train fasted

the science is in and proves that training fasted is the most efficient way to train

your gym guru meathead friend will say i am wrong, but the science says i am right and so does the anectodal data

"but steve i need sugar and carbs to workout!"

well sir, you are a sugar JUNKIE is why. just like any addiction you need it to function. the way you shake that addiction is to stop

we have a lot of stim and sugar junkies out there who cannot train

the first couple weeks will suck, but once you shake off that addiction you will never train not fasted again
