#01 Cole Hastings - How Intermittent Fasting was the Catalyst for Change
Cole Hastings (@eightfold_fitness) is currently completing a degree in cognitive science at the University of Buffalo, New York. Cole is also a plant-based bodybuilder and spends his spare time creating YouTube videos about personal development, the importance of eating plant-based and how to get the most out of weight lifting workouts. Cole is a relative newcomer to the plant-based space but his passion for bringing value to his followers is something to be admired.
In this episode, Cole and I discuss a range of topics, including:
- How a 2-day intermittent fast dramatically improved his workout.
- How changing to a vegan diet affected his workouts.
- How he got started on YouTube.
- Creating and consuming content on YouTube.
- The types of plant-based foods used to fuel and recover from weight lifting.
- His take on tracking macronutrients and calories.
- The protein myth that
is spread in the weightlifting community.
