The MiniKeto Meal Plan

Careful manipulation of insulin levels and muscle glycogen stores, combined with H.I.T., and Yo-Yo dieting, can promote both muscle hypertrophy and fat loss.

Your energy requirements will likely differ. I use my BMR for the 1800-2000, my AMR for 2000-2500, and AMR + 500 to get 2500-3000.

At least 50% of calories are consumed in the first 6 hours of the day.
There is no limit to the frequency of meals (e.g. eat every hour or two if or when able), but the minimum is 5-6 meals over a 12-18 hour period.
