    Intermittent Fasting with afternoon workouts

    You grind it out.

    I lift at 5:30 four days a week. My window is actually 4:00PM-9:00PM or so. I bring lunch to work (8-5) and chow down on a PB sandwich or a cliff bar before I lift. I workout and then chow down the other 1600-1800~ cals I have left that night with a heavy whey shake.

    I also use an ECA stack for appetite suppression. Eph tabs and Black Coffee through the early hours.

    I started IF with a 4 hour window between 6-10 and worked out around 5. I however, struggled with eating so much food in a short span. A few weeks ago I switched to Alternate Day fasting which is taking IF to the next level. I love it and even started my boyfriend on it now.

    Little rundown on alternate day fasting. You fast for 36 hours and during that time you can have about 20-40% of your maintenance calories from lean protein and vegetables after your hit the 20 hr mark. I usually have a big salad. Either way this is what keeps you said during that time. Remember that you will be asleep for the first 8 hrs or so and the last 8 hrs. Give or take a few depending on how much sleep you get. On your feasting days I do iifym and count everything. It's does no good to binge out, your just counteracting IMO. I also try to eat very clean.

    If you want more info checkout Dr. Sara Solomon. She's my go to for anything IF/AD fasting.

    Hey. Based on the last thread I wanted to ask the following.... I am currently on 16/8. My first meal is at 1pm. Followed by a few snacks until around 3ish. Between 430-530 I am in the gym (cardio or weight training). Can I/F be planned in this way?


    Thanks.

    IF can be planned anyway that you want and whatever works best for you.

    Why? Because IF doesn't serve any purpose what-so-ever. It only helps you eat your daily calories at a more spread out interval. If you want to eat 15 times a day then that is fine. If you want to eat once a day then that is fine as well. Do what works for you.

    No factor. Get in there and Get **** Done!

    I currently fast from 6pm-noon and often workout 6-8am. The first few days of it are rough but after that it's fine.
