In this video, I’m going to go over the 5 biggest intermittent fasting mistakes I see people constantly make. Hopefully, this clears up a few things and helps you guys out on your fat loss journey. 1. Don’t Be Afraid Of Hunger Chances are at first you will be hungry, but after a week or so of adapting you'll get used to fasting and hunger won't really be a problem. 2. Too Much Junk Food And Not Enough Micronutrients Although junk food isn’t bad as long as you’re hitting your calories and macros it came tempting to splurge out on unhealthy foods after your break your first. There’s also an increased risk of micronutrient deficiencies if you’re doing a long fasting period as you only have a few hours to eat 1-2 big meals. This increases the risk you’ll miss out on getting all the vitamins and minerals you need if you’re not careful. 3. You’re Staring At The Clock Even if you’re fasting from 12-8 it doesn’t have the be exactly 12-8. Don’t get too obsessed with the times because remember it doesn’t even make a tangible difference to your results. Being 10 minutes early to eat because you have a date with a cute girl/guy is not something to overthink. 4. Not Staying Busy The worst thing you can do is sit there, do nothing and wait for results. You still have to live your life. Just follow the times you’ve set, stay busy and this will help you install fasting as a habit. 5. Don’t Start Too Ambitious Start with a modest fast of 16 hours per day and make your way up to 20 hours if that’s something you want to work up to. Just like you don’t start exercising twice a day you don’t start doing more difficult fasting schedules until you’ve mastered the basics. What Is This Channel About? Hey, I’m Philip.
