William Shewfelt #4: Protein-to-Energy Ratio For Fat Loss And The Benefits Of Being A Generalist With Disparate Peak Performance Goals

William Shewfelt returns to the show for a historic fourth time to discuss the hot topic of losing excess body fat quickly and efficiently. William has locked into a highly effective strategy that is working for his clients at 21daycarnivoreshred.com . It revolves around prioritizing protein intake (since of course that is the body’s most critical dietary objective) by consuming foods that have a favorable protein-to-energy ratio. Protein also happens to be highly satiating, so you are enjoying delicious meals without deprivation and suffering from calorie restriction diets. Protein also has a high thermic effect, meaning if a significant portion of the protein calories you consume (some studies say up to 20%) are allocated toward metabolizing the protein. As Mark Sisson says often, there is a legitimate argument that you don’t even need to count protein calories, because they are used for building block purposes instead of calorie energy. William is a high energy guy who follows his passions at all times. As you learned from his first Get Over Yourself podcast show , he has an extremely disciplined, methodical, and quantified approach to pursuing goals that he has applied in numerous disparate areas, from writing, online coaching, acting and also his latest passion of music. Listen to his Disfruta single on YouTube! You will love his enthusiasm and youthful energy. Who knows, maybe the protein-to-energy ratio concept will give you the breakthrough you are looking for in fat loss! Read more in his book with Dr. Ted Naiman called The P/E Diet .
