Q: “I’m asking about the question also asked in the h&f.. could you go into more detail about why fat loss slows so much? I know the basic survival thing, your body wants homeostasis, etc.. and I’m sure it’s mostly hormonal, such as Leptin, but beyond that and in more detail I realized when it was asked I really wasn’t sure.”
The explanation in the document should be explicit enough, unless there’s something incoherent you’d like further clarification on (this goes to everyone, of course..)
FYI; Kid = Kcal intake deficiency (gap), t = time (always..), and since I didn’t have enough space to explain in the doc, the graph basically shows how harsher deficits (Kid1>Kid2) have quicker hormonal catabolic throwback, and a smaller anabolic window (This is the real meaning of the term anabolic window, by the way, not the junk you hear about drinking a shake post workout).
The gap between AS(Kid1) and CS(Kid1) shows a smaller anabolic window (pink domain) than AS(Kid2) and CS(Kid2) (orange domain), and oppositely, a greater catabolic overbearing between CS(Kid1) and AS(Kid1) than the Kid2 counterparts (purple domains).
