Fasting

[striffe]

I have never been interested in fasting but I am learning more about gut health and ways to decrease distention so planning to start fasting. I will start with 16 hours twice per week and see how I find that.

Google on Eat-stop-eat by Brad Pilon on once to twice a week fasting.

i will coincide my fasting (12-16 hours) with my labs. When I fast I dont give a crap about loosing muscle its only 16 hours, its about internal health and giving our organs a rest. I drink water with lemon that's it. I absolutely feel fantastic when i fast and so does in internals. Fasting is not about muscle it about health and giving our bodies a rest. we as body builders consume alot more protein and chemicals and overall calories than anyone else. and at my age 52, 6'4" 280 with my rx use I take internal rest as one of my priorities. Its one of the best and easiest things we as body builders can do for our selves, youngsters take note.

I believe in fasting. I mean many religions use it for spiritual well being but even back in ancient times they understood it had a positive effect on the human body. I intermittently fast and if anything when i do, i actually gain more lean muscle and burn fat off faster. Just my personal opinion amd experience. I wonder if the top 10 IFBB pros ever fast.

I have had good results with intermittent fasting. Eat all your daily calories over 6 hours and fast for the remaining 18 hours.

Good for leaning out IMO

I’ve been thinking about giving the 16/8 fasting a try.....I have about a 35-40 minute drive to work so I just started listening to the audio book Eat Stop Eat.
