Hello Everybody,
As many know, I'm a big fan of Ori Hofmeklers and the intermittent fasting approach. Recently though I've been yearning for a change. It's difficult to remove this emotional attachment I have to the IF eating style. Maybe it's because the Warrior Diet is what got me exercising back in 2011? Or because the marketing just has me? Is it nostalgia or familiarity?
The IF eating style isn't making me feel particularly good anymore, yet I still continue to follow it day in and day out. The Warrior Diet makes sense to me, resonates with me but it just isn't "working" anymore. Something is just off.
I'm giving renaissance periodization another shot with my 1:1 coach who I have 5 months left with until I need to reup with them. Their tagline is "Science is Stronger" which is a comforting thing but requires consistency and trust on my part. It's a scary departure from the familiarity of IF and the Warrior Diet. I have a fear that through following this science based and frequent eating plan that I'm giving up longevity or autophagy somehow. I have a fear of not living as long and as well as I can. Is this even rational? Am I too caught up in the rhetoric of IF or overemphasizing it?
I look forward to everyone's advice and feedback.
Thank You, Adam Mundorf
