3 day fasting for body mind and soul

[mikefan1034]

what you guys think of this and has anyone done or attempted a 3 or 5 day fast? My friend did it for a body transformation competition for golds gym and let me tell you he said that it was the most intense thing he ever did. He never felt so in touch within himself before and it really is mind over body.

W/in 8 hours I would go crazy and become a cannibal. I can't fast for 5 hrs let alone 5 days.

In all seriousness, what's the reasoning behind starving yourself? I don't see how this could be beneficial in anyway unless you were trying to be brainwashed by a cult.

its only 3 days man not 3 months lol plus it helps heal your body and helps get rid the toxic chemicals in your body. Plus it boosts and helps rebuild your immune system. I say one should deff look into this

Muslims do it for 30 days from sunrise to sunset, and there's quite a few successful muslim bodybuilders in the industry that say that use it as 'priming' before a cycle

Haha, mike I would not be a good candidate for this. I'm sure there are some benefits but from eating every 2 1/2 hrs for years, I'd break like a potato chips w/in a few hours.

I do this at least once per month. Anywhere from 48 hours to 5 days, depending on how I feel. Even on cycle. I like it most when bulking, you can really feel how you are giving your body a rest from all the food .. You feel 50lbs lighter and 10 years younger the second day in. Hunger was never an issue for me, in fact I don't quite even know what hungry feels like anymore ... (which may sound good to some ppl who can't control themselves, but actually it is not cool having to force feed yourself every single day)

I actually think a one day fast isnt bad if you keep fluids up. If I bulk, sometimes I fast from Friday dinner to Saturday dinner and then eat high protein. Seams to get rid of bloat.
