And so it begins - my year of the MAF method

I have been reading about and dabbling in the LCHF diet space for a couple of years. I know that carbs make me fat and I have been to see a kinesiologist who has tested me and I am carb intolerant.

I have read about the MAF method and the results that Mark Allen achieved yet despite this I have not found a plan that works for me or the motivation to give it a go.

Well now is the time. At 88.5 kg I am at my heaviest for at least 10 years and my time at Mooloolaba was slower than I was happy with.

I know I need to lose weight to be a good runner.

So here is the aim.

To do 12 months of MAF training and eating and lose weight to get to 8% body fat and what ever weight that is.

Method:
To follow the MAF method of training and use the plans from Nick Carling.

Goal:

I will race Port Mac in the best shape of my life with a body trained to cope with the demands of the race using fat not carbs as my primary food.
