Intermittent fasting 100% works. I eat between noon and 8:00 pm around my work schedule. Energy levels are up, weight is down, overall mood improved and I don’t feel like I’m missing anything.
Henry Rollins is the man. I saw a talking show of his like ten years ago, and I emailed him to say I thought his show was great.......And he emailed me back!!! He's awesome.
Heck yeah! How you doing man? Hope it is still going well for ya, I had a similar experience watched Henry Rollins, Jocko Willink, and David Goggins I have lost 12 kilograms
Honestly it has been an up and down of around 3 kg the last few months, the pandemic did cause a few days of stress eating or extra work hours that require a meal to go that usually wound up meaning fast food. Knowing how to order fast food without the extra carbs helped keep me on track with my goals. Anyways I think we are finally realizing that middle ground of a series of simple changes for a healthy life without going to a radical shift from the standard american diet that resembles scenes from the idiocracy movie or supersize me to radical vegans with all of their impossible meat and soylent green like that of a Huxley novel or some other. Done with rambling - yall stay healthy!
I've always found Rollins so interesting. His honesty and expressiveness when he speaks about something. Almost like a tortured soul at times in which he's too smart for this universe, yet he's still vulnerable
Musician, comedian, author, actor... he’s a Renaissance man if anything. Has the intellect, whit, and charisma to back it up too. Seems like a great man
Ya Henry is what we like to call a pseudo intellectual he often sounds like a guy who should be doing infomercials he has good parts to him but the rest sounds like pseudo drival
please don't be mad at me for talking about myself but I had a hard/heavy heartbeat for 15 years..a BIG pain in the ass. Doctors said my heart was fine..I finally did intermittent fasting for 18 out of 24 hours and it went away. Turned out I had been overstimulating my Vagas Nerve for so many years by eating too often. IF sure can fix A LOT of lingering problems.
Same here. last meal 1/4 pm. next meal 2/4 pm next day. contray to "popular wisdom", no breakfast is good for you. i on 1 meal a day for 2 years. once body adjusts, better sleep, mental clarity and hi energy levels. lots of research on it.
Meat lobbyists are trying to hide the dangers of excessive meat consumption for instance, same as for diary products. Not to mention how costy both tend to be. This is NOT advertisement for veganism. This is just a few facts about what eat. (Because veganism mindset is stupidly restrictive imo)
I've been doing OMAD and 24, 48, 72 hour fast every few weeks and have lost 36 lbs and restored my weight to were it should be for my age and height. These weird palpitations I had in my heart, gone. Intestinal issues I was dealing with, gone. My skin looks way more youthful than before and I get advanced mental clarity episodes on the days that I do 24hr or more fasts. Unbelievable.
Get outta my Head! LOL. Seriously, I hear you. I have been intermittent fasting off and on for over a year and I actually want to work out, get off my fucking ass and get something done every time I stick to it
Ive been experimenting with fasting for 4 years now. Intermittent fasting took me from 247 lbs down to 186 at one point. I started with 16/8's and 20/4's and now i'm fasting for close to 48 hours on weekends. Unless you're doing a heavy labor job for 8 hours, you do not need to eat 3 big meals a day.
absolutely! all you have to do is look at our general population and you'll know that. missing one meal or two will not kill you. if anything it's more beneficial.
I hate it when people dont eat for a while & moan that they are starving, yr not starving people in deprived places in the world are starving. We live in a over consumption world
This is because after a certain age, say 40, the body and metabolism changes. Slot of Indian Gurus are teaching that two meals a day is enough after 40. I can feel it. Sometimes I have just one meal around 11am-12pm and just light snack whenever hungry. Like he says I'm much lighter, more energy and feel better. Digestion takes a lot of energy.
Yes, but we used to be very malnourished back in the day. ( Prior to 1950s) depending where in the United States. That's why they add vitamins to flour,bread, etc.
@Ben Dover Of course you need to eat more if you physically exert yourself more. I train every day except for saturday, I weigh 240lbs, and if I had only two meals a day I'd be skinny as hell and I'd probably have less energy to work out. On the other hand, if I worked an office job and didn't train, I'd probably be ok with just two meals. To each their own =)
I'm doing 16 hours fast, and I feel great. I compete in masters bodybuilding. I'm 70 years old at 180 lbs with body fat measurements by DEXA scan in the 9% to 11% range. I have been on the ketogenic diet two and a half years.
I did intermittent fasting for years and didn't even know it, that's probably why I stayed so lean all my life. Started doing it again about a year ago.
Did the same thing for years just because I didn't have time to eat in the morning and didn't want to go outside and didn't have enough time at lunch, either.
damn you guys bringing up HS. i did the exact opposite. i ate only during HS. nutrition and lunch and pretty much didn't eat until the next day at school.
Diana M that’s not intermittent fasting.you were probably skinny not lean.lean is slim with muscle tone.if you didn’t eat for all those hours you will have muscle wastage hence looking skinny. It’s not healthy
Absolutely, I was a bit sceptic about Intermittent Fasting first, but since March (Covid lockdown), I have been doing the 16/8 and seen great results (been hitting running PBs, getting back to long distance running). A staple part of my diet over past couple of years has been drinking Yerba Mate tea - and this really helps keeping off the hunger, as well as being great for metabolism. When you do eat, I imagine the foods we intake during the 'eating window' will be absorbed by the body more so, so it encourages me to eat better foods. I usually have my breakfast foods as my 12pm lunch.
@@thecouplechallenge7110 hey, no worries! I might have a coffee once in a blue moon just for taste, or with an occasion desert, but not really as a ‘pick me up’, I think to be drinking Yerba Mate and coffee daily might be a bit of a caffeine overload. Yerba Mate comes from South America (mainly Argentina/Paraguay/Uruguay/Brazil), it comes in loose leaves, so you will need a bombilla (filtered straw) to drink it. A lot of professional footballers from there swear by it, inc Messi, Suarez and Co! You can hopefully find it pretty easy online from wherever you are! :)
I had a colonoscopy a few weeks back, and part of the prep, after having no fiber for a week before, the 24 hrs before is a strictly clear fluid diet... I don't believe I've ever gone a day without some sort of food. I was really concerned I'd end up completely hangry and twitchy. I was shocked to discover that my boby had zero problem. It was actually no big deal... but then I was really psyching myself up about it all. Funny, often times it never turns out as bad as we make it out to be in our minds. I ended up feel really good, and lighter. The intermittent fasting thing now intrigues me.
I can confirm everything Rollins has said here. I work from home full time and get sucked into "the zone" on a daily basis. I never eat breakfast and by the time I'm ready to step away from my home office for some lunch, it's already around 3PM. In fact, I'm not even cognizant of the fact I haven't had lunch due to feeling hungry, it's simply just a "oh wait, I haven't eaten today". It has put me into this state of mind where I'm now totally fine with waiting until dinner and eating whatever I want. Interestingly enough, when it does come time to eat that first meal of the day, which is dinner, my brain tells me that I need to eat an entire buffet and then halfway through a plate of food, I feel very full. Overall, I eat MUCH less, it's really strange.
Your stomach adapts to how much food you eat. I did the same thing when I graduated high school and started working. It was much easier for me to skip breakfast and eat light lunches if no lunches at all. I'd come home hungry as fuck thinking I needed ten plates of food when a half of a plate would fill me up because my stomach shrank.
Yeah,I was prescribed adderall & it made me feel the exact same way,I would forget to eat or when the last time was but it was kinda disconcerting to not eat all day AND not notice. I figured it had to be terrible for me since I didn't see myself as overweight to begin with,but doc watched it & said it usually fades. Maybe It all leveled out because it dimmed the urge to auto-eat so many meals conditioned into us?I only eat like twice a day now & hold a healthier weight even long after abandoning the script,but sadly without it I may have never realised the excess I ate & carried around. My brother is about the same age & avg size,but with his continued poor eating he now has to deal with full blown diabetes at 36. Not recommending using drugs for a quick diet at all,that just brought it to my attention.Having two people with some fame taking the time to make some useful points & offer tips that help them and may help others is what really gets the needed attention.
2 years ago I started fasting 12/12. The first week was the hardest because the body was not used to skipping that much food, but it helped me a lot, I lost 50kg in 9 months with regular exercise (4 times a week, cycling ). Now two years later I'm still doing it,
@@MrWarhead16 Hello there, i have started a 16/8 fasting since Nov 2021 and it helped me to maintain my weight. My recommendation is to listen to the Huberman Podcast, he has a full episode explaining the pros and cons of fasting.
I’m fasting 23.5 hours a day, eating the other .5. Keto foods only. I’m haven’t lost any muscle, but probably 20 lbs of fat. My workouts are great! 5 miles of cardio daily with weight training immediately after. Love it! P.S. I’m a 50 year old firefighter.
I do 22/2 intermittent fasting, meaning I have a 2 hour eating window each day, which, due to my work schedule is generally from 8 to 10pm. So basically I skip the morning and noon meals, and eat a big dinner in the evening. It's not hard at all once you get used to it.
MADGUNS FOREVER™ totally! I traveled to China regularly and I would carry peanut butter and almonds in my backpack just in case the meal I was offered did not “look right” 😂
I've noticed when touring in Europe it's mainly snacking through the day then one main meal. Usually dinner. I wonder if that's from what they've inherited from many years.
I found this little documentary on the Levi’s 501 Jean. Henry Rollins was talking about the clothes he was wearing and how he would destroyed jeans. It was just really compelling to watch him. A likeable, powerful artist!
Lost weight on an overseas business trip (18 lbs) mostly because of dietary restrictions & concerns. A nibble for breakfast & lunch, and a meal @ night. JUST like Henry said, the western 3 meals/day started putting weight back on. Now 2 meal replacement shakes/day & dinner. I also have slower digestion so it helps. Henry said that too.
Also been doing the 16/8 intermittent fasting.. Get up at 5 am each day , hit the gym and don’t have my first meal until 11 am.. Your body is an amazing machine that can adopt to anything as long as you take the time to train it .. Intermittent fasting has amazing benefits ..
Nik M Good for you ..! There is nothing better than watching the sun come up and having the bizarre sense of accomplishment of telling myself I beat the sun again today : )
Nik M The reason why I started getting up early is because I am much more productive between 05 : 30 am till 08 : 30 am versus 08 : 30 pm till 11 : 30 pm ... Also , it’s a great habit ..
I started intermittent fasting when I turned 29. I did two straight days out of the week of 600 calories each day. Waist line shrunk. Skin started looking better, energy was through the roof. My blood pressure went from 143/90 to 125/73. Our bodies run more efficiently on a routine of stress, rest, adapt, repeat.
I often eat only twice a day, and at some meals eat only protein, or only vegetables, for example. *This really is like clean energy mode,* versus stuffing back a whole variety of food every few hours. Starchy carbs, processed foods, really spicy or fried foods, desserts and snack foods, I don't crave any of those things because I stopped caring about them so they don't t really call out to me. Bonus info: *hold off on eating at strange times while you fly overseas, and then wait to eat the next morning after sleep* - this resets your circadian rhythm so you can *recover from jet lag.* You really don't need any food on the flight after dinner in your departure time zone. This assumes good self-care, rest, hydration and diet in days leading up to travel.
I weighed 63 kg at 185 cm for the past 10 years or so and now at 29 I finally reached 78 kg through forcing myself to eat more since January 2021, so after watching this I feel confused, was this video mostly for those who struggle to lose weight rather than gain it? Because if not, then by this video's logic I shouldn't have forced myself to eat more and should have remained a skinny 63 kg dude :D
I fast between 2pm to 10pm your body really does adapt, I don’t even feel hungry until around 2 and I wake up more energised. Human body shouldn’t be digesting 24/7 and it makes you feel like shit...
Yeah he is not wrong. I recently started this fasting thing and boy did my energy go up. I have been struggling with sleep and getting up in the morning all my life . It is like a running joke at my work because i was late so often and everyone had sort of accepted it. Now i sleep all night and sometimes bounce out of bed at 4 and hit the gym at 5 in the morning before work . Its crazy . I do the same 16/8 time frame as Joe but sometimes i fast longer on the weekends.
I do this diet most of the time naturally, for a long time now. I tried adding a daily vitamin it helped but it was harder to sleep when I was taking the vitamin..
Very good choice of picking and choosing what to eat. PSA: If you can, try to buy American brands of bottled water when traveling. If you see PepsiCo or Coca-Cola brand, buy that brand of water. The restrictions when bottling are very strict and it is going to be clean.
Traveled to Volgograd,Russia a few years ago and the sodas tasted 'off'. It was the sugar.None of the cheap high-fructose corn syrup in any of them,really, I searched around over the few weeks cuz I was used to the taste & drank many a can back then. It surprised me that we load up our citizens in the US with that stuff & Russia seems to avoid it,AND many offices have a mandatory exercise break there. The girl I was there seeing had commented on the number of overweight people she saw here & I began to notice this as well after her observation & seeing the avg crowds over there compared to here.We have issues.
@@jjohnsengraciesmom you got it. One meal a day for 2 weeks and you'll never look back. Life gets better after that as long as you have the discipline to keep it going
I been 1 meal a day, 7 day fast 2/3 times year. main meal 1/4 pm. feel best i ever have. Recent research says can stop/reverse ageing. Low carb/keto also. The longer the time between meals is the thing.
I’ve been eating healthy for years now. My friends would make fun of me over it, but now that we are in our 40s, my friends have all kinds of health problems related to lifestyle and poor diet. They also look old. I look slim and young and i feel like i’m still in my 20s
Jaws 75 yes.... the only thing i mess up sometimes is a snack after the eating period ends. If that happens like it did last night. I extend the 16 hour period. For example, instead of having my first meal today at 12 noon I will waiting until 2:30
Jaws 75 yeah i do great during the day but night comes and i crave something sweet or peanut butter. Ill keep low / no sugar protein bars around and unsweetened almond milk. If my will power gets to weak I have a little of each. Like last night. 😂 So now I cant eat till 2:30. So im off to the gym!
i dont really have any extra pounds to lose so i just eat whatever the hell i want during the 8 hour window whenever i feel like eating. still works great
Everyone is different, but we do tend to eat more then we need. I need to eat pretty often, usually 3 or 5 times a day or I get headaches, dizzy.. but it’s not a lot. Sometimes it’s just nuts or cheese.
I need to tweak some things to make sure I'm getting enough calories but I switched to eating only twice a day this week, and implemented intermittent fasting. I'll eat lunch about 1, then I'll eat again around 6, and I wont again til 1 the next afternoon. I'm staying to feel really good, I'm not sliking my insulin more than I have to, my legs dont feel heavy either. I also drop how much water I drink. I drink to thirst , not just chug a whole bottle of water at a time.
I can attest to fastings effectiveness in losing fat and leading to not having to eat as much as you used to. I absolutely love breakfast always have always will but after pushing my no food window gradually up to 14 15-16 hrs… I don’t Wake up starving for some waffles lol. I have my coffee and I’m good till 12 noon. I actually don’t get hungry until I eat something or do something strenuous like workout.
I live in Texas.. and I tell you this.. everywhere.. I mean everywhere I go, I see unhealthy obese people. And I don't say that in a mean way. I just observe it. Educating our youth with these types of diets would be so beneficial. Because, it's too late for a lot of these people that will never adapt to these types of methods.
maui swift Oh I know! It's ridiculous. It's horrific. I've traveled to many different countries. Reading about it and seeing it is two different things. The average American seemingly doesn't realize the damage they are doing to their body. The more I wonder about it, the more I think it's of design to keep the masses fat and docile.
Street Wise Hercules If you eat whenever you feel like it you’ll end up obese, pretty simple. There are a looot of times where I’ll feel like eating or snacking on something good when I shouldn’t be eating, good thing I have a modicum of self-restraint or I would have been a (more than normal) fat guy for sure.
My only query is with getting sufficient vitamins and minerals if you’re eating one meal. I like 2 meals per day probably 5 days per week personally, and considering going down to 1 but I do wonder about if I’m getting enough micronutrients
I mean he is older and probably isn't working out as hard as he use to, I'm sure his metabolism is slower. And your priorities change when you are younger you want to be the biggest baddest man ever when you are older being thinner is just easier and feels better.
Good point. And I think Henry definitely talks from a perspective of a guy who used to work out a lot and you just need calories for that. If you can pack the amount of calories you need to grow in two meals without bloating, then more powet to ya, but it won't be realistic or convenient for most. And there's this whole social aspect to food and eating, that I don't even wanna get into...
I'm 87 hours into a fast and I feel really good at the moment. It's a cool feeling. I think everybody should try not stuffing their face multiple times a day.
@hobbit lad yo You're misinformed or uneducated, 5 to 6 week fasts (under medical supervision) are curing all kinds of syndromes and diseases - I fast for 30 hours once a week at least, my bloods are perfect, I feel 25 years younger and very happy. Keto for life.... Dickhead !
Buy a scale that measures body fat loss and lean muscle mass loss. I did and realized that I lost a lot of muscle doing a 6 day fast. I won’t do it again. I’m no expert and I have no clue what to do but the long fast was a mistake.
Fasting feels good because it draws on kidney adrenals. We need energy (especially brains) but intestines need rest. Hmm..The key is to eat simply and in season most of the time. Autumn/Spring are perfect months for fasting.
I'm 24 and I've been more or less skinny for my entire life so far. Not anorexic or chest sunk under the shoulders kind of skinny, but I always wish I had more mass. I've heard 5 smaller meals a day is good for bulking, but idk how to go about it. Meal prepping for 3 meals a day with snacks is hard enough. How do you do it? Supplements? (I read that they don't make up for not eating enough healthy calories.) Low reps, high weight? I do that a lot at my warehouse job, keeping proper lifting form in mind. Maybe it's cause I commute by bus/foot and work 8-14 hour shifts of constant lifting/walking. Maybe I should just go to the gym and really go til fail so my muscles can start feeding on whatever I'm eating. Idk. I'm worried I'll be wasting my time/money. Already did a week long trial at my local gym doing deadlifts and bench press, and didn't get much out of it. Any tips appreciated.
Does rogan eat shakes before than 16 hr 8 hr window ..as in does he count his green shakes before his workouts in the morning as just fluids? Genuinely curious
_intermittent fasting is best done during both of the quarter moon phases, because of the moons effect on our bodies, we naturally do not feel as hungry during that time. Try it out_
They have said so many things I’ve agreed with and lived . Especially the constant eating . We overload our guts with so much food it bogs the body down
Intermittent fasting 100% works. I eat between noon and 8:00 pm around my work schedule. Energy levels are up, weight is down, overall mood improved and I don’t feel like I’m missing anything.

I did intermittent fasting for years and didn't even know it, that's probably why I stayed so lean all my life. Started doing it again about a year ago.
Did the same thing for years just because I didn't have time to eat in the morning and didn't want to go outside and didn't have enough time at lunch, either.
Same here.. in high school, I didn't eat until about 3 or 4 p.m. was lean.
damn you guys bringing up HS. i did the exact opposite. i ate only during HS. nutrition and lunch and pretty much didn't eat until the next day at school.
Quietude that’s not intermittent that’s starving yourself hence why you ate so much junk when you got home
Diana M that’s not intermittent fasting.you were probably skinny not lean.lean is slim with muscle tone.if you didn’t eat for all those hours you will have muscle wastage hence looking skinny. It’s not healthy
Stop overeating. Give your digestive system time to rest.
Absolutely, I was a bit sceptic about Intermittent Fasting first, but since March (Covid lockdown), I have been doing the 16/8 and seen great results (been hitting running PBs, getting back to long distance running). A staple part of my diet over past couple of years has been drinking Yerba Mate tea - and this really helps keeping off the hunger, as well as being great for metabolism.
When you do eat, I imagine the foods we intake during the 'eating window' will be absorbed by the body more so, so it encourages me to eat better foods. I usually have my breakfast foods as my 12pm lunch.
I’ve never heard of Yerba mate tea! Thanks for the tip, we’ll look into it! Do you still drink coffee?
@@thecouplechallenge7110 hey, no worries! I might have a coffee once in a blue moon just for taste, or with an occasion desert, but not really as a ‘pick me up’, I think to be drinking Yerba Mate and coffee daily might be a bit of a caffeine overload. Yerba Mate comes from South America (mainly Argentina/Paraguay/Uruguay/Brazil), it comes in loose leaves, so you will need a bombilla (filtered straw) to drink it. A lot of professional footballers from there swear by it, inc Messi, Suarez and Co! You can hopefully find it pretty easy online from wherever you are! :)
Thanks Henry and Joe. This was the exact answer I needed. 👍🙏
I had a colonoscopy a few weeks back, and part of the prep, after having no fiber for a week before, the 24 hrs before is a strictly clear fluid diet... I don't believe I've ever gone a day without some sort of food. I was really concerned I'd end up completely hangry and twitchy. I was shocked to discover that my boby had zero problem. It was actually no big deal... but then I was really psyching myself up about it all. Funny, often times it never turns out as bad as we make it out to be in our minds.
I ended up feel really good, and lighter. The intermittent fasting thing now intrigues me.
the almonds and water diet sounds a lot easier to digest than burritos and chicken ranch sandwiches.
He was such a good actor in SOA it's so hard to get over the character he played 😂
Also: this is so so true!
hey Joe thanks for the great interviews
I can confirm everything Rollins has said here. I work from home full time and get sucked into "the zone" on a daily basis. I never eat breakfast and by the time I'm ready to step away from my home office for some lunch, it's already around 3PM. In fact, I'm not even cognizant of the fact I haven't had lunch due to feeling hungry, it's simply just a "oh wait, I haven't eaten today". It has put me into this state of mind where I'm now totally fine with waiting until dinner and eating whatever I want. Interestingly enough, when it does come time to eat that first meal of the day, which is dinner, my brain tells me that I need to eat an entire buffet and then halfway through a plate of food, I feel very full. Overall, I eat MUCH less, it's really strange.
Your stomach adapts to how much food you eat. I did the same thing when I graduated high school and started working. It was much easier for me to skip breakfast and eat light lunches if no lunches at all. I'd come home hungry as fuck thinking I needed ten plates of food when a half of a plate would fill me up because my stomach shrank.
Yeah,I was prescribed adderall & it made me feel the exact same way,I would forget to eat or when the last time was but it was kinda disconcerting to not eat all day AND not notice. I figured it had to be terrible for me since I didn't see myself as overweight to begin with,but doc watched it & said it usually fades. Maybe It all leveled out because it dimmed the urge to auto-eat so many meals conditioned into us?I only eat like twice a day now & hold a healthier weight even long after abandoning the script,but sadly without it I may have never realised the excess I ate & carried around. My brother is about the same age & avg size,but with his continued poor eating he now has to deal with full blown diabetes at 36. Not recommending using drugs for a quick diet at all,that just brought it to my attention.Having two people with some fame taking the time to make some useful points & offer tips that help them and may help others is what really gets the needed attention.
2 years ago I started fasting 12/12. The first week was the hardest because the body was not used to skipping that much food, but it helped me a lot, I lost 50kg in 9 months with regular exercise (4 times a week, cycling ). Now two years later I'm still doing it,
Hello. Does 12/12 work fine till now? Or do you upped to 16/8 or 18/6? 12/12 seemed. Convenient to me since I wanted to stick to itm
@@MrWarhead16 Hello there, i have started a 16/8 fasting since Nov 2021 and it helped me to maintain my weight. My recommendation is to listen to the Huberman Podcast, he has a full episode explaining the pros and cons of fasting.
I’m fasting 23.5 hours a day, eating the other .5. Keto foods only. I’m haven’t lost any muscle, but probably 20 lbs of fat. My workouts are great! 5 miles of cardio daily with weight training immediately after. Love it! P.S. I’m a 50 year old firefighter.
Half a peanut and an after dinner mint.🤣
@@TheJeffro451 Haha!
. 5 h is too little. Makes no difference if you fast 23,5 or 24h just do 24 :1 or 20:1 same effect, don't go too strict.
That "every word that comes out of my mouth is extremely important" vibe is strong on these two.
I do 22/2 intermittent fasting, meaning I have a 2 hour eating window each day, which, due to my work schedule is generally from 8 to 10pm. So basically I skip the morning and noon meals, and eat a big dinner in the evening. It's not hard at all once you get used to it.
@5:15, "I think its goat?"...... "Cliff Bar!" Classic and TRUE.
MADGUNS FOREVER™ totally! I traveled to China regularly and I would carry peanut butter and almonds in my backpack just in case the meal I was offered did not “look right” 😂
This dude is truly fascinating
Rollins has seriously dark eyes, not a blank stare or dark as in evil but ....almost like a shining darkness in his eyes, dude is cool as fuck
My appetite has shrunk since I hit 42 and I was worried but they just explained it so well I'm not fussed now
I've noticed when touring in Europe it's mainly snacking through the day then one main meal. Usually dinner. I wonder if that's from what they've inherited from many years.
I found this little documentary on the Levi’s 501 Jean. Henry Rollins was talking about the clothes he was wearing and how he would destroyed jeans. It was just really compelling to watch him. A likeable, powerful artist!
Lost weight on an overseas business trip (18 lbs) mostly because of dietary restrictions & concerns. A nibble for breakfast & lunch, and a meal @ night. JUST like Henry said, the western 3 meals/day started putting weight back on. Now 2 meal replacement shakes/day & dinner. I also have slower digestion so it helps. Henry said that too.
I have been doing intermittent fasting for about a month and I feel so much better!! It’s a great life style change !
Also been doing the 16/8 intermittent fasting.. Get up at 5 am each day , hit the gym and don’t have my first meal until 11 am.. Your body is an amazing machine that can adopt to anything as long as you take the time to train it .. Intermittent fasting has amazing benefits ..
Mustafa Baris I do this exact same routine
Nik M Good for you ..! There is nothing better than watching the sun come up and having the bizarre sense of accomplishment of telling myself I beat the sun again today : )
@@mustafabaris9681 or the fact that you feel like you are mildly in the same arena as jocko willink for being up this early
Nik M The reason why I started getting up early is because I am much more productive between 05 : 30 am till 08 : 30 am versus 08 : 30 pm till 11 : 30 pm ... Also , it’s a great habit ..
You “beat the sun”? The sun beats your ass all your life, you’re chasing the dragon there champ
Eating once a day made my life so much easier and I feel great. Really opens your eyes oh how much we overeat in general
Please invite Dr. Valter Longo
He has been studying longevity and fasting for over 30 years
Very interesting person!!!
Took Henry's advice when I went to Mexico. Never drink tap water, only eat canned goods and protein bars.
I started intermittent fasting when I turned 29. I did two straight days out of the week of 600 calories each day. Waist line shrunk. Skin started looking better, energy was through the roof. My blood pressure went from 143/90 to 125/73. Our bodies run more efficiently on a routine of stress, rest, adapt, repeat.
What did you eat/drink and at what time?
I tried doing the eat stop eat thing but im only a man and i hate black coffee after drinking it for too long lol
I also want to know what you are on these days .
Joe, 16/8 is entry level. Talk about clarity try 23/1, best feeling in the world. Every day of my life
This body of mine will adapt to anything.
Cured my pre diabetes eating IF. Love it
what a goddamn legend. He is doing OMAD and 2MAD intuitively.
Love this! Henry is awesome
I had tinnitus for 30yrs. I started the 16:8 IF model then extended to 20:4......i no longer have tinnitus.
I often eat only twice a day, and at some meals eat only protein, or only vegetables, for example.
*This really is like clean energy mode,* versus stuffing back a whole variety of food every few hours. Starchy carbs, processed foods, really spicy or fried foods, desserts and snack foods, I don't crave any of those things because I stopped caring about them so they don't t really call out to me.
Bonus info: *hold off on eating at strange times while you fly overseas, and then wait to eat the next morning after sleep* - this resets your circadian rhythm so you can *recover from jet lag.* You really don't need any food on the flight after dinner in your departure time zone. This assumes good self-care, rest, hydration and diet in days leading up to travel.
Love you Henry!
Why eat?! You just get hungry again.
there's something to that. it seems silly.
Why breathe?
I weighed 63 kg at 185 cm for the past 10 years or so and now at 29 I finally reached 78 kg through forcing myself to eat more since January 2021, so after watching this I feel confused, was this video mostly for those who struggle to lose weight rather than gain it? Because if not, then by this video's logic I shouldn't have forced myself to eat more and should have remained a skinny 63 kg dude :D
I fast between 2pm to 10pm your body really does adapt, I don’t even feel hungry until around 2 and I wake up more energised. Human body shouldn’t be digesting 24/7 and it makes you feel like shit...
Yeah he is not wrong. I recently started this fasting thing and boy did my energy go up. I have been struggling with sleep and getting up in the morning all my life . It is like a running joke at my work because i was late so often and everyone had sort of accepted it. Now i sleep all night and sometimes bounce out of bed at 4 and hit the gym at 5 in the morning before work . Its crazy . I do the same 16/8 time frame as Joe but sometimes i fast longer on the weekends.
Henry always keeps it real
I used to go 50 straight hours without food from 2017-19 because of work. My dad forced me to change shifts so I can only do about 24 hrs.

I do this diet most of the time naturally, for a long time now. I tried adding a daily vitamin it helped but it was harder to sleep when I was taking the vitamin..
Very good choice of picking and choosing what to eat. PSA: If you can, try to buy American brands of bottled water when traveling. If you see PepsiCo or Coca-Cola brand, buy that brand of water. The restrictions when bottling are very strict and it is going to be clean.
Traveled to Volgograd,Russia a few years ago and the sodas tasted 'off'. It was the sugar.None of the cheap high-fructose corn syrup in any of them,really, I searched around over the few weeks cuz I was used to the taste & drank many a can back then. It surprised me that we load up our citizens in the US with that stuff & Russia seems to avoid it,AND many offices have a mandatory exercise break there. The girl I was there seeing had commented on the number of overweight people she saw here & I began to notice this as well after her observation & seeing the avg crowds over there compared to here.We have issues.
I love hearing him talk about joy division.
1 day a,week I go from 16 to 20.Eat clean and you'll never have to worry about weight.
What is 16 to 20? You mean that ma y hours without food?
@@jjohnsengraciesmom you got it. One meal a day for 2 weeks and you'll never look back. Life gets better after that as long as you have the discipline to keep it going
Living in Flint, I can definitely relate to the water situation.
Why is the full podcast unavailable again??
I believe it’s because of the transition to Spotify
I been 1 meal a day, 7 day fast 2/3 times year. main meal 1/4 pm. feel best i ever have. Recent research says can stop/reverse ageing. Low carb/keto also. The longer the time between meals is the thing.
Cliff bars . Always a go to.

Yo Gary! Doing keto or regular eating during if and omad?
I’ve been eating healthy for years now. My friends would make fun of me over it, but now that we are in our 40s, my friends have all kinds of health problems related to lifestyle and poor diet. They also look old. I look slim and young and i feel like i’m still in my 20s
How do get more info on Intermitted Fasting?

Joe “I’m just having some liquid or something like that” Rogan
Ive been doing the 16:8 fast and im losing weight and i feel great.
Jaws 75 yes.... the only thing i mess up sometimes is a snack after the eating period ends. If that happens like it did last night. I extend the 16 hour period. For example, instead of having my first meal today at 12 noon I will waiting until 2:30
Jaws 75 yeah i do great during the day but night comes and i crave something sweet or peanut butter. Ill keep low / no sugar protein bars around and unsweetened almond milk. If my will power gets to weak I have a little of each. Like last night. 😂 So now I cant eat till 2:30. So im off to the gym!
It’s great for losing weight but makes things a little difficult if your trying to bulk up. Mainly because I really don’t feel like eating as much lol
i dont really have any extra pounds to lose so i just eat whatever the hell i want during the 8 hour window whenever i feel like eating. still works great
Always refreshing listening to Rollins the ubermensch.
18:6 works amazing for me, lunch and dinner before 6. never felt better.
Everyone is different, but we do tend to eat more then we need. I need to eat pretty often, usually 3 or 5 times a day or I get headaches, dizzy.. but it’s not a lot. Sometimes it’s just nuts or cheese.
I need to tweak some things to make sure I'm getting enough calories but I switched to eating only twice a day this week, and implemented intermittent fasting. I'll eat lunch about 1, then I'll eat again around 6, and I wont again til 1 the next afternoon. I'm staying to feel really good, I'm not sliking my insulin more than I have to, my legs dont feel heavy either. I also drop how much water I drink. I drink to thirst , not just chug a whole bottle of water at a time.
Are you going to have Cole Robinson The Snake Wizard on your amazing show?
I Searched both their names and this is the first result
6 hour eating window, 14 kg lighter in just 4 months, best thing I ever did and I aint stoppin any time soon
I can attest to fastings effectiveness in losing fat and leading to not having to eat as much as you used to. I absolutely love breakfast always have always will but after pushing my no food window gradually up to 14 15-16 hrs… I don’t Wake up starving for some waffles lol. I have my coffee and I’m good till 12 noon. I actually don’t get hungry until I eat something or do something strenuous like workout.
I live in Texas.. and I tell you this.. everywhere.. I mean everywhere I go, I see unhealthy obese people. And I don't say that in a mean way. I just observe it. Educating our youth with these types of diets would be so beneficial. Because, it's too late for a lot of these people that will never adapt to these types of methods.
Ancient Knowledge your country has the largest portions I have ever seen and way too much meat. The culture needs an overhaul.
maui swift Oh I know! It's ridiculous. It's horrific. I've traveled to many different countries. Reading about it and seeing it is two different things. The average American seemingly doesn't realize the damage they are doing to their body. The more I wonder about it, the more I think it's of design to keep the masses fat and docile.
UFO SHILL yes manufacturing consent
Eat when you’re hungry or feel like it, no need to fit in more than you need or missing out.
Street Wise Hercules If you eat whenever you feel like it you’ll end up obese, pretty simple. There are a looot of times where I’ll feel like eating or snacking on something good when I shouldn’t be eating, good thing I have a modicum of self-restraint or I would have been a (more than normal) fat guy for sure.
.....as I'm eating a burrito.....
Omad is amazing. After 3 day your body adapts And you find out you don't need much to sustain yourself..I eat Omad and swim daily.
My only query is with getting sufficient vitamins and minerals if you’re eating one meal. I like 2 meals per day probably 5 days per week personally, and considering going down to 1 but I do wonder about if I’m getting enough micronutrients
I mean he is older and probably isn't working out as hard as he use to, I'm sure his metabolism is slower. And your priorities change when you are younger you want to be the biggest baddest man ever when you are older being thinner is just easier and feels better.
Good point. And I think Henry definitely talks from a perspective of a guy who used to work out a lot and you just need calories for that. If you can pack the amount of calories you need to grow in two meals without bloating, then more powet to ya, but it won't be realistic or convenient for most.
And there's this whole social aspect to food and eating, that I don't even wanna get into...
“Well that’s like your opinion dude...” 😬
I'm 87 hours into a fast and I feel really good at the moment. It's a cool feeling. I think everybody should try not stuffing their face multiple times a day.
@hobbit lad yo You sound like a joy to be around. You obviously have no knowledge about the benefits of extended fasting.
@hobbit lad yo You're misinformed or uneducated, 5 to 6 week fasts (under medical supervision) are curing all kinds of syndromes and diseases - I fast for 30 hours once a week at least, my bloods are perfect, I feel 25 years younger and very happy. Keto for life.... Dickhead !
Buy a scale that measures body fat loss and lean muscle mass loss. I did and realized that I lost a lot of muscle doing a 6 day fast. I won’t do it again. I’m no expert and I have no clue what to do but the long fast was a mistake.
Fasting feels good because it draws on kidney adrenals. We need energy (especially brains) but intestines need rest. Hmm..The key is to eat simply and in season most of the time. Autumn/Spring are perfect months for fasting.
I'm 24 and I've been more or less skinny for my entire life so far. Not anorexic or chest sunk under the shoulders kind of skinny, but I always wish I had more mass. I've heard 5 smaller meals a day is good for bulking, but idk how to go about it. Meal prepping for 3 meals a day with snacks is hard enough. How do you do it? Supplements? (I read that they don't make up for not eating enough healthy calories.) Low reps, high weight? I do that a lot at my warehouse job, keeping proper lifting form in mind. Maybe it's cause I commute by bus/foot and work 8-14 hour shifts of constant lifting/walking. Maybe I should just go to the gym and really go til fail so my muscles can start feeding on whatever I'm eating. Idk. I'm worried I'll be wasting my time/money. Already did a week long trial at my local gym doing deadlifts and bench press, and didn't get much out of it.
Any tips appreciated.

Does rogan eat shakes before than 16 hr 8 hr window ..as in does he count his green shakes before his workouts in the morning as just fluids? Genuinely curious
Henry looks like he's perpetually scared. Ironic
He admits that he is on the Autism spectrum.
It's all about making money...the more we eat, the more the industries make.
_intermittent fasting is best done during both of the quarter moon phases, because of the moons effect on our bodies, we naturally do not feel as hungry during that time. Try it out_
They have said so many things I’ve agreed with and lived . Especially the constant eating . We overload our guts with so much food it bogs the body down
