Strength & Scotch: Get Fitter While Enjoying Life


Feb 23, 2016

Heavey is joined by producer Alice for this week's episode to answer listener Jonathan's questions regarding intermittent fasting. Heavey delves into the details of intermittent fasting (IF): What is it. Who should do it. Who shouldn't. Heavey also discusses his personal experience doing intermittent fasting for a year- from less "hangry" moments, to fat loss and muscle gain. Finally, Heavey discusses the timing for intermittent fasting: when you should train, when you should fast, and if there are any supplements required when training in the AM and fasting all morning.
