Finishing a 7 Day Fast

    Hes not talking about specific exercise related fuel needs but requirements over an entire day . For example you could lie in bed all day and do nothing but your still going to lose weight if you eat under your maintenance.Doing this would be so much easier for a fat person because they have such a large reserve of fat. A person's biggest draw from calories isn't the 1 or 2 hours of exercise you might do but the amount of calories your body needs to sustain itself in a 24 hour period . Its much tougher for a 190lb guy at 12% body fat to go on a large deficit compared to a 250lb guy at 35% body fat. The first guy needs to eat every so slightly below maintenance or even at maintenance and use extra exercise to bring him into a deficit . The 250lb guy can cut very aggressively because he has so much fat available to make up for such a deficit . Exercise volume can be low because the deficit in his calories is so large . I'm sure with a Masters in Exercise in Nutrition and Exercise science he knows about Keto. There's nothing wrong with Keto if that's how one truly likes to eat however it's not 'The way' People that enjoy carbs can get just As good results . People get so dogmatic about diet that's it's almost like a religion. It's borderline food orthorexia

    Couldn't agree more. If no fat left to burn for energy the body might go into panic mode. But I don't think author ever experienced ketogenic diet otherwise he wouldn't make statements that you need carbs for exercise.

    orthorexia? We are made to be addicted to variety of things incl. food.

    But what I have noticed with fasting is that I could temporarily take control over the body and mind. Feels bit of superhuman
