High-Intensity Interval Training and Intermittent Fasting - A Winning Combo for Fat Reduction and Optimal Fitness- November 02, 2012 Mercola
- When combined, high intensity exercise and intermittent fasting can be a winning strategy to bring your fitness to the next level
- Recent research demonstrates that restricting carbohydrates can help burn calories more efficiently and increase muscle oxidative potential even in highly trained athletes
- High intensity interval training has also been shown to burn more calories in less time
- When you exercise while fasting, it essentially forces your body to shed fat
- If the thought of fasting for 12-18 hours is too much, you can get many of the same benefits of fasting and exercise by simply skipping breakfast and exercising first thing in the morning when your stomach is empty
