Weightlifting woman here wthr PCOS - I thrive with fasted workouts. Regular menses, great energy, and healed my insulin resistance. It feels good to be a thriving anomaly despite my endocrine condition! No excuses!!!
Good news 👍🏾👍🏾 Cause I hate eating late. Always sleep better when I finish eating earlier. Plus i just think it’s logical to eat when the sun is up and rest when the sun is down. Circadian rhythms.
I combine ETRF with OMAD by eating OMAD lunch. I stop eating at 12 noon and eat whatever I want at lunch. I chose to eat OMAD lunch because I read that insulin is not effective after 3 pm. OMAD breakfast would be even better since insulin sensitivity is best in the morning but I cannot get through the evening when I only have breakfast. Unlimited black coffee, tea and water plus electrolytes during fast. Down 40 pounds in 5 months at age 55.
I eat OMAD before bed. Can’t eat during the day or it weighs me down and I cannot eat before exercising. So I usually do a 16 to 20 hour fast daily. Wish I could do OMAD at noon but it would make me too tired to excercise later when I get off work.
Glad to hear not much difference between early and late time restricted feeding windows. I do much better on exercise when in fasted state. No burping or sluggishness.
I have exercised fasted at 5:00 a.m. for the past 15 years. I can't say that this has increased my gains or decreased them in that time. I'm 45 years old, 32" waist, 235lbs, 6'2", and recently had a kidney transplant. I think it works. Fasting, bodybuilding, not eating like shit, and limiting alcohol has pushed my transplant back 20+ years. Train fasted and train early. That's my recommendation.
I do early eating protocol because I have heard numerous times now that alighning your circadian rythm with your meals will help sleep ,melatonin release and vitamin D uptake. I want to fix sleeep and working on my vitamin D. Otherwise I've been carnivore for a year with only low to moderate activity but I've been pretty happy with my body recomposition. I am looking forward to starting back to the gym early next year. Carnivore has really helped me get my self care into high gear. I'm 63 and it's the best thing to happen to me in years.
Wow I don’t know how people can just eat meat!! I hate the taste of meat even fish I can only eat a little chicken once a week. I love cheese and eggs and vegetables, whole grains, beans lentils, fruit. I tried keto for a few weeks but it made me feel unwell and also very constipated Good luck to the carnivore world but not for me. .

I work an evening shift and get home from work at midnight My last meal at work is usually around 7:30 PM. I get to bed 1 am and wake up at 7:30 AM. I used to go to the gym fasted, but I would run out of gas around 45-50 minutes into my workout. I started drinking a prepackaged protein shake with 160 calories and 30 grams of protein. Now I can finish both my lifting and my post workout light cardio which is about 90 minutes. I then make my low carb breakfast and coffee eating at about 10:30 AM. I am not losing as much weight, but my workouts are a lot better. Technically I do break my fast at 12 hours, but I really do not eat until 15 hours. But if I am honest since I started doing this my diet has NOT been on point with my calories and carbs a little higher than I want. I try to stay at 2200 calories and under 100 grams of carbs. So hopefully I can get a better gauge after Christmas and lose some weight.
I do early rime restrictedceating, but I also go for my morning walk in a fasted state. I also do a 30-45 minute workout after lunch. In terms of my walking, I have significantly improved my 1-mile walking time over the last few weeks!
A runner here. I was a bit afraid of fasted runs in the morning. It turned out to be the best workouts. Same goes for gym work. No energy deficiency or loss of power and strength. Firstly I got rid of heartburn by intermittent fasting and Secondly discovered fasted runs and other workouts. We have fat storage for a reason then I guess it might be a different case for pro athletes especially runners with extremely low fat %.
I have been fasting on and off for years and have discovered something interesting for those who suffer from Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with angina. After about 18 hours of fasting, I find that I can walk uphill and move faster in general compared to when I am not fasting. This may only apply to me, but it could be worth trying for others. I suspect this improvement is because the heart is using ketones as fuel, which may provide more energy than glucose. I also follow a low-carb lifestyle, which likely complements this effect. Let me know if others have seen this effect.

Hi, really love the Stix electrolytes, have been ordering them all the way to Finland because they really feel and taste great, even though we have some nice alternatives- they don't include creatine.
What is Early Time-restricted Feeding vs Late Time-restricted Feeding? I assume Early Time-restricted Feeding means eating earlier in the day. I only ask because it was never defined and it sounds the opposite.
Yep, same here, I'm not sure what most of the terms mean . . . unfortunately on channels like this they tend to get into their shared terminology, so after a few years they don't even realise they're talking a language impervious to newcomers.
@@davelordySorry, I found this very easy to understand 😂 But you're right, there's a reason we have beginner and advanced classes in school, the two don't mix, one grows into the other, and if beginners hold back the advanced the class would be multiples in length longer. Good news is you have the Internet and can look up anything you are confused by.
@@tradermunky1998 "there's a reason we have beginner and advanced classes in school, the two don't mix" Yep, you're basically just echoing what I've said, except adding in an patronising "Yeah, but I understand", well done to you, but my point remains.
@@tradermunky1998Thank you! I did hear and see that but again it would be good to spell it out for us who don't understand or that have questions. It would be better to call it time-restricted eating. Then explain the benefits of having an early eating window vs eating later in the day. There are also other downsides to eating late, one being without natural sunlight, your body starts making melatonin which will prevent the production of insulin and without adequate insulin we then have more problems related to elevated glucose….
I struggle with very low blood sugar. Doctor can’t figure out why. I try to do intermittent fasting but I can’t go for long. I’m still trying to figure out how I can manage some kind of fasting. Thanks for posting your videos- I always learn something.
Do you measure ketones? If you are in ketosis low blood sugar isn’t a problem. It maybe an electrolyte issue too but try a sardine fast, Dr Boz TH-cam channel has done a million videos on it. You need to get into deep ketosis, it could take 3-5 days of sardine fast to get there. Then start to slowly expand your fasting window, you’re trying to improve metabolic health. You didn’t get this way overnight and it will not be fixed quickly.
Low blood sugar is the beginning signs of diabetes, you are probably pre-diabetic/insulin resistant. Your blood sugar spikes but your cells are not able to handle the incoming energy being directed into them by insulin. Your pancreas then spits out more insulin and signals tell your liver to start packing the sugar in your blood into fat cells. If that doesn't take care of the sugar, your kidneys will start filtering which is damaging and the sugar comes out in the urine. You're probably getting into stage two diabetes where your blood sugar starts showing up as high on a standard glucose blood test at that point, so your doctor will then tell you that you have diabetes, here's some Metformin, etc. But, if you're not stage two yet, that process is successful in getting through the sugar spike before too much bad happens OTHER than too much insulin is released leading to a blood sugar crash and you're probably really "hangry" and tired right around them. Your body is looking for sugar to deal with excess insulin you now have from dealing with all the excess sugar you ate hours earlier. There are tests to determine prediabetes, but most doctors do not usually do them or are still old school thinking it's not really serious (it's serious). Intermittent fasting will eventually eliminate that, a keto diet will do it quicker, and a carnivore diet even faster.
@ I tried keto but i was so fatigued that I was in bed all the time. Everyone kept saying it was keto flu and hang in there but it just never went away.
(Please) define the jargon for newcomers, slow down the narration pace a bit, and pause between sentences more often, and I'll be able to follow what you have to say much better.
Hi sir. Just a question below; Which would be ideal in the ff ? A. Fasting window 18 hrs (was 10 hrs awake 8 hrs sleeping within fasting window) or B. Fasting window 18 hrs (was 16 hrs awake 2 hrs sleeping within fasting window)
Should I worry about the need for protein to build broken down muscles if I lift weights after two meals and don't eat again for 12 or more hours? Thanks.
How about chia seeds with a ginger shot (homemade, I could add extra honey) pre workout? I currently do this and have my first meal at lunch. Have maintained my weight while still struggling to get back to a workout routine. But this would postpone post workout protein til lunchtime too, since I workout early.
I usually eat around lunch time first and have half a meal (or a bigger snack - like a few hundred grams of cheese, or pork chips, etc.) in the evening, around 10 PM. Sometimes I've gone to martial arts (muay thai) training in the evening without eating anything during the day and I've noted that in this state I seem to have much better stamina, I sweat much less (not that it's a problem), and I don't have any energy/strength issues whatsoever (I'm 41 and around 10-15% body fat, if that matters).
Makes a difference for me, exercise AM after waking and 1 black coffee or espresso... break fast around 12PM-3PM depending on hunger, last meal end by 5 or 6PM. If I eat later.... I gain weight period. I'm 44 female 20BMI whole foods diet, lower carb around 30-50 grams daily.
I've trained fasted for 20 plus years and never had a problem. Initially it takes some time getting used to, but after one adapts there should be no issue. Eating 2-3 larger meals before working out as you suggest, kind of defeats the purpose of fasting and stimulating autophagy.
Thanks for covering the study confirming common sense. However, you are also stating that it confirms your bias to not work out in a fasted state and this study does cover that. Your bias is looking at the situation backwards. Exercise is putting the body into a stress state causing it to respond in a number of ways including raising human growth hormone (HGH). Exercise while fasting magnifies this response including raising HGH higher than exercise in a nonfasted state. This was studied and revealed by a researcher on muscle development in an interview with Tom Bilyeu about 3 years ago. Also found in the research is the body will not attempt to build muscle unless it can sense it has enough protein to do so. It uses about 3 markers the primary one being the amino acid leucine. As we age the ability to sense leucine diminishes accounting for older peoples difficulty on building muscle mass and maintaining. The knee-jerk solution of 'just eat more protein" is counter productive sense it is also a lot more calories. The solution is an increased amount leucine which can be bought as a sperate amino acid.
If you were eating nutrient dense food to satiety, you likely lost very little muscle. Most people have viceral fat deposits within muscle, so they appear to shrink with fat loss.
Great explanation. I would be curious if it would be a similar impact if the feeding window is even earlier. Like feeding and exercise window 4am to 12pm. Because for me it's either this or a late window.
Could you try one way for two or three months, then the other one for the same time and see how either one works for you? Even if one way feels better but is more inconvenient, the other might be better in the long run because it would be easier to stick with. Second choice for positive health effects is better than neither.
Since I am retired, I fast in the morning and workout fasted. That way it is all done early in the day. As a triathlete sometimes I do two workouts a day and will then do one of the workouts after eating.
The fact that nobody talks about censored book called The 23 Former Doctor Truths by Lauren Clark really gets to me. Always loved people like Rachel,she opens our eyes
I do late time restricted eating. I usually workout in the morning fasted, then I eat my one meal at dinner time. It’s worked for me for years. Low BF% and strength has remained relatively close to the same from my 40’s and into my 50’s. I’m 52.
I hope I’m not misunderstanding this, but in your video explaining the amounts of each ingredient in your Electrolyte Stix, you said there was 310mg of sodium, yet the product info listed right below that video says 800mg! That’s a big difference, especially for people like me with hbp. Is that info right?
that's one of those things that hindsight makes you say "Duh!" - you're fasting to lower blood sugar. Exercise uses stored energy. Doesn't matter if it's lowered due to time fasting, or exercising, you're lowering it either way. We know the negative effects of too much glucose, so it makes sense that lowering the glucose *however we do it* would have beneficial results. Still, it's good to see a study prove out 'common sense'.
Love your videos. What can I do to stop me from being hungry all the freaking time?? I've been doing keto for a few months now and I was able to lose about 15 lbs, but the weight has just stopped dropping over the last two months. I started into menopause about a year ago and the way my body is changing so fast is terrifying. I probably need to do less "keto" friendly products and stick to just meat and veggies but my cravings get so out of control I can't do it. Just meat and veggies is a sad and boring life to me. I need something to stop me from wanting to eat all the bad things.
Not sure if this holds up for woman in (peri)menopause. Dr Stacey Sims says that most of these kind of research has been done on mostly men. Woman that fast don't tend to tap into fat but muscle because they're in a katabolic state
Thank you for saying it. I fast for 24 hours a time or 2 a month. I just finished a 48 hour fast and had trouble sleeping both nights. I'm not at all sure that I'm not overproducing cortisol and harming my weak adrenals this way. I'm not sure if I should be fasting more or j intermittent fasting and just eating in my window.
I always exercise in a fasted state, just after I wake up. Instinctively I am most motivated then, just after waking, after having not eaten for close to 16 hours. Works for me, I am 70 with a waist line 11 inches smaller than my hips.
I don’t eat anything from the time I get up. Just lemon water, coffee and green tea. I fast 16-20hrs a day. I excercise during my fasting window then I eat before shower then bed. I noticed I’ve put on 10lbs since September. Probably due to the shorter days, not seeing light and stress. So I did a 36 hr fast last Sunday.. didn’t lose a pound. And felt too tired to do any extreme exercises like hiit, or sprints or pelaton like I normally do. In fact, I didn’t even work out at all last week. I just went for 3 mile walks every day. 😞
I've had the same problem in the past and after searching for help I found a TH-cam channel called " Mind Pump Show". There's 3 trainers with 20 + years of experience who are as knowledgeable as anyone and they live by the fact we need to all including women do weight training and for people like you in your spot need to do a reverse diet because your metabolism has stopped dead because of its natural want to keep you alive because you're basically starving yourself and putting immense pressure on it by doing very hard HIIT style training. They'd have you lean into more weight training and walking and eating protein based meals to get your metabolism ramped back up and then at some point you could cut back meals/calories and you'd get weight loss while building some muscle.
I call duh hu on this. My strength recovery was excellent combined with the carnivore dieting. I did also take creatine and some whey protein on gym days. I got quite a bit of pushback from other gym members. I am older than most training heavy (72).
Absolutely! With fasting alone, you can lose weight but may also lose muscle. Exercising alone without diet changes won't usually cause weight loss, but might result in some body recomp but with healthy eating, fasting AND exercise you've got the winning ticket!
Were the individuals in the study all men or both women and men? I follow Dr Stacey Sims and according to her that for women they should have 30 grams of protein 30 min before workouts. So confused. I do 18/6 and and usually end my fast with a snack of 30 grams of protein and then workout and have dinner after.
I'm only doing a 12 hour fast, (an improvement to my prior habits) but I time exercise to correspond to my last meal to deplete blood sugar/glycogen and enter ketosis earlier. Just sprint interval training on an exercise bike 3 times per week prior to dinner, and then a gentle walk after dinner. Losing about 1 pound per week and prior high liver enzymes have nearly cleared up.
I get up at 5AM, eat early in the day like 7am - 2pm and work out late afternoon / early evening depending on my schedule. Its been working for me for a long time. I tried exercising fasted in the mornings and eating later but I just didn't get the results I wanted. not terrible just not great.
eat your electrolyte without an expensive brand name. It's easy. Na, K, Mg. Others say it is better to exercise fasted, ten eat. You dont want to be digesting during a workout.
58 years old I eat between noon and5:006:00 at the latest I've divide the odds once currently define the odds again keep it simple you truly only need one meal a day
Clinical trials are similar to youtube videos in that they are both just content creation. A similar BS filter necessary for both. I prefer to gain information from people who have personally experienced good results with something
Dr Boz was right from all her data to eat on sunset and at the latest sundown, or a fasting time frame when there's daylight to get most benefit exercising or not when doing the keto and carb restricted diet.
What? She recommends fasting during day? For more autophagy? That's pure bollocks. We recover during night that's one! So this is the time you want to prioritize for autophagy If skipping meals, skipping dinner, never bfast!!!!!!!! We must eat at sunrise!!!!!!!!
These trails are floored, the gym I go to has a nutritionist who offered a program free to us. Recommended early fasted workouts and then feed about an hour to 3 hours later. This gym had free dexa scans brought in for us. About 90% of us actually lost lean mass muscle, not just a little but about 4-9 pounds over 3 months. We were all pissed. Nutritionalist said we need to consume 30 grams of amino acids in prework to help the breakdown of muscle to feed the fasted cardio or lifting. I call bullsht on this one. We saw first hand fasted lifting/cardio will eat you lean mass up.
dexa has no way of discerning what exactly is inside the "lean mass". it merely scans the volume of different parts of your body and separates them out into fat vs lean mass. it cant tell whats actually in the lean mass. your muscles cells all contain water, and your muscles cells have intercellular fat. as well as glucose stores. You lost muscle? So if that were the case, were you weaker in the end of this 3 months? No, you weren't. the composition of your muscles changed. you didn't lose 4-9lbs of muscle.
Christ, they knew all this 100 years ago. Why the hell in 2024 are we still doing such basic a$$ studies. This is purposeful gatekeeping, purposeful slow progress, purposeful drip feeding.
Dr. Mike, any information on hulled hemp seeds. Might put them in my protein shake. 365 organic hemp seeds have fantastic micros and great macros. To good to be true, what's the catch, though?! ⁉️
Uh, duh... Exercise and diet are both required to efficiently effect weight loss. "We're going to dive into these details." Stop overcomplicating reality!

What is Early Time-restricted Feeding vs Late Time-restricted Feeding? I assume Early Time-restricted Feeding means eating earlier in the day. I only ask because it was never defined and it sounds the opposite.
Yep, same here, I'm not sure what most of the terms mean . . . unfortunately on channels like this they tend to get into their shared terminology, so after a few years they don't even realise they're talking a language impervious to newcomers.
1:17 Right there on the screen, early is 8 am to 4 pm and late is 12 pm to 8 pm.
@@davelordySorry, I found this very easy to understand 😂 But you're right, there's a reason we have beginner and advanced classes in school, the two don't mix, one grows into the other, and if beginners hold back the advanced the class would be multiples in length longer.
Good news is you have the Internet and can look up anything you are confused by.
@@tradermunky1998 "there's a reason we have beginner and advanced classes in school, the two don't mix"
Yep, you're basically just echoing what I've said, except adding in an patronising "Yeah, but I understand", well done to you, but my point remains.
@@tradermunky1998Thank you! I did hear and see that but again it would be good to spell it out for us who don't understand or that have questions.
It would be better to call it time-restricted eating. Then explain the benefits of having an early eating window vs eating later in the day.
There are also other downsides to eating late, one being without natural sunlight, your body starts making melatonin which will prevent the production of insulin and without adequate insulin we then have more problems related to elevated glucose….
Awesome study
Thanks👍. I'm doing this most of the time.
This also helped me heal from massive body trauma and injuries.
When you do ETRE, when do you stop eating? Do you have breakfast but skip dinner?
I break fast between 8 -9 am . Start fast by 3 pm. Workouts are done un the morning as well. this what is meant by early time restricted eating?
Yes. Keeping your window earring early and going into the evening and to bed with an empty stomach.
Very interesting, thanks for the good content.
I struggle with very low blood sugar. Doctor can’t figure out why. I try to do intermittent fasting but I can’t go for long. I’m still trying to figure out how I can manage some kind of fasting. Thanks for posting your videos- I always learn something.
Do you measure ketones? If you are in ketosis low blood sugar isn’t a problem. It maybe an electrolyte issue too but try a sardine fast, Dr Boz TH-cam channel has done a million videos on it. You need to get into deep ketosis, it could take 3-5 days of sardine fast to get there. Then start to slowly expand your fasting window, you’re trying to improve metabolic health. You didn’t get this way overnight and it will not be fixed quickly.
Low blood sugar is the beginning signs of diabetes, you are probably pre-diabetic/insulin resistant.
Your blood sugar spikes but your cells are not able to handle the incoming energy being directed into them by insulin. Your pancreas then spits out more insulin and signals tell your liver to start packing the sugar in your blood into fat cells. If that doesn't take care of the sugar, your kidneys will start filtering which is damaging and the sugar comes out in the urine. You're probably getting into stage two diabetes where your blood sugar starts showing up as high on a standard glucose blood test at that point, so your doctor will then tell you that you have diabetes, here's some Metformin, etc.
But, if you're not stage two yet, that process is successful in getting through the sugar spike before too much bad happens OTHER than too much insulin is released leading to a blood sugar crash and you're probably really "hangry" and tired right around them. Your body is looking for sugar to deal with excess insulin you now have from dealing with all the excess sugar you ate hours earlier.
There are tests to determine prediabetes, but most doctors do not usually do them or are still old school thinking it's not really serious (it's serious).
Intermittent fasting will eventually eliminate that, a keto diet will do it quicker, and a carnivore diet even faster.
@ I tried keto but i was so fatigued that I was in bed all the time. Everyone kept saying it was keto flu and hang in there but it just never went away.
@ you weren’t eating high enough fat plus your body was flushing out so many toxins. You have to persevere for good health.
❤❤❤thanks
(Please) define the jargon for newcomers, slow down the narration pace a bit, and pause between sentences more often, and I'll be able to follow what you have to say much better.
Also, reduce the use of the word "interesting." The listener judges whether the reports you present are interesting.
@@JeannePeters-v7g,
Yes. Also "fascinating".
Hi sir. Just a question below;
Which would be ideal in the ff ?
A. Fasting window 18 hrs (was 10 hrs awake 8 hrs sleeping within fasting window)
or
B. Fasting window 18 hrs (was 16 hrs awake 2 hrs sleeping within fasting window)
Should I worry about the need for protein to build broken down muscles if I lift weights after two meals and don't eat again for 12 or more hours? Thanks.
How about chia seeds with a ginger shot (homemade, I could add extra honey) pre workout? I currently do this and have my first meal at lunch. Have maintained my weight while still struggling to get back to a workout routine. But this would postpone post workout protein til lunchtime too, since I workout early.
I usually eat around lunch time first and have half a meal (or a bigger snack - like a few hundred grams of cheese, or pork chips, etc.) in the evening, around 10 PM. Sometimes I've gone to martial arts (muay thai) training in the evening without eating anything during the day and I've noted that in this state I seem to have much better stamina, I sweat much less (not that it's a problem), and I don't have any energy/strength issues whatsoever (I'm 41 and around 10-15% body fat, if that matters).
Makes a difference for me, exercise AM after waking and 1 black coffee or espresso... break fast around 12PM-3PM depending on hunger, last meal end by 5 or 6PM. If I eat later.... I gain weight period. I'm 44 female 20BMI whole foods diet, lower carb around 30-50 grams daily.
I've trained fasted for 20 plus years and never had a problem. Initially it takes some time getting used to, but after one adapts there should be no issue. Eating 2-3 larger meals before working out as you suggest, kind of defeats the purpose of fasting and stimulating autophagy.
Thanks for covering the study confirming common sense. However, you are also stating that it confirms your bias to not work out in a fasted state and this study does cover that. Your bias is looking at the situation backwards. Exercise is putting the body into a stress state causing it to respond in a number of ways including raising human growth hormone (HGH). Exercise while fasting magnifies this response including raising HGH higher than exercise in a nonfasted state. This was studied and revealed by a researcher on muscle development in an interview with Tom Bilyeu about 3 years ago. Also found in the research is the body will not attempt to build muscle unless it can sense it has enough protein to do so. It uses about 3 markers the primary one being the amino acid leucine. As we age the ability to sense leucine diminishes accounting for older peoples difficulty on building muscle mass and maintaining. The knee-jerk solution of 'just eat more protein" is counter productive sense it is also a lot more calories. The solution is an increased amount leucine which can be bought as a sperate amino acid.
OMAD helped me shed 39 lbs / 18 kgs.
Worked out in the fasted state.
No doubt some of what I did lose was muscle.
You lost 39 pounds of muscle guaranteed
@@Kevinbbadd-c3n 😂 Nah - but I did lose loads of FAT.
If you were eating nutrient dense food to satiety, you likely lost very little muscle. Most people have viceral fat deposits within muscle, so they appear to shrink with fat loss.
@@Kevinbbadd-c3n Nah - But I did lose a load of fat.
@@Kevinbbadd-c3nno that’s not even science bro
Great explanation. I would be curious if it would be a similar impact if the feeding window is even earlier. Like feeding and exercise window 4am to 12pm. Because for me it's either this or a late window.
I am the same when it comes to eating and I workout in the evening.
Could you try one way for two or three months, then the other one for the same time and see how either one works for you? Even if one way feels better but is more inconvenient, the other might be better in the long run because it would be easier to stick with. Second choice for positive health effects is better than neither.
Data? How much strength improvements? How much weight loss?
I’ve been doing a morning run after 16-18 hours of fasting and have felt great. No low energy issues as my body taps into onboard fat stores for fuel
Since I am retired, I fast in the morning and workout fasted. That way it is all done early in the day. As a triathlete sometimes I do two workouts a day and will then do one of the workouts after eating.
The fact that nobody talks about censored book called The 23 Former Doctor Truths by Lauren Clark really gets to me. Always loved people like Rachel,she opens our eyes
what is it about?
I do late time restricted eating. I usually workout in the morning fasted, then I eat my one meal at dinner time. It’s worked for me for years. Low BF% and strength has remained relatively close to the same from my 40’s and into my 50’s. I’m 52.
I hope I’m not misunderstanding this, but in your video explaining the amounts of each ingredient in your Electrolyte Stix, you said there was 310mg of sodium, yet the product info listed right below that video says 800mg! That’s a big difference, especially for people like me with hbp. Is that info right?
Question: how long should you wait after a meal to exercise so you can be in somewhat of a fasted state?
that's one of those things that hindsight makes you say "Duh!" - you're fasting to lower blood sugar. Exercise uses stored energy. Doesn't matter if it's lowered due to time fasting, or exercising, you're lowering it either way. We know the negative effects of too much glucose, so it makes sense that lowering the glucose *however we do it* would have beneficial results. Still, it's good to see a study prove out 'common sense'.
What if I also do red light therapy or a sauna with exercise during my fasting window?
Love your videos. What can I do to stop me from being hungry all the freaking time?? I've been doing keto for a few months now and I was able to lose about 15 lbs, but the weight has just stopped dropping over the last two months. I started into menopause about a year ago and the way my body is changing so fast is terrifying. I probably need to do less "keto" friendly products and stick to just meat and veggies but my cravings get so out of control I can't do it. Just meat and veggies is a sad and boring life to me. I need something to stop me from wanting to eat all the bad things.
Eat like me high carb low fat and small meals
HRT. It's been great! Low hormones will influence Insulin sensitivity.
Not sure if this holds up for woman in (peri)menopause. Dr Stacey Sims says that most of these kind of research has been done on mostly men. Woman that fast don't tend to tap into fat but muscle because they're in a katabolic state
Thank you for saying it. I fast for 24 hours a time or 2 a month. I just finished a 48 hour fast and had trouble sleeping both nights. I'm not at all sure that I'm not overproducing cortisol and harming my weak adrenals this way. I'm not sure if I should be fasting more or j intermittent fasting and just eating in my window.
Did the study participants train fasted? That's an important detail that was not discussed.
I always exercise in a fasted state, just after I wake up. Instinctively I am most motivated then, just after waking, after having not eaten for close to 16 hours. Works for me, I am 70 with a waist line 11 inches smaller than my hips.
I don’t eat anything from the time I get up. Just lemon water, coffee and green tea. I fast 16-20hrs a day. I excercise during my fasting window then I eat before shower then bed. I noticed I’ve put on 10lbs since September. Probably due to the shorter days, not seeing light and stress. So I did a 36 hr fast last Sunday.. didn’t lose a pound. And felt too tired to do any extreme exercises like hiit, or sprints or pelaton like I normally do. In fact, I didn’t even work out at all last week. I just went for 3 mile walks every day. 😞
I've had the same problem in the past and after searching for help I found a TH-cam channel called " Mind Pump Show".
There's 3 trainers with 20 + years of experience who are as knowledgeable as anyone and they live by the fact we need to all including women do weight training and for people like you in your spot need to do a reverse diet because your metabolism has stopped dead because of its natural want to keep you alive because you're basically starving yourself and putting immense pressure on it by doing very hard HIIT style training.
They'd have you lean into more weight training and walking and eating protein based meals to get your metabolism ramped back up and then at some point you could cut back meals/calories and you'd get weight loss while building some muscle.
I call duh hu on this. My strength recovery was excellent combined with the carnivore dieting. I did also take creatine and some whey protein on gym days. I got quite a bit of pushback from other gym members. I am older than most training heavy (72).
Absolutely! With fasting alone, you can lose weight but may also lose muscle. Exercising alone without diet changes won't usually cause weight loss, but might result in some body recomp but with healthy eating, fasting AND exercise you've got the winning ticket!
Were the individuals in the study all men or both women and men? I follow Dr Stacey Sims and according to her that for women they should have 30 grams of protein 30 min before workouts. So confused. I do 18/6 and and usually end my fast with a snack of 30 grams of protein and then workout and have dinner after.
Out on a cruise. Not gonna get fat from all the food.
We ate the absolute best when cruising. So much to choose from but satisfied on our eating plan!
I'm only doing a 12 hour fast, (an improvement to my prior habits) but I time exercise to correspond to my last meal to deplete blood sugar/glycogen and enter ketosis earlier. Just sprint interval training on an exercise bike 3 times per week prior to dinner, and then a gentle walk after dinner. Losing about 1 pound per week and prior high liver enzymes have nearly cleared up.
I get up at 5AM, eat early in the day like 7am - 2pm and work out late afternoon / early evening depending on my schedule. Its been working for me for a long time. I tried exercising fasted in the mornings and eating later but I just didn't get the results I wanted. not terrible just not great.
Knew that was my next step but I am old so starting very slow rate.
Exercise is part of my daily life.
eat your electrolyte without an expensive brand name. It's easy. Na, K, Mg.
Others say it is better to exercise fasted, ten eat. You dont want to be digesting during a workout.
Omad all the way
Fasting late is still better for your sleep. Even knowing this study, I would prefer fasting late, but I can't pull it off. Haha early fast for me
Early time restricted eating?
lol who would have thought combining them would bring back greater autophagy.
58 years old I eat between noon and5:00 6:00 at the latest I've divide the odds once currently define the odds again keep it simple you truly only need one meal a day
Defied
Clinical trials are similar to youtube videos in that they are both just content creation. A similar BS filter necessary for both. I prefer to gain information from people who have personally experienced good results with something
Dave Asprey said he wasn't absorbing enough protein on two meals a day until he started taking digestive enzymes.
Dry fasting is the best fyi.
❤
This what I do
1 fast
2 eat whole foods
3 workout
😊
💪🏿💪🏿
Dr Boz was right from all her data to eat on sunset and at the latest sundown, or a fasting time frame when there's daylight to get most benefit exercising or not when doing the keto and carb restricted diet.
What?
She recommends fasting during day? For more autophagy?
That's pure bollocks.
We recover during night that's one! So this is the time you want to prioritize for autophagy
If skipping meals, skipping dinner, never bfast!!!!!!!!
We must eat at sunrise!!!!!!!!
Mike c'mon, were not rats in a cage...time restricted eating....not feeding.
Yes that was super confusing to me. I wonder what he really meant.
Do we really need 'science' to study this stuff so we can learn such obvious things?
I do Omad plus 5 small meals a day
Then you are doing 6 meals a day and not Omad.
These trails are floored, the gym I go to has a nutritionist who offered a program free to us. Recommended early fasted workouts and then feed about an hour to 3 hours later. This gym had free dexa scans brought in for us. About 90% of us actually lost lean mass muscle, not just a little but about 4-9 pounds over 3 months. We were all pissed. Nutritionalist said we need to consume 30 grams of amino acids in prework to help the breakdown of muscle to feed the fasted cardio or lifting. I call bullsht on this one. We saw first hand fasted lifting/cardio will eat you lean mass up.
dexa has no way of discerning what exactly is inside the "lean mass". it merely scans the volume of different parts of your body and separates them out into fat vs lean mass. it cant tell whats actually in the lean mass. your muscles cells all contain water, and your muscles cells have intercellular fat. as well as glucose stores.
You lost muscle? So if that were the case, were you weaker in the end of this 3 months? No, you weren't. the composition of your muscles changed. you didn't lose 4-9lbs of muscle.
@@ge2719 the study only measured waist circumference and BMI, doesn’t state how they measured BMI, you can reduce BMI and still lose muscle mass.
That shocking, and good to know.
Have to watch at 0.75% speed: you talk so fast that your articulation often becomes slurred.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Christ, they knew all this 100 years ago. Why the hell in 2024 are we still doing such basic a$$ studies. This is purposeful gatekeeping, purposeful slow progress, purposeful drip feeding.
1:45 do we really need a study to validate common sense?
yes :)
I prefer regular daily exercise 1000% over fasting, hands down. Plus eating healthy, nutritious food of course.
You may have low iodine and that is a main cause of pcos.
Dr. Mike, any information on hulled hemp seeds. Might put them in my protein shake. 365 organic hemp seeds have fantastic micros and great macros. To good to be true, what's the catch, though?! ⁉️
In a perfect world, I would have the luxury of building my life around the absolute healthiest habits. Factoring in reality forces some compromises.
Doing the right things in the least effective way is better than not doing them at all.
Uh, duh... Exercise and diet are both required to efficiently effect weight loss.
"We're going to dive into these details."
Stop overcomplicating reality!
I like your videos but you loose me after a bit ...I can’t quite put my finger on it ..
I fasted for 2 hours today
😂 That’s quite an achievement! 👏👏👏
@ Yes and i have 6 pack abs
Funny how a Frugivore species is trying to fast and avoid sugar 😅
Humans aren't frugivores
@ Yes we are we came from apes
The best fasting method is when I go to bed and wake up after 8 hrs of sleep and have my coffee and bagel.
