  1. I just completed a 96 hour fast last night. I worked out with heavy weights, low reps, one working set every day of the fast as an experiment. No soreness or other problems, no loss in strength.

  2. It takes a while to get used to and if you will work out with very high volume it will cause problems. On a long fast you can work out every day with 1-2 working sets in the 5-10 rep range and recover. On the last day before you break the fast you should do more volume and this will cause lots of adaptations.

  3. Thanks for the reminder to take my 10g creatine for the day!

  4. Some occasional fasts of 3-4 days are great for stress. No more waking up at 4am from nightmares for me.

  6. All my biases are now confirmed. Thanks! Especially with binge eating being related to thyroid, which would point to junk carbs being heavily involved in triggering it.

  12.  fir st  I find it FEELS harder, but performance is the same or even a little better, due to the adrenaline. The strength anyway. I would not try doing german volume training while fasted or anything like that.

  13. As far as free will goes, free will is kind of a nonsense concept. A deterministic algorithm is still making decisions. Your brain also still makes decisions. That doesn't mean you don't have free will just because you can't magically completely change your situation. It just means you have limited decisions to make. Even if you are some dictator of a powerful nation that is going to be the case, Stalin and Hitler can't choose to live forever or float up to the moon on a magic carpet because those things are not possible for them.
