would be idiotic. It goes without saying that there are innumerable ways to improve upon the way we tend to eat.
I've been doing the Warrior Diet for a few weeks. It's not very difficult and I feel really great. That's all that I need for now. But I'm certainly open to the possibility that I won't like it in the end. At any rate, although I've given you the briefest glimpse of what it entails in terms of my daily activities, there is a body of science supporting it.
Vigo:
Well, as I just learned today, I guess I have been on the "Warrior diet" since February. :lol
Pretty much juice and water throughout the day, and then I'll have a big meal at night. I lost a 15 pounds right away, but then nothing afterward. :dunno I also often have a harder time sleeping because I have heartburn more often when my body has so much to digest at night. If I ever visit my parents for a weekend, they make me 3 square meals a day. I can't eat much early in the day, and end up gaining weight every time I try.
The only upside is that I am not snacking so much anymore. I have potato chips that have been sitting untouched in my pantry for 6 months now. If I do snack, I grab fruit. Because I eat so much less, I am scrambling to eat the fruit before it goes bad. It's crazy how the temptation for junk food is not a worry anymore.
ChadTower:
Ah, yes, the shmokes "to debate me would be crazy/idiotic/insane/ridiculous" point. Always worth a laugh. :laugh2:
I don't get why it's much of an issue. Eat less in sum total and expend more in sum total. It doesn't matter all that much if you're eating your 1700 calories in one shot or in 17 shots. Same with burning calories. Run 10 miles or run 1 mile 10 times. The difference is not all that much and they both work.
The only difference that actually matters is how a person works the logistics into their lifestyle. That can, and most often is, the difference between success and failure.
