Marek_Zmazur Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Hi guys, I want to start this topic to get some advice on how to fast on a work/training schedule. My daily routine during the week looks like this. Work: 7:00 to 17:00. Training/Biking: 18:30 to 21:00 My eating window is between 7:00 and 15:30. I try not to eat at least 3 hours before training. By the time I am done training I am depleted and already fasting. I feel like fasting after training affects my recovery time. What do you guys think? Any feedback is appreciated.

Administrators SickBiker Posted February 14, 2020 Administrators Share Posted February 14, 2020 Sorry for late reply, I'll paste the link to a great source of knowledge about that below, but first my observations: if you train from 6:30 pm to 9 pm, it can largely affect your sleep quality, as your body is in a working, or even fight or flight state and there is probably to much of cortisol in your system; that can diminish your recovery (you may get to sleep "enough" hours, but with to little of the deep sleep phase), not eating 3 hours before the endurance training and then fasting for a whole night, might not be very good overall.
