The zig zag my diet approach pays homage to our evolution and circadian cycle. 
As human beings we have not had a steady supply for very long in our 
evolutionary history. As a lad my parents were roadside actors and i 
encountered all sorts of actors who were starving and often went without food. 
The situation in the cash straped society that i lived in has not changed very 
much. During the great depression of the thirties many a people did not get 
daily bread.

What i am trying to get across here is the fact that the steady flow or supply 
of food has not been the norm in human history. It is a fact that our bodies 
have evolved on famine or feast. We ate to our hearts content after a good hunt 
but then heard our stomachs growl during a famine or after an unsuccessful hunt.

The zig zag my diet phenomen exploits this fact. That is cycling high and low 
calories in order to burn fat and preserve muscle. By cycling calories in a 
high and low fashion we prime the body to burn fat and feed muscle. 

Everyone who  has experienced calorie restricted diet knows that weight loss is 
dramatic at first. You feel energetic as the pounds drop off, but after a while 
you notice that the pounds start to drop off more slowly as the metabolism 
slows down. Some muscle mass is lost during this time and fat loss slows down 
after fourteen days on this calorie restricted diet.

On the other hand anyone who has been on a serious binge has seen the other 
side of the coin. You feel great and maintain or even put on some muscle mass 
for about two weeks. The period of calorie restriction has sparked your 
anabolic guns to put out some serious hormones.

When i eat a lot i gave my body what i need to make the hormones and maintain 
muscle. The effects are short lived and then i started to put on fat.

By alternating low and high calorie days i can take advantage of these hormone 
cycles. I recomend staying on a low calorie diet for no more than three days.

Lets say my  maintence level is 2800 calories a day. Then my mum puts on a 
feast andi want to have 6000 calories on turkey day. 2200 calories three days 
before and three days after will keep me in the safe zone. This method lets me 
stay lean while Tom, Dick and Harry just get fatter and fatter.

The zig zag my diet method lets me turn holiday feasting into a vital part of 
my strategy. The zig zag my diet method can work for bulking up muscle as well. 
This is achieved by a couple of low calorie days after three high calorie days 
keep fat gain to a minimum.
