Question for my strong friends: training fasted or not?

Context: had a long conversation with a friend who does CrossFit competitions. He says training fasted is terrible 🤣

I feel like it works great but I don’t want to discount his advice either. Maybe there’s a middle ground?

He says that I should take a banana, oats, protein and creatine right after training. I have creatine during training but I eat for the first time 6-7 hours after training.

(If you don’t train don’t answer please)

I love how many have replied to this!

Ultimately, each to their own

I am a coffee drinker, and found fasting meant that by 11ish each day I was a hungry caffeinated mess

So breakfast (eggs and steak is best) most days

Then weight 2x per week and boxing 2x per week, plus some dog walks and beach swims

Do you feel different? What does your body say?

There’s a TikTok/YT account called “Body By Mark” which I always find fascinating, as he stops people on the street that are in good shape to ask what they do, and the answers are so varied

Ultimately it’s a process of verify. Just trial and error on yourself
