Yup, I get it, I understand what ur saying, I eat and eat and don't gain. To me this says a Leptin resistance, stress related?, sure, that makes sense.

Well, i see a few ways actually, 3-4 days out of the week you eat 175-200 more calories, e.g. 4-5 ounces more of a salmon portion. (The extra calories are not from carbs).
Then within the next few hours (after digestion) perform a high intense workout. 15 minutes. This way Leptin is released immediately and not stored (thereby eliminating the resistance). After the workout, Then supplement with NBE to synthesize the new enegy (cells) into the stimulated endocrine system.
Hmmm....
So, I've read (somewhere on T-nation) that HIIT (and HIT, high intensity training, e.g. lifting heavy) will cause fat to be released - but there's nothing to stop it from being re-absorbed into fat cells.
Now, to burn it, they actually suggested some steady-state "cardio" (a low heart rate, not the breakneck speeds) would work.
But for us.... We who want curves in other spots... Can we perhaps leverage this by performing the HIIT or a finisher after a workout? E.G., sets of Burpees following our workout, and then maybe stretching, but no more exercise. We then maybe get the triglycerides we've dumped into the blood to re-congeal in fat cells in a feminine form?
Might be good to try. Thoughts?
