006: Live Longer and Get Shredded by Eating Less Often

The ancient practice of fasting has become mainstream again. Is it just another weight loss trend, or is there more to fasting than simply starving yourself? Determined to fully understand the benefits of fasting, I experimented with variations of intermittent fasting and a 120-hour water fast. The results? In a matter of weeks, fasting changed my life. I eliminated brain fog and daily energy lulls, increased energy and productivity, got shredded, and became a happier and healthier person. Fasting has become a critical part of my optimization plan by improving my health, happiness, and performance.
