Fasting, we have all heard of it and most of us have engaged
in it at one time or the other. When you thing about a fast, what usually comes
to mind is a religious exercise to discipline the body through the mind and to
seek spiritual guidance from God. A wonderful side effect of fasting is fat
loss, fasting for whatever reason is a form of calorie restriction as you eat
less than what you normally would on a non-fasting day. Today I would like to
talk about intermittent fasting as a tool for weight loss and muscle maintenance,
if you have been working out religiously and watch your diet and yet those last
few stubborn pounds refuse to come off, then intermittent fasting might just be
the key.
