Start Fasting (Choose A Method)

So hopefully by now, you are aware of the amazing benefits associated with periodic fasting.  Today well take a quick look at various ways to go about your fasts that will work for any ones schedule.  Why will it work for any ones schedule?  Simple, there aren't any rules!

To make things simple for you though and to give you some basic ground rules from which to build your fasting regime from, lets begin with a foundation.  In order to have a stable method for either losing weight, maintaining a healthy weight, teaching your cells to become efficient protein users or simply extending your life span, you MUST have a general guide as a foundation.

Even if your foundation is to be sporadic with your fasting, plan how long you will fast for within a given period of time and then you can be sporadic and fast whenever you feel like it.  If you don't at least block out a time (Say once every 3 months) for a week long for or even a 3 day fast, it may never get done.

So here's the foundation that I use.  Feel free to use this for yourself, or modify it all you want to. 

Here goes...
There are 52 weeks in a year.  There are 4 seasons in a year.  This is simple math, so no need to reinvent the wheel here.  Lets start with dividing 52 by 4.  This will give us 13.
We take this 13 week period and call it a block.  We will complete 4 blocks in a year.  If as I mentioned above you like to be sporadic with fasting, you now have 4 - 13 week blocks in which to "randomly"  fast a given number of days.

Here's a better idea...Or should I say several.
Lets start with a schedule for BUSY BODIES.  Those working long hours and potentially with high stress and or high physical labour jobs.  These people cant afford to fast more than 60 days a year and if your always working, you cant afford not to eat for more than say 24-36 hours per week or it may interfere with your work performance.
This fasting method is for you:

52 Days of Fasting (Best for underweight, skinny people with busy, stressful, physical labor jobs)
Tips:  You don't have to fast the same day every week.  Allow yourself to be free with this fasting method, but make sure you do it once every single week!  A trick is to start a fast at say 3pm on one day and break it at 3pm the following day.  If you try to do 12pm-12pm, you may end up fasting 36 or more hours.
