Don't knock it until you try it.. you have carbs from the day before in your system that have not been used yet. Give it some thought..
Just to clairfy. My comment was for the carbs before post |
i did IF for four years straight, so i have tried it. Always looked flat until i ate post workout, never had a good pump compared to what i get now. Sure i stayed really lean and didnt lose much if any strength, but i finally educated myself and started eating more often (every 4-5 hours) to maximize MPS and muscle gains have been the best they ever have been.
Yes, i will agree IF is a good way to CUT for some people. It provides better satiety since you get to eat larger meals, and many people (including myself) usually are not hungry in the morning. Which makes IF very easy to manage.
