The Power of Intermittent Fasting
“My fear of stepping out of my comfort zone held me back.”
I used to believe that skipping breakfast meant feeling famished, cranky, and moody, almost ready to faint. But I was completely mistaken!
My fear of stepping out of my comfort zone held me back from starting something that I should have embraced years ago.
Then, I discovered the power of intermittent fasting (IF). It wasn't just about what I ate but the timing of my meals that became my "a-ha" moment, a routine that became integral to my weekly schedule.
IF became my life change, especially as I approached my 40s. It ramped up my metabolism, making fat burning almost effortless.
And the best part? IF is adaptable to your needs, helping balance hormones for better energy, mood, enhancing your sex drive, and I could still LIFT like a bad ass in the gym!
Benefits of IF:
Lowers glucose and improves insulin sensitivity
Increases growth hormone
Enhances protein synthesis
Provides flexibility with food choices
Here's the key: IF must be done correctly to yield the desired results. It's not just about skipping breakfast and eating anything until later. Understanding the science behind IF is crucial for effectively targeting stubborn fat and achieving your fitness goals.
