Answer

Intermittent Fasting is always worth it imo. The long term benefits of autophagy and increased insulin sensitivity are the main motivators for me, and weight loss is just a nice side effect.

I would try not to eat right after working out, so that the growth hormone you spike during your exercise has time to work.

Answer

You can eat a normal diet throughout the day, and your workouts and mental state will certainly feel better since you are fueling your body at a consistent rate. If you stay on IF, you can also time your workouts around your meals so your workouts feel good, but you will definitely feel hungrier in the middle of the day, and may be more prone to wanting to overeat or binge eat.

Here’s the deal. IF is a form of calorie control. If you learned how to pre-plan your meals and calories on IF, you can do the same with your meals throughout the day and not go over your calories. You can also stay on IF.

The most important thing is that whatever you pick, you are consistent in doing it.
