“Fasting between 10PM and 2PM

the next day has kept me in truly great

shape for the past ive years”

“After I’ve smashed a HIIT session irst

Forgoing dinner to cut your kilojoule

intake causes a rise in cortisol, not

only slowing your metabolism but

also disrupting your sleep

Make dinner your largest meal and

Ditching breakfast for a lie-in

lowers your stocks of the reward

chemical dopamine, making an

afternoon sugar binge more likely

Stacking 2930kJ in the morning and

limiting your dinners to 830kJ helps

you lose 2.5 times more weight than

doing the reverse
