Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset (one cannot consume water or food). This is for 30 days. I usually run 2 mles during the daytime and come home to also do a timed pushup workout. I would appreciate it if you could tell me pros and cons and tips. Thanks!

Hey, I started doing eat stop eat about 6 weeks ago. At first, I got dizzy and felt sick when i was training, but now I love it! I feel sharper and more concentrated. I am also starting to see a BIG difference in my body composition. Its like I can actually feel my body burning fat during the workout, and after, my metabolism is sky high for hours! Thanks Brad!! XD Your eating/training plan is the best for natural athletes!

you just answered aquestion i’ve been asking ppl for a week , no one gives a clear answer on that one .
im starting 2 dayf from now a day fast , im an athlete , can i continue training with same intensity ? and just take more water ?

Brad, are you recomending this to people that are trying to loose weight only? Your response to “hellokatter” said it wouldn’t make much difference even though they were speaking about weight training. I can’t see how the fasting stage would help increase muscle mass/endurance since you are not providing the nutrients needed for muscles to repair themselves during a fasting state. If ones goal is to loose weight I can accept this though I still believe eating is better than fasting. (continued)

:34 ‘similarily’ is not a word Brad. I believe you meant to say ‘similarly’. Good video though you are exceptional in explaining this process.

MarauderRaine perhapse u need to eat a bit less cuz ones ur used to eating alot u’ll get hungry every like 2 hours and its annoying cuz exercise will become an agany.. wat u shud do is eat till ur satisfied not till ur full and only eat untill ur slightly feeling hungry thats the most healthiest way cuz u shud give ur stomach and intestines a lil rest thats the whole point of fasting !!
August 25th, 2010 at 5:15 pm
Yeah, but there’s some fat that your body needs to hold on to, otherwise it goes into an emergency mode. You’ll feel weak and tired if you do exercise, ’cause your body is acting like it’ll never eat again, and it doesn’t want to lose the fat. I definitely wouldn’t chose to exercise while fasting.

they also do spit buckets and sweat out weight which is pure water weight, they’re actually dehydrated, so it’s not really the same
August 25th, 2010 at 5:40 pm
@MarauderRaine Calories (energy) are taken from the fat stores in your body which means you CAN do both.

I LOVE YOU!

Should one combine a fasting day with exercising or fast one day and exercise the next?
August 25th, 2010 at 8:06 pm
you r finally making sense…dont focus on the GH it is the insulin level that determines all factors of your health and ability…low insuling levels are always the best except when you have to eat…that’s why you should eat at night as in the WARRIOR DIET. insulin up, vitality is low, but you
r asleep so who cares…

I LOVE YOUR SWEATER ITS CUTE!~erica

What if you’re under 25 and want to continue growing (height wise)? Will fasting stunt growth?
August 25th, 2010 at 10:10 pm
Hmm…makes me think of boxers who don’t really eat much and workout so much to drop weight fast, in time to pass their weight ins before a match.
August 25th, 2010 at 10:44 pm
Don’t worry about answering, question answered at the end.
August 25th, 2010 at 11:33 pm
Does that mean that if one fasts and exercises, that the benefits will be greater?

If you take in any calories it is no longer really fasting. In those terms anything other than water is food. I wasn’t trying to offend you know you, I was just trying to help.
August 26th, 2010 at 1:33 am
ok is not food its just a drink and t like 30 cals retard
