Early morning fasted steady state, like a big walk or ruck can help with fat loss.
I would never train fasted. Have some OJ at least. Training with low blood sugar obliterates the thyroid and causes chronic cortisol = you'll go bald as a reward.

Thanks for your input 🫡
Going bald is a new one that I never heard before. Any evidence for it?
My understanding is that high cortisol levels are negatively correlated with high testosterone levels. So if you’re in a high state of stress for too long, your testosterone drops. And I’ve heard that high testosterone is correlated with hair loss. That’s why men tend to bald and women don’t. Correlation doesn’t equal causation though. Probably some other factors involved. If cortisol brings down your testosterone then it’s hard for me to believe that fasting is going to make you bald. Plus Muslims fast every year for an entire month. We should see higher rates of balding in those populations but the highest rates of baldness are among whites.
