My Dearest 75th,,,,,,,,

Intermittent fasting is the fucking shit rob!

I'm on my third consecutive day and today was my first time training on a fast day. I did eat a meal a few hours preworkout because I needed to break my fast, but my workout was intense as fuck.

I'd typically avoid training until I've ate three or four meals in fear of my performance suffering. I was purdy fucking surprised by todays workout. I'm looking forward to hitting a fasted workout Saturday midmorning and seeing what that's all about.

I'm following leangains approach of 16/8 and I'll eat higher carbs on my training days.

The original plan was to try this a few times per week, but I wanna do this everyday now lol

I did the lean gains women's version of IF...so not quite as long a fast and trained fasted quite a few times. I still do if I'm training in the morning. If I didn't psych myself out by thinking "oh this will suck cause I haven't eaten" ...I actually performed just as well. If you can get your head around it, it's pretty good!

That made me fat bro

Summer's cumming and I have to be peeled for the young lassies at the beach.

Plus it's convienient as fuck bro. Do you know how hard it is to slam chicken tits and sweet taterz while driving a commercial vehicle? lol

And 1000+ kcal meals are awesome it's like the anti-diet diet.

Awesome!

Did you enjoy the change of pace from 5-6 small meals daily to three hearty meals? Did you achieve the results you were after?

I tried it once before and psyched myself out about not eating. I had a constant fear of shriveling up lol

Truthfully I'm not really hungry during the fast up until the hour or so before I break it. Its my mind playing tricks on me

It took me a few weeks to build up to the fasting part...I did a 14 hour fast/ 10 hour eating period. I'm used to it now...hard to go back.

Did it work? I really blew it over Nov/December so I'm no where near where I want to be but I'm doing the EF contest and using the IF protocol so we'll see in 12 weeks!!

I do like the convenience of it...makes life much more simple, especially for work!

It really is a mind shift...challenges a lot of the beliefs we all "grew up" with!!

Glad you gave it another shot. I wouldnt eat a meal prior to workout...as long as you get to the gym before 1-2pm Id fast the whole way, but take some Xtend an hour before then another serving during workout.

And yeah, after my first day I went all in and did 7 days per week. I cant see doing any other way now.

Yes, 1200 calorie meals post workout is the fucking shit.

How many cals you getting per day?
