Intermittent Fasting for Strength Training and Fat Loss

[Oddball8945]

Hell no.. Even if it claimed I would drop 50lbs in one session, I still wouldn't do it.

im going to mow the lawn in my fasted state, does that count towards cardio or lifting that lawn mower is some hefty pushin lol

Well, that's kinda the whole point of doing keto, because fat/protein has more satiety(in f*cking theory)

Oh, how fun theory is.

But, oh, how rarely it fits into actual practice.

Not rly


It's really not that difficult a concept

Yes.

8 on and 16 off. I practically do this already save my whey shake before bed.
I am seeing if there are any details that pique my interest and how those who profess to follow it decide their macro and efa requirements.

I'm only on page 3.

Hope to find something useful between 3 and 51.

Its pretty much an easy concept, and one that can for sure be changed to suit your own needs and tweak and explore your own options which is why I like it a whole lot. For some strange reason I also find I am able to stay in ketosis on this much easier, and enter ketosis much easier/faster with this method over my previous 6 meal plan (which I was never good at keeping).

People actually coming to me for advise now? lmao..

Something like mowing the lawn could put a good dint into your glycogen stores, which (Zomg! wait for it..) could put you in a catabolic state, but if you don't want to take the chase. Do what I do for PE, and break the fast for it and continue on with your life.

hmm well I can vouch that eating high fat foods makes me less hungry when before I could pound 2 liters of coke with lots of carb based foods. I miss Quiznos so much ; ;

However everyone is different.

However everyone is different.

very, cause i ate 1lb of beef on flatbreads with cheese and toppings about an hour after a pot of oats with 5 wholes eggs. idk thats like 50g of fat right there alone and i wasnt even full or close to it. so i had another lb of chicken and veggies. WTF im starting to get hungry already and i just finshed all that like 4 hours ago.

Hey Everybody,

I signed up to train with Martin in September and will be logging my progress. I have no idea whether this will work or not, but I'm willing to give it a try. If you're interested in an objective, unscientific opinion, stay tuned.

I'm fat.

[W8isGR8]

I'm fat.

w00t!!!


I'm just sayin, IF would have more credibility if it was just a bunch of ripped guys doing it to stay ripped.

[Blk98Bird]

i personally lost muscle on this diet or as my gf said "you got smaller, esp your arms, i dont think you lost fat"

Dump her .

Hell no.. Even if it claimed I would drop 50lbs in one session, I still wouldn't do it.

But bro, you'd be cut like diamonds bro!!!!!

You have come a long way in confronting your phear of teh uber-catabolizim since the beginning of this thread young grasshopper .

[Blk98Bird]

I'm fat.

Ditto, I dropped from like 20ish % after having pneumonia over a month to around 14-16 now. I want to hit the 10-12 range before bumping cals back up again.

Probably an ideal candidate for before and afters but I didn't want to plaster my fat ass all over the thread, so screw it .

[nads786]

lol at least she was telling the truth

plus she likes the butt secks...hahahah kidding.....but not really

[RU4A69]

Ok, I'm starting to understand a bit better. Kind of.

Now, it seems this diet is a Lift only diet. I'm just worried about cardiovascular health.

Get a sled. you'll never do "cardio" again

When you are lifting weights, you're muscles fail long before your heart does. When the eccentric motion is eliminated, you're able to tax the heart much more.

Well, just wait until you have the "afters" until you post the "befores"

do you keep your calories and macros the same when switching from 6 meals a day to IF?
are fasted-workouts okay to do when bulking?

Yeah, I was considering that. I don't have any "true" befores, but then again I usually don't get to be that much of a fat **** because of being ill either.

Maybe I'll snap something in the next day or two and follow-up in a month or two when i'm leaner. One thing that'll skew it though is the water I mentioned that I'm holding due to trying out TTA lately. I'll do a pic at the end of TTA use and then 10-12 days after when the water has cleared, that should be accurate enough.

[Autobody]

In fact, the production of ketone bodies cuts the brain's glucose requirement from 120 g per day to about 30 g per day. Of the remaining 30 g requirement, 20 g per day can be produced by the liver from glycerol (itself a product of fat breakdown). But this still leaves a deficit of about 10 g of glucose per day that must be supplied from some other source. This other source will be the body's own proteins

I'm pretty sure that dietary protein can be used and muscle loss will be spared. (provided a carb up once an a while)
