Right up there with the very well-marketed Paleo diet, intermittent fasting (IF) has achieved popular attention in the past year for its potential role in achieving rapid weight loss. But now there is mounting evidence that this approach to eating may have specific benefits for those with diabetes and cardiovascular disease.By Jean Fortunet (Own work) [CC-BY-1.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/1.0)], via Wikimedia CommonsIntermittent fasting can be implemented in various ways. Common approaches are Alternating days spent eating normally with days when calorie consumption is restricted; Taking two days each week and making them ‘fasting days;’ My favorite, proposed by Tieraona Low Dog MD (https://www NULL.facebook NULL.com/pages/Tieraona-Low-Dog-MD/462951583749633): ‘If there isn’t healthy food available, I just don’t eat.’ A mounting body of evidence in animal models and humans points to specific effectiveness of intermittent fasting for weight loss and treatment of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, most recently in a review article in the British Journal of Diabetes and Vascular Disease.  Link to original article here (http://dvd NULL.sagepub NULL.com/content/13/2/68 NULL.full).Compared to more invasive conventional medical methods of treating overweight and its complications, intermittent fasting looks downright reasonable.

Fat Blasting HIIT Workout – Burn Fat up to 24 Hoursby Gale ComptonHigh Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), typically includes a short warm up, followed by 6-10 high intensity exercises, with low intensity recovery periods or rest, and lastly a cool down.  When performing the intensity workout portion, near maximum effort is required.  HIIT usually lasts between 15 – 20 minutes.Keep in mind that HIIT increases the amount of fat burn during exercise routines and continues to do so for up to 24 hours.  The time it takes the body to recover from each training period takes longer than if doing a steady pace while training, which is why caloric/fat burn continues for a period of time after exercise is over.Our workout today will include a warm up, 30 seconds of high intensity training followed by 15 seconds of  rest/recovery periods…we’ll do this for a total of 20 times.
