Got you back, boss.

Btw, this may be of use for your 2016 goal. Copy pasta from some emails.

A couple interesting articles from this guy, and his "lean gains" (intermittent fasting) guide.

-- where I began learning about this. Guy seems to know a lot about diet/fitness. I confirmed a lot of the info is legit based on research papers. There are many links to other articles he wrote that are good, like this one:
http://www.leangains.com/2009/12/fasted-training-boosts-muscle-growth.html
http://fitness.mercola.com/sites/fitness/archive/2013/01/18/intermittent-fasting-approach.aspx
-- This guy has a good article which is pretty informative. Fills in some of the other details the leangains guy doesn't touch on. Working out fasted boosts muscle growth as well - which subsequently increases metabolism. Fasting increases metabolism slightly for the first 3 days and has no negative effects on your muscles for the first 24 hours.

just a start but the other article I sent on Saturday has a few more details including some information about how fasting is beneficially for the brain as well.
Generally, the idea is that our genetics were selected at a time when we didn't eat all day throughout everyday. Hunger increases metabolism slightly and actually induces the formation of new brain cells. I suppose a genetic selection for a boosted "last chance" to get food is a good theory. More brain power to exploit surroundings + athleticism.
