The 5/2 diet Intermittent fasting my review

August 7, 2012

In an odd sort of way, watching the latest BBC Horizons documentary on ‘Eat, Fast Live Longer‘ was a lot like watching myself discover fasting all over again.
Dr Michael Mosley, the show’s host begins by trying to combat the ‘ravenous affects of aging’.
His solution? Fasting
But not just fasting. Intermittent Fasting.
And… Not just intermittent fasting. Eat Stop Eat style fasting…Almost.
To start the show off Dr Mosley states that traditionally exercise has always been the way to ‘stay healthy’. The more the better. In general I agree with the recommendation of exercising for overall health benefits, but with certain caveats — namely the ‘more is better’ part. As we know, chronic exhaustive exercise can lead to systemic low grade inflammation — definitely something we want to avoid.

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.
