is it ok to jump between fasting and normal eating?

I have been IF for around 4 years now (16/8) and I was wondering if is it ok to jump between 16/8 and normal eating or less fasting time windows (12-14hrs), the reason being i can squeeze in a workout earlier during the day sometimes therefore i will have to eat after the exercise.

Answer

So your reason to wanting to eat “normal” is because you feel you have to eat after working out?

You don’t have to eat directly after working out. I’m guessing you feel like you have to get protein after working out? You don’t. Your body will ALWAYS eat away at stored fat before eating away at muscle. For your body to start eating away at muscle, you have to be very underweight and not have any excess fat on your body.
