2009-10-23 New Block Prescription

I have realized that as my lean body mass has been changing (my body fat dropped as my muscle increased) I needed to recalculate my zone prescription. When I first calculated my zone prescription using the formula and table in “Mastering the Zone” I calculated that I needed a 16 block prescription. At the last bod pod my lean body mass was 161, using an activity factor of 0.8 my protein prescription should now be 18. From playing with the carb prescription 3/4 works about right for me so I will try the following zone prescription for the next couple of months.
