what's up guys it's your boy Matty, Matt from Macro Lean and in this video
I'm gonna be talking about the best Intermittent Fasting protocol for weight
loss. but before we get into that video if you've just arrived to the Macro Lean
channel welcome, welcome to the tribe... but I'm just gonna suggest a little
suggestion that you smash that big red subscribe button and that Bell button get
notified every time I drop new content, mixing it in, and new videos. but let's
get into this topic because this is an important one right! A lot of people are
tracking their macros, tracking their calories they've come across Macro Lean,
they've heard about me waffling on about intermittent fasting. like "I need to do
intermittent fasting but what's the best approach?" is it 16/8? is it 18/6?
couldn't remember that there, is it 20/4? there's many different approaches... the
bottom line is there is NO best approach because what matters before fasting
is hitting the right amount of calories and macros before the day is out. Now
fasting makes that so much easier that's why I fast, that's why I advise all my
clients to fast. Because when you need to lose body fat and lose weight you need
to be in a calorie deficit with a good ratio of macros simple as that. No
getting around it! Now if you reduce your calories straight away right off the bat and you're
eating breakfast, you're going to notice that reduction in calories. It's gonna be
grittier, it's gonna be harder. But if you start intermittent fasting, pushing that
first meal back to midday or even later or whatever. I fast normally for 18-20
hours a day. You're gonna enjoy your calories and macros more in the evening,
afternoon or whatever. What does that mean? That means you finish the day more
satisfied, it makes the calorie deficit easier. So as a rule of thumb I'll advise
doing at least a 16/ 8. 16 hours fasting, eight hours eating window. But that being
said if you have to break your fast a bit earlier to make sure you hit your
calories and macros you can do that too. There's no magic number! Don't get into
your head 16 hours is the golden number or 18 hours or 20 hours or whatever. All
that matters is hitting your calories and macros before the day is out. In line
with your calorie deficit and a good amount of protein, fats and carbs. And
using intermittent fasting as a tool, as an application to make that calorie deficit
easier. Yes there are good tag on health benefits when
doing any type of intermittent fasting. Increased human growth, autophagey,
(cleaning out the cells), using body for fuel in the fasting window. But
really most of you want to lose body fat, lose weight and how do we lose weight?
calorie deficit and track your macros and have tools like intermittent fasting to
make it easier. So the best approach, the best protocol for fasting and for weight
loss is the one that makes your calorie deficit easier. If 16 hours is good for
you and 8 hours eating is good for you then do that. If 20 hours of fasting is good
for you and 4 hours of eating is good for you? do that! All that matters is by
the end of the day, have you hit your calories and macros and if you have with
consistency you are going to get results. But let me know your thoughts in the
comments below guys. What type of intermittent fasting protocol are you
