Swings and Thoughts on the Warrior Diet

Today I had a lot of energy and decided to do something even though I had planned today as an off day.

I first heard about the Warrior Diet while reading ETK, because it is the diet that Pavel does. I really didn't think much about it at the time besides "wow, what a gay, pretentious name for a diet." As time went on, I stubbled accross more information about it while lurking on the Dragon Door forum and I found the basic outline of it kind of interesting. I still thought the name was gay, but I went to Border's and picked up a copy anyway.

I read the book in less than a day (not because I was super interested, but because it was an easy read). When I was done I thought it sounded pretty cool. Basically, you have an undereating phase during the day where you can eat some fruits and veggies, and then an overeating phase at night where pretty much anything goes (not exactly, but pretty much). This, according to the author, is based off how the warriors of ancient times would eat and also how wild predators eat. While modeling your eating like this, you can apparently get tons of energy during the day, sleep better at night, and burn fat because of the hormones that will be released. I'll tell you right now, I'm not sold on the "science" of this diet. But then I'm not really sold on the science of any diet so this one really isn't any more far fetched than any other. So anyway, I thought I'd give it a whirl more out of curiosity than anything else.

I've been a "warrior" since friday. I am going to reserve my final judgment for a few weeks so that I give it time to do whatever it is going to do (if anything). I do have some early observations about it though.
1: I do indeed have a lot of energy during the day. This is the exact opposite of what I really thought was going to happen. This may be the placebo effect though, it is too early to say.
2: My workouts seem just as productive as they used to be when I was eating "normally", maybe even more so. Also the exact opposite of what I thought was going to happen.
3: After the first day, I wasn't very hungry during the day. I adapted much faster than expected.
4: Overeating at night is fun as hell!
5: The name is still gay. I'm dreading the day when I'm at work and everyone is eating pizza for lunch and ask me why I'm not eating and I say: "cuz I'm on the Warrior Diet!" Ugh...

I'll keep you posted on how this all pans out.
