Kelly's Pantry: Intermittent Fasting Can be a Good Way to Lose …

January 10, 2014

If you read health magazines or watch shows that discuss weight loss, you have probably heard the new craze of Intermittent Fasting (IF). Basically, there is no real definition for IF, and many health experts, doctors, and book authors define it differently. I, personally, define fasting as not eating or drinking anything besides water for at least 24 hours.I am okay with people fasting since I think it is a natural process that the human body is meant to deal with. A lot of how our body stores fat and how the metabolism works is attributed to our genetic makeup tracing it back to our ancestors. These people typically went through days where they consumed adequate calories, then some days where they had very few calories.

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.
