Now I'm eating only between 7-9pm everyday with some workout nutrition in the AM. My eating window consists of beef, eggs, some fish, brussel sprouts, salad, walnuts, and broccoli. And nutrition supplements (fishoil, calcium, circumin, biotin, CoQ10, collagen powder, and superfood powder.)About 1600 calories in that window. How much muscle do you think you're down in those two weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The muscles just become flat due to lack of nutrients I only went from 19-in arms to 18-in. (of course fat was lost there too) When you go to ZERO calories, the body produces HGH to spare the muscle.

GBC structure will depend on the condition and how advanced the person is. I start my clients off with super sets alternating upper and lower, working all the way up to giant sets. Keep the rest 30-60s between exercises like Squats and Chin ups and you'll be smoked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you stop lifting when you're fasting? I cannot imagine you are lifting (or running, or anything for that matter lol) while consuming literally ZERO calories.

That probably was in the middle of the fast. I'm going to try it towards the end of my fast because typically I feel my best then. I'm starting another 14-day one today.

I can't imagine you literally go 14 days without consuming any calories.. Right? What kind of supplements do you go on? I'm intrigued by this lol.

Some days I'll have mineral water with added potassium, table salt, and baking soda. Some days I go dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

braylon Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Just now, freak_of_nature said: No vitamins. Dry = absolutely no water Why no water and no vitamins? I'm curious. Not trying to imply you're wrong for doing it this way, as I have absolutely no clue what's right and wrong when it comes to fasting like this. Just genuinely curious about this.
