One way to get lean faster, is to combine dieting protocols that have similar goals, to further increase a calorie restriction, which will result in greater weight loss. [1-3].While intermittent fasting (IF) is *not* any more effective for weight loss than continuous dieting when calories are similar, it is a practical means of dieting for some. [4, 5] By restricting the time period in which a dieter consumes food, they are much more likely to be in a calorie deficit.
