simply put can I grow muscle on a fast?
high protien low carb diet. be sure and take a multivitamin if you a planning on fasting. if u dont have any intake you wont gain very much muscle and your digestive system will slow down making it harder to burn the fat
If you’re not eating enough, your body sort of panics and goes into what’s known as starvation mode, slowing down your metabolism and fat-burning processes. If it’s being starved of calories, it has to hold onto all of the energy stores and calories that it can. Think of your body as a furnace. If there’s not enough fuel, the fire just simmers for a long time without really burning hot. If you’re not eating enough calories to match your activity level, your body just simmers and no real progress is being made. The danger is that people react to this type of plateau by eating even less, which of course just makes the problem worse and harder to recover from. It’s a horrible cycle that can lead to real problems.http://healthresources.caremark.com/topi…
not very quickly. i dont know if you should be fasting and lifting at the same time. thats a recipe for passing out.
i don’t think so. you need to eat healthy and exercise at a rate that’s good for you and then gradually increase the intensity. You don’t want to harm your body. Unfortunately this process is slow no matter what any other magazines say how you can lose weight fast ‘cuz it’s not true.
