5 Critical Intermittent Fasting Errors That Ruin Your Fat Loss (Thread):

Over the past few months or so, I've noticed guys making BIG mistakes with Intermittent Fasting.

These will keep you >15% body fat.

They will result in inconsistencies.

They will make life difficult.
Mistake 1: Only Doing IF 5 Days Per Week

If you insist on having breakfast on the weekends, then you're also insisting on staying >20% bf.

You will not get ripped by extending your eating window on the weekends and consequently eating a large surplus.

Won't work.

Next:
Mistake 2: Expecting IF To 'Make Up For' Poor Food Choices

IF will make it EASIER to eat less calories.

This is assuming that these calories are at least 'decent'.

If they're complete garbage, then IF won't save you.

You still need to focus on meat + veggies.

Next:
Mistake 3: Eating Too Many, Small Meals

Grazing is for cows, feasting is for kings.

Smaller meals don't keep you full for long, won't satisfy you psychologically, and lead to a scarcity/deprivation mindset.

Not good when you want to get ripped...
Instead, you want 2 LARGE meals, with the largest being in the evening @ 6pm.

The first main meal is where MOST of your protein is consumed. The the rest, plus all your carbs for the day will come at the second main meal.

You don't want to be eating small meals/snacking...
Mistake 4: Snacking

This is largely a result of number three above.

Uncontrollable snacking is arguably the most common mistake of all.

It's a very good way to get loads of BS calories in, without being satisfied.

It makes fat loss VERY difficult.

More:
Snacking makes you:

+ Too food focused throughout the day
+ Less disciplined
+ Less satisfied from food

The good news is that if you get your meals 1 & 2 right, you won't even dream of snacking.

Next:
Mistake 5: Thinking Of IF As 'Skipping Meals'

Again, this is a classic 'scarcity mindset' suggestion, and it's wrong.

You're not skipping anything.

You're re-allocating your morning calories (when you don't need them) towards a better time that covers your social life etc.
This re-allocation of calories will essentially stop the average person from screwing up their diet 30% of the time, and bring it down to about 10% of the time (for example).

VERY important.

Diet adherence underpins everything.
