I just got my numbers back from my nutrition coach I've worked with for the past three months. These numbers are caliper measurements, so we're just looking at an overall trend or delta from beginning to end.
Chin - 5.4/5.2
Cheek - 10.6/9.6
Tricep - 17/14.2
Subscap - 11/9
Midax - 18/11.6
Iliac - 15/11.6
Umbilical - 28/17
Total - 105/78.2 = -26.8
I've seen the most difference in my midsection. I feel like I've never looked better. Oh and also, please excuse me while I AW this picture of me looking jacked.
During the time I've worked with him, I've seen 25# increase on back squat, 10# increase on clean, 15# increase on jerk, 0:20 improvement on 1000m row and 15# increase on weighted pull-up. So yeah, in conclusion, he's my hero.

Damn, girl! I want those results. Not so much the body stuff, more the performance gains. So remind me, I need to eat paleo plus potatoes, and I will be as buff as you, right?

Hahaha and rice. Can't forget the rice!
No but seriously the biggest two things are food timing (low carb throughout the day, plenty of carbs post workout) and post-workout nutrition.
Wow! That's awesome! you look great, too? Any secrets you can share? . More about this food timing?
What ended up being the sweet spot for me was huge protein numbers (more than 1g per pound of body weight), the vast majority of my carbs immediately post workout, and fat to satiety but not being so liberal with it. So I'd eat pretty low carb during the day and then get 125-150g immediately post workout. I've been supplementing with D3 in the morning and ZMA at night. I was using a probiotic for awhile but had allergy issues with it so I discontinued.
