To be honest, I never counted calories. I have been doing this for so long
that I can go by feel. I always make sure to take in good protein and carbs
at all of my meals. The last time I actually counted calories was getting
ready for the Mr. Phoenix back in 1988. After that, I basically just went
with how I felt and looked and made adjustments acordingly. For some reason,
I have always approached my own training and dieting less scientifically
than I did when I worked with other people.
