Fasting: Fast Track to Fat Loss Sep 19, 2020

by Josh Bryant , Adam benShea

( 49 )

$9.99

Eat the foods you love or stay lean.

This played-out dichotomy has plagued dieters since the first fad diet in the 1830s and it has only become worse.

Who wants to give up milk shakes and fried rice?

If you want to get lean while indulging in some of your favorite foods along the way, welcome to intermittent fasting.

Look, you already fast daily. Depending on your sleep patterns, most people fast 10-12 hours a day. By extending that window by a few short hours, you will achieve greater fat loss, improve health markers, and become mentally sharper.

This will all be achieved by doing less, not more.

World religions and great philosophical traditions both include the universal element of fasting!

So, whether your goal is to shape that dad bod into a physique of raw steel and sex appeal that turns the heads of coeds at your local community pool, improve your mental acuity, or take your spiritual awareness to the next metaphysical plane, you need to give "Fasting: The Fast Track to Fat Loss" a go. This plan is backed by science and proven in the trenches.

Tactical strongman training is not a pie in the sky theory. Our programs have worked with world strongest man competitors, NFL players, and some of the sharpest tactical athletes on the front lines.

Together, the traps and neck serve as a foundational centerpiece for a no frills, no-nonsense physique. They are YOUR shield.

With this book we provide you with the exact prescription to build your shield. Every exercise, every set, and every rep is spelled out.
