What about Grazing All Day Like a Cow Does?

[curling]

I know about the ole 6 small meals a day. What about eating those more spread out all day. In otherwards every hour or hour an half eat something else but just small portions. Afterall that is what cows do and us(bodybuilders) or alot like cows because we are trying to put on alot muscles fortunately for us canibalism is illegal.

So what do ya'll think?

if you split up your 6 meals and snack on them all day that would be fine. The reason for eating every 2-3 hours is because thats the average time digestion takes. Grazing, probably wouldn't effect you that much to warrent a change. However it wouldn't hurt if you can do that. Most people, although they would like to eat all day, can't do that.

Yea I see what you are saying. I own my own business so my employees can't yell at me for doing it.

nothing wrong with eating every 1 and 1 half hrs as long as your digestion is smooth

i agee, also, don't regurgitate and re-chew your food like a cow does!!!

Sorry, I couldn't resist!

A lot like cows?

We are nothing like cows, they're not trying to put on muscle, they're dumb animals and just eat grass all day. They have 3 stomachs and regurgitate their food. They only eat grass, try eating like that and seeing how much muscle you put on. I don't see any relationship to cows.
But anyway, the idea of eating all day is good, if you can fit it into your schedule. It probably would be optimal for putting on muscle mass, but not necessarily for health reasons. Also, it would be a bitch to prepare food since things like work and school get in the way during most of the day in most of our lives. if you manage to pull it off and have to luxury to do it, more power to you. Paul Burton talked about it at the Gen-mag site, he's a successful competitor and it worked for him.
