Intermittent Farting.

I've decided to try Intermittent Farting. You basically skip breakfast, then you Fart, Intermittently. Most common practice is the 16/8 IF plan where you hold it for 16 seconds then you rip one for 8 seconds. The other alternative method of IF is called Fart, Stop, Fart, but that's more of an alternate day plan.

BCAA's optional.

    But how many calories does it burn and do I need to eat them back?

    Over 9000. And yes.

    Are there benefits from doing Ori Hofmelkers Warrior IF approach of farting for 20 seconds then holding it for 4?

    Over 9000. And yes.

    So if I up my farting from 12 times per day to 18 times per day, do I need to take a rest day from farting?

    Yes, you should also say "HOFMELKER" when pushing.

    You should absolutely incorporate a cheat day where you still fart, you just don't count them.

    I just sharted... Does that count as extra, or IF to failure?

    Should I fart just as hard both days? Or should I try littler farts the first days and then increase them in intervals?

    I prefer one continous fart that lasts for my entire waking hours. Keeps the metabolism going, and makes public speaking awkward.

    I don't think 1 continuous fart is right!
    That could lead to overtraining and imminent metabolic slowdown.

    That would be the "Leanstains" program right? I've heard a lot of interesting things about the results people are getting from their sharts.

    Do you need a lighter to burn the calories?

    His farts must never get very gusty. I dunno bout you guys but I could probably take down a house with this thing after all this IF farting I've been doing. I recommend it.

    I find that the results are better after eating Polish sausages. Not only 1000 cals burnt but instant privacy too!!

    Will my *kitten* go into starvation mode if I eat back less than 9000 of my calories burned?

    Although I have seen some inch loss after a particularly large release of air. I am worried that I might actually gain weight whilst IF'ing only if I am full of "air" surely I will weigh more after said "air" has been released?

    I don't want to be deflated fat :sad:

    Fact. Farting starts your metabolism each day. Without farting your metabolism would never ever... start.
