I have been reading about intermittent fasting and the one model I am thinking of is the 16hr fast for men. So basically nothing after dinnertime till around lunchtime the next day.
While I want to lose weight (about 10kg) I also do not want to lose what limited muscle I have. The other bit I would like to do, is to 'train' my body to use the fat (as I would like to do some long distance cycle rides).
So is the intermittent fasting the way to go to both lose weight and get my body to burn fat and not muscle?
Also, I am restricting my calories to about 1800 a day, although on the days I cycle I up that a bit to around 2000.
thanks for any advice.
