My Bet
So when a fellow trainer, who is 24 years old, challenged me to have a six by the beginning of summer, I have to say I found motivation. The last time I was relatively lean was two years ago when my wife and I went Thailand. Whereas, I went down to around 10%, my wife was leaner than me. At 5’3”, her weight bottomed out at 105; she certainly was below 15% and perhaps close to 12%. We ate the typical 5-6 meals a day consisting of mostly fibrous carbs and lean protein. Unless I was doing the Lyle McDonald’s Ketogentic Diet, which is a pain, miserable and totally not good for my GI system, I could never get below 10% and get rid of the stubborn lower back fat. But, I did not want to go into carb depletion and re-composition and I was pretty sure my wife would divorce me when my mood would pendulum like a run away grandfather clock on the Keto Diet led me to choose intermittent fasting to win my $50 bet.
Over the next few weeks, I will be writing about my experience on the Intermittent Fasting diet and talk to you about the science behind it. Stay tuned!
