[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been doing IF for over 2 years so I'm pretty used to doing fasting workouts. I workout anywhere from 9 to 11:00 am and then eat. My workouts are HIIT, strength, boxing. etc. If I have to work, I just workout when I can.

As a side note, [b]I don't know what research you all have done for IF, but anything with calories breaks your fast, 10 calories or 50 or 100. Doesn't matter.[/b] So, yes even a bit of creamer, broth, etc. I drink only water or black coffee all morning.[/quote]

NP:Actually Dr. Krista Varady has researched Alternate Day Fasting. If you are being a purist, then yes, it's not true fasting because you can consume up to 500 calories on the "fasting" day. The approach is this:

Stop eating after dinner on Monday, eat no more than 500 calories on Tuesday, go to sleep Tuesday night, wake up on Wednesday and eating as much as you want. Begin process again after dinner on Wednesday. And so on. Again, you can consume 0-500 calories on the "down day" and eat whatever you want on the "up day".
