Did you still do your weight training through the fast?noko wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 2:54 pm Normally do intermittent Fasting, 80% of the time, 2 meals a day but also will do 24hr or OMAD. Done 36hr, 52hr, 3 Day and 5 Day. On both the 3 Day and 5 Day I lost muscle strength (determined by max weight and repetition ability on various Planet Fitness machines). It took weeks to recover the loss in muscle strength.
I keep doing the weight training when fasting (I stop to the aerobic exercise) and I find only a tiny loss of strength that comes straight back after the first feed.
