Intermittent Fasting plus Protein-Pacing instead of endless calorie counting – why this could be better for you
The key takeaways:
• Combining intermittent fasting with protein pacing results in much greater fat loss than classic calorie restriction • Belly fat is reduced more effectively, while muscle mass is better preserved • Cravings and constant food thoughts decrease • IF + protein pacing is easier to integrate into daily life than counting calories every day • Studies show: structure and nutrient quality make the difference
What is IF-P actually?
IF-P stands for Intermittent Fasting combined with Protein Pacing. In the study we refer to here, participants maintained a 36-hour fast one day per week. On the other days, participants ate normally – but with a focus on high-quality nutrients and protein. No constant hunger, no pressure. Instead: structure.
In comparison, the control group followed a daily calorie deficit without fasting days, but with a “heart-healthy diet.”
What does the study show?
After 8 weeks, the differences were clear:
• The IF-P group lost almost 9% of body weight, while the calorie group lost around 5% • Especially visceral fat (the “unhealthy belly fat”) was reduced much more significantly • Fat-free mass increased relatively, while muscle loss was much lower • Participants experienced fewer cravings and thought less about food
Why is this relevant for you?
If you fast with Fastic, you already know the principle: it’s not just about “how much,” but also about “when and what.” The study confirms: those who combine smartly get more out of it.
More fat loss, steadier energy, fewer cravings – without struggling daily with calorie-counting apps.
How can you apply IF-P with Fastic?
1. Plan your fasting days consciously • 36 hours are doable if you prepare well • Drink plenty, stay active, and allow recovery phases
2. Focus on protein on eating days • Goal: 30–35% of your calories from protein • Good sources: quark, eggs, lentils, tofu, fish, lean meat
3. Choose high-quality foods • High in fiber, low in sugar, natural • Think about micronutrients, not just calories
4. Use the Fastic app as a structure aid • Track your fasting periods with the tracker • Use the calorie and meal tracker to keep protein intake in check • Create suitable meals for fasting breaks with the meal planner
5. Think long-term • 8 weeks show results, but lasting change takes time • Stay flexible and adjust your strategy if something isn’t working
Conclusion: Count less, understand more
IF-P can be an effective strategy if you want to lose fat without stressing about numbers every single day. The combination of planned fasting periods and protein-rich meals provides structure, satiety, and proven better results.
