Skipping Breakfast Can Lead to Fat Gain
#1

FACT. Without a doubt, bypassing breakfast is violating one of bodybuilding’s golden rules. When you wake up hungry and skip breakfast, levels of the protein hormone leptin, which regulates appetite and metabolism, can change, thus encouraging the body to hold onto body fat. In addition, skipping breakfast facilitates a catabolic (muscle wasting) state, which also causes the metabolism to slow. Think about it: You’ve been sleeping for 7-8 hours (maybe more), which basically means you’ve been fasting. Outside of maybe brushing your teeth, the first you should be thinking of upon waking is getting adequate protein, complex carbs and even some dietary fat. This muscle wasting state is such a concern for bodybuilders that guys like Jay Cutler have been known to wake up in the middle of the night and down a protein shake just to stay anabolic

this could not be farther from the truth. people fast sometimes as much as 20 hours as a anabolic primer, while dieting or bulking. esp. helpful when using peptides and such. this is outdated thinking and the idea of cannabolizing muscle is way overhyped.
you don't have to eat every 2.77773 hours or you'll get small. think about it
