    Not entirely dismissing it…as I said, tiny population do it right, and most can’t. I’m dismissing it for the IRL population, not someone on the other side of the internetz who I would likely...

    I'd say anytime someone skips a meal, even I mentally react like "wait, what?" and that's someone who understands why you might want to fast or do intermittent fasting. We've just been programmed...

    The other part of that I’ve noticed IRL is that literally zero people who skip meals have decent physiques. I realize it works when everything else is dialed in (for the .1% of the population...

    For sure. I have been suprised that general training output when fasted can be OK (I mean, not competitive level 1rm stuff) but there is definitely a mental energy hit that the brain takes when I...

    Yeah that’s very appropriate; when people try to act like intermittent fasting has them more energetic I just grin. I mean I’ve fasted for 7 days before; I intermittent fast OFTEN and there’s...

    There was a time early on when my wife and I both noticed irritability in me when I toyed with low carb. after a few practice runs at full 36hr fasts it faded away completely. however, I would...

    Yeah, even Jesus loved to eat! But he also fasted. I’m just not there yet, and I get far too irritable for any IF.

    totally get it, the hardest part of fasting is the social protocol. it "can" be done. But I'm also at a point where small things like having dinner with my wife is often more important so I...

    Good points which I need a reminder of as well. The deficit induced irritability is getting me also. 😔
