“Your biochemistry contains the imprint of the Universe: the micro of the macro. Like
galaxies, the leaves on a branch, a nautilus shell, or even the configuration of your
brain, a "golden mean" echoes through all of Nature's architecture. This Fibonacci
sequence influences your physical peak performance and your very optimal experience
as a human being.” - Scott Sonnon
TACFIT 4 Day Diet Template
The TACFIT 4 Day Diet is a radical departure from typical nutrition plans and fad diets. You may find our
"transitional approach" to nutrition confusing at first, simply because the concept is unfamiliar to you.
Remember: the purpose of the 4 Day Diet is!to sync your biochemistry up with your actual nutritional needs. The 4
Day Diet does not follow!the typical approach of nursing you through energy lulls with carbs and stimulants.
Instead, you are!front-loading your nutrition in advance of the training demand you're about to impose.
The following!pages present!an example of how the 4 Day Diet might look in a typical microcycle. Use it as a
guideline and leave room for flexibility,!variation and modification. This sample has been taken from Coach
Sonnon's personal training diary. Before adopting any new eating plan,!have blood work performed to determine the
presence of vitamin and/or mineral deficiencies,!receive professional guidance on restoring nutritional deficits, and
get clearance from your health care team to proceed.

“We live in a fluid body: a fascial balloon encasing synovium and ground substance
animating and feeding us. Without daily mobility, we have no nutrition. Have the best
diet in the world but without total mobility, we're literally being starved to death.
Mobility is the only way to recover from any activity - sitting or sprinting - and
unearthing the energy entombed in your compressed tissues..” - Scott Sonnon

“Specificity isn't tendency but a law. Every action repeated causes a specific adaptation.
Not just becoming chair-shaped, but even "fitness" itself. Each exercise creates positive
adaptations, but also over-specificities which, if not specifically compensated for,
cause diminishing returns, then plateau, followed by regress, pain, injury illness and
eventually death.” - Scott Sonnon

“There is a myth in sports of taking the day off before a big event. But due to the
nature of our biochemistry, we only make use of a "day off" 3-4 days after; and to have a
truly "peak" performance, we must prime the engine the day before. To climb the peak of
a mountain, prepare the day before.” - Scott Sonnon

“Don't let your muscles lie to you; you'll get better results keeping good form. As
muscles fatigue, you cannibalize mental function, allowing gross motor function
to dominate performance. But exercise is a high skill. Go as far as your technique
can hold. Farther is a waste and danger. Exercise is an act of meditation under
chaos. Hold the technique in your mind and body so the spirit can push to its
unlimited depth.” - Scott Sonnon

• two glasses of water.
• 1430: one glass of black tea or one glass of kombucha tea, cold
• 1530: Joint Mobility Session
• 1630: one glass of water
• 1730: Herbed Grilled Salmon"Recipe: Ingredients: Vegetable oil spray, 1-1/2 pounds boneless salmon filet about 1-inch thick
(large end preferred), 1 lemon (zested), 2 Tablespoons white wine, 1 teaspoon butter, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon onion
powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon
dried dill weed, 1/4 teaspoon Hungarian sweet paprika
• Preparation 25 minutes: Preheat grill to high heat. Make a tray out of a doubled-length of heavy-duty foil large enough for the
salmon filet, by folding a long piece in half and folding up all four sides, with the dull side up. (The shiny side reflects, so you want it
down so as not to burn the food.) Spray the entire inside of the foil tray liberally with cooking spray. Place the foil tray on a platter or
metal tray to transport to the grill.
• Place the salmon filet in the foil tray skin-side down (or boned-side up if it is skinned). Zest lemon over salmon and sprinkle with
white wine. Spread top of salmon with the butter.
• In a small bowl, mix together kosher salt, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon pepper, oregano, basil, and dill weed. Sprinkle the
mixture evenly over the top of the salmon, then top with the sweet paprika.
• Place baking pan with foil tray on hot grill. Transfer the foil tray to the hot grill. Cook in a hot covered grill for 10 minutes per inch of
thickness of the fish filet. Do not overcook or it will be dry and unpalatable. Turning is not necessary. Salmon is done when it turns a
light pink color throughout and feels firm when pressed gently with the back of a fork. Whitefish is done when it turns opaque. This
method works best with large, thick filets. Use a spatula to lift the salmon away from the skin to serve. Garnish with lime slices, if
desired.
• If you are unable to grill the salmon, preheat your oven to 475 F. Leave foil tray on the baking sheet and bake about 15 minutes, or
until done."
• Serve with Roasted Vegetables: Ingredients: 12 oz Carrots peeled, 12 oz Celery root, peeled, 8 oz Turnips peeled, 8 oz Parsnips
peeled, 12 oz Waxy potatoes peeled, 8 oz Butternut squash peeled and seeded, 12 Shallots peeled, 12 Garlic cloves peeled, 4 oz
Olive oil, 1 1/2 tsp Dried thyme, 1 1/2 tsp Coarse salt, 1 tsp Coarsely ground black pepper; Directions Cut the carrots, celery root,
turnips, parsnips, potatoes, and squash into 1-in dice. Place these cut vegetables, plus the shallots and garlic cloves, in a baking
pan. Pour the olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle with the thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss or mix until the vegetables are well
coated with oil. Add more oil if necessary. Bake at 375°F for about 45 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
Turn or stir the vegetables several times during baking so that they cook evenly. Do not allow them to become too browned, or they
may be bitter.
• 1930: 2 handfuls of almonds, one cup of spiced tea, decaf
• 2100: one cup of chamomile tea
