INTERMITTENT FASTING AND 2 DAILY WORKOUTS
Get the 1st of 2 daily workouts before you have your 1st meal of the day. Wait 12 hours of not eating a meal before your workout to burn maximal body fat for energy. If you wait that long than your body has burned up most of its blood sugar stores through the night and early morning. Your body burns blood sugar first for fuel during a workout before it's able to burn body fat (adipose tissue). Since you have fasted for 12 hours your blood sugar is low and so it only takes a few minutes to burn that up resulting in immediate fat burning for energy.
You will simply workout on an empty stomach again later in the day for your 2nd workout to burn more fat.
Bonus tip - add 100-200 mg of caffeine to your system 30-60 minutes before both workouts to boost energy, increase strength, increase desire, focus, and best of all, to burn more fat! Caffeine will work with the body resulting in a slightly more fat burn during exercise. Do not add sugar or creamer to your caffeine. Try a cup of coffee, caffeine pills, or some green or black tea for example.
POST WORKOUT MEALS FOR BOTH DAILY MEALS
Now, 15-60 minutes after your workout is the best time to consume carbohydrates, protein, and dietary fat. This is important for muscle recovery, preventing muscle loss, healthy hormone production, and best of all, fat loss! If you fail to eat during this window of opportunity you will slow metabolism, increase muscle breakdown, and will be unable to fully replenish muscle energy for your following workout. Make sure your protein is a complete source like eggs, meat, fish, or soy protein. Make sure your carbs come from nature instead of a box. Fruits, vegetables, and oatmeal are great choices. Finally, add healthy fats like nuts, seeds, eggs, and olive oil for overall health including healthy hormone production. Eat foods that are not processed and are in its most natural state. For example brown rice beats white rice. Or 9 grain bread over the highly processed white bread. Find the diet that works well with your particular taste buds as everyone is a unique individual. There is no limit because your only eating twice per day, your energy requirements are higher due to a 2 a day training protocol, and because you are eating only after workouts thus feeding muscles instead of fat (adipose tissue).
Bonus tip - to get even better results eat certified organic labeled food when possible.
