Building Better Athletes: Intermittent Fasting

January 14, 2014

For even more great, FREE material, sign-up for BBA updates here ————————->I’ve been meaning to write about Intermittent Fasting (IF) for a while now, but just haven’t gotten around to it, but since it has quickly become a favorite way of eating for many people and myself, I figured I had to set some time aside to knock this one out. I’ve been following IF protocols on and off for about 2-years now, and definitely like some aspects of IF. Basically IF is extending the window (fast) in which you do not eat. Most people eat throughout the day, and typically stop eating around 7-8pm and start eating again the next day between 6-8am. So the typical fast for people is around 10-12 hours each day.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
