By Deborah Singer


How fasting can be incorporated into the process of muscle gain is what makes a lot of people wonder when they hear about it. The reason for this is based on the common knowledge that gaining muscles requires one to have a diet full of calories and progressive heavy lifting and body toning exercises. But this article discusses how fasting for muscle gain has become a popular phenomenon these days.

The normal routine which people do to get muscles involves constant calorie intake, regular heavy lifting and then recovery. The weights lifted are constantly added depending on how much muscles one wants to gain. Apart from the heavy lifting, an individual also does other exercises of the body to tone the muscles.

The nutrition for muscle increase should be composed of high calorie content foods such as; carbohydrates, proteins, fats and even vitamins. As for recovery, an individual will be required to get enough sleep daily and ensure to avoid stressful conditions as much as possible. This is an overview of what one is supposed to for muscle gain.

Fasting is a process where one denies himself food out of free will. This act has been associated with a lot of benefits in the body including getting rid of toxins. Persons can fast during the process of muscle gain whereby an individual only consumes food only when he is training, then during the resting or recovery period, one fasts.

Many people decide to laze around during the recovery period, sleeping and eating a lot of junk during such time. But one can take the rest and fast at the same time. This way, not only will a person be cleansing his body off the toxins, but also burn down the fats. After recovery, the individual will then get back to his eating and exercise routine.

There are those individuals who during the process of muscle gain add fats. For such persons, incorporating fasting in their routine will be very advantageous as the fats from foods will not be allowed to accumulate but rather used up all for energy. The reason for this is the fat stored will be used in energy provision when one is not eating and when eating, all the food nutrients will be used up for muscle gain.

The duration when a person will be going without food varies in a lot of people. There are some routines where people can fast daily whenever they are not exercising. For example, an individual can stay without eating for 16 hours then coincide eating with the heavy lifting sessions for like 8 hours a day (meaning 2meals a day). This routine is very intense and persons should not strain themselves if they cannot do it.

Intermittent fasting is all that has been explained in this article and this routine has gained popularity among many people. Muscle increase and fat burn is now possible. But more research and consultation with a professional trainer should be done by all persons thinking of getting into this routine.
