Deidre:

Art posted the following to the list on Nov 27, 2000:

"I have made new additions to the technology of Power Law training that
Robert refers to and they will also be in the condensed version to be
available. I have developed new ways to recruit fast twitch muscle fiber in
those muscles where they are most abundant. Based on a review of most of
the caloric deprivation literature, and an understanding of the episodic
nature of eating in a natural environment, I have also found ways to time
meals and exercise so as to trigger hormone drives that give the essential
benefits of extreme caloric deprivation (the only known intervention shown
to extend life) without the cost of chronic hunger and loss of lean body
tissue and metabolic rate."

Its nuggets like this(but not limited to) that 1) prompted me to subscribe
to this list earlier this year, and 2) hoard all of the Border's gift
certificates I receive on my birthday, etc. so I can not only buy a copy of
the upcoming book for myself plus additional copies for friends & family.

I do believe Art has mentioned at least one tactic involving meal timing
that probably springs forth from consideration of CR: waiting for some
time(45 mins?) after an workout before consuming a meal.
