If you are like many people I know, after Thanksgiving you feel terrible about the food choices you made and think you have totally blown your “diet.” Some will decide to take matters into their own hands immediately and get back on track. Others may start the spiral downward till New Years and let all their hard work for the year be sabotaged. And then there are those who may have heard about new research on intermittent fasting and think that’s the way to undo the holiday damage.In an unpublished study of 26 obese adults, those who fasted completely every other day and ate with no restrictions the rest of the time lost about the same amount of weight in two months as those who didn’t fast at all. But four months later, after patients were off the intervention, those who had the initial “intermittent fasting” intervention had dropped more pounds and had greater improvements in memory than those on a standard diet. [Tweet this.]Study author William Troy Donahoo, Ph.D., said at a conference that the difference in weight loss may have been due to people continuing to fast after the study ended, or that fasting somehow changes your metabolism.So should we all jump on this bandwagon

Intermittent Fasting and MeI have been trying to lose excess weight for a while now. Been living with a beer belly for a long long time and a galaxy far far away. For the past 4 months I have been doing intermittent Fasting. However the way I have been doing it is just eating anything I want in two meals condensed in an 8 hour window. So far it has been going well since for the past two months I stopped working out and I maintained the loss.However the thing is since its working so well why stop?

Save17Favorite1 This Tabata workout is a fitness cram session! In 30 minutes, you work your entire body and then some. To make the workout even more efficient, we borrow a trick from Chicago-based trainer Lauren Fairbanks and turn the rest period into isometric exercises, which she lovingly calls “frest” for fake rest. Holding these positions works the muscles in a complementary way after the intensity of interval work.

The last week of Shake Up November is upon us. If you will recall; my intentions in creating this challenge was to shed some light on whether or not breakfast is really the most important meal of the day, the difference between “shaking it up” and juicing, the nutritional breakdown of a typical American breakfast, to share recipes and encourage you all to get some quality nutrition in your bellies to start your day off strong, and to create an eBook with shake recipes – But…there’s still one topic I’d like to cover. Intermittent Fasting and whether or not it’s right for you.Last week Monday I wrote about how, what, and when we eat has an affect on our hormones; which can directly affect how efficiently our metabolism is working.

The last week of Shake Up November is upon us. If you will recall; my intentions in creating this challenge was to shed some light on whether or not breakfast is really the most important meal of the day, the difference between “shaking it up” and juicing, the nutritional breakdown of a typical American breakfast, to share recipes and encourage you all to get some quality nutrition in your bellies to start your day off strong, and to create an eBook with shake recipes – But…there’s still one topic I’d like to cover. Intermittent Fasting and whether or not it’s right for you.Last week Monday I wrote about how, what, and when we eat has an affect on our hormones; which can directly affect how efficiently our metabolism is working. Keeping in mind that each person is different, composed of different genetics, some sleep/rest more than others, some exercise/train harder and more frequently than others…this is why it’s so hard to convince the general population that just because you read about a new diet/fitness trend on the internet and that “it gets you results quick and easy” it may not be right for you. The general rule of thumb: If it sounds too good to be true; it probably is.First, I know plenty of people who follow and intermittent fasting protocol and have great success in eating this way, their energy levels are great, they sleep well, they don’t have unusual cravings, and are able to maintain desired leanness and lower levels of body fat

Wouldn’t it be great if we could get fit and healthy in just four minutes a day?You may be thinking that this sounds a little too good to be true.But, contrary to conventional wisdom, the best way to increase fitness and even burn fat is not through performing endless hours of drawn-out cardio exercise.In fact, if you really want to get a better body, then very short intense workouts are actually the way to go, and as little as four minutes a day could well be enough to give you the results you’re after. This could be great news for the millions of us out there who lead busy lives and find it difficult to fit structured exercise into our daily schedule.What Exactly Is Metabolic Training?Metabolic training refers to working at high intensity with structured periods of exercise and shorter periods of rest in an alternating circuit. These types of workouts break convention in that they amalgamate both weight training and cardio in one integrated exercise session. The result is a workout that keeps you seriously fit and boosts metabolism, enabling your body to continue burning fat for up to 48 hours after the workout has actually finished. Fitness Results From Just Minutes, Not HoursWhilst there are various different forms of metabolic training, one of the most popular, named after the Japanese doctor who developed the concept, is called Tabata Training

If you’ve been even remotely involved in the nutrition or fitness community over the past few years, you at least know the term intermittent fasting (IF). Enthusiasts praise its pattern of orchestrated eating and abstaining for everything from improved immunity to mental clarity and, of course, fast fat loss.IF involves periods of alternately eating and fasting. Beyond that, definitions widely vary. Some people do IF for hours each day, while others fast for 24 – 36 hours once or twice a week.
