Synchro :: Intermittent Fasting: Improve Energy, Mental Performance …

Unquestionably, the coolest diet hack to come across my radar in the past few years is a technique known as Intermittent Fasting (IF). IF has a small, but cult-like following that is growing in numbers at an impressive rate. If would probably be growing even faster if it wasn’t so completely puzzling for most people that encounter it. To the uneducated, intermittent fasting probably doesn’t look that dissimilar from simple starvation

Building Muscle Slowly

This post was created simply because I was feeling sorry for myself this morning.
I wasn’t making any gains. Lifting weights was stupid. All I was doing was maintaining – complete waste of my time.

(Yes, I was being a baby)
So I took my measurements… then compared them to all of my older measurements.
At first, it looked like I had confirmed my suspicion – no growth ever! …But on further inspection I realized that I had been making slow but steady improvements all along.
I then pulled out the records of my DEXA scans at plugged them into a new row…
As you can see, I was mistaken – Slow but steady gains, slow but steady improvements in my circumferences.
This is why we keep measurements – because without measurements we are just guessing. And weight on its own is a terrible way to measure progress… On each and every one of these measurement days […]

And weight on its own is a terrible way to measure progress… On each and every one of these measurement days I weighed somewhere between 170 and 180 pounds, but weight fluctuates so much it’s really not a valuable measurement tool unless it is accompanied by your circumference measurements.So lesson learned -Our eyes (and emotions) can deceive us… don’t trust them Over the last 3+ years with Eat Stop Eat, How Much Protein and Adonis Styled Workouts I’ve been slowly adding muscle 5 pounds of muscle makes a big difference. I’ve managed to keep my body fat levels fairly stable (as measured by DEXA and my waist circumference)

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.
