Refeeding and working out after 48 hour fast

I was wondering is it better to eat at night, let body recover from fast and then workout in the morning, or eat in the morning and go to gym soon after eating?

Also, how long should I recover after longer (72+ hour) fast before going to gym?

Thank you. :)

Answer

I work out while fasted so I’m not quite sure what the issue is. As long as you have your electrolytes, you’re good to go. When I say workout, I mean like 10+ miles of cardio, CORE and lifting weights too. What I read about fueling your muscles based on a study was it could be 30 minutes before or 30 minutes after your workout.

Answer

I continue gym during fasting. I do more strumength and burst during that than straight up cardio in that time.

I prefer breaking a fast in the morning, but that’s all preference. I like this because I do a rather small brothed starter, waut a few hours, then have some more. I feel like if I did that in the evening that I would rush into that second eating.
