Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Another thing people fail mention are the skin tightening benefits of IT.


Western diets/fast food is highly detrimental to your epidermis and ages you much faster in lieu of say, a cleaner/plant based diet (you can eat meat, just make sure you consume copious levels of aqua and fast as often as you can, stretching the hours you refrain from eating/minimizing the windows that you consume food).


Genetics aside, I attribute my youthful appearance to not eating within 15-16 hour windows and have been doing this since August of 2018 (seldom breaking my regimen when i'm on vacay or special occasions).


Another thing i've also included en route to eating gooder is endtroduce less sodium and low carb.



So not only am I fasting daily, but not eating hella rice and bread and noodles as the primary calories/bulk of the meal (if there is, it's just a sample/taste to give the dish some flavor balance, like for instance, some cooks/chefs are really heavy with their salt hands, maybe one piece of bread or a baby scoop of rice, but nothing heavy).



No candy or soda (unless it's seltzer water) and only drink on the weeknd (even then, just a few will do, not binging like i was in my 20's and 30's.



Crazy that I look, feel, act better now than i did the first 40 anos of my life just by changing the way/how i eat.

Interesting, I prefer fasted cardio but I have poor lifting sessions while fasted

Different training modalities use different energy sources. :yeshrug:

Depending on what you're doing, the energy will either be derived via glucose from the glycogen stored in your muscles or by using oxygen to break down those FAs/carbs.

Been doing IF since October during my cut. Lost 40 pounds within the past year

I like having one full meal a day and getting it out the way

key is to drink a lot of electrolytes

does pre workout break your fast? or does it matter if you about to eat after your workout anyways?
This is a couple years late but preworkout only breaks your fast if it contains certain ingredients like sucralose, maltodrextin

You tired of not knowing what to eat when fasting?

Tired of not knowing how long a fast should last?

Tired of not seeing the results you want?




Come on down to Ramadan!!

I lost 20 pounds in a month doing this with light exercising couple times a week. The first few days are hard af. But then you will start having to remind yourself to eat because you wont feel hunger pains.
