>2000mg of sodium (preferably Himalayan Pink Salt) max >4700mg of saltless potassium max (NoSalt/LoSalt are high potassium-low sodium salts available in grocery stores or Amazon and the like) Mix these in a liter of water and sip it throughout the day. The apple cider vinegar and lemon are optional but recommended for 10+ day fasts. You can also do this if you feel lightheaded, weak, dizzy, nauseous, etc., on shorter water fasts. Don’t do this while intermittent fasting.
>Won’t I go into starvation mode? No. It only occurs at extremely low body fat (4% or less).
>Can I workout? Yes. But don't overdo it.
>Will (something with calories) break my fast? Yes.
>Can I drink coffee, tea, and diet soda? Or anything with artificial sweeteners? Black, unsweetened coffee and tea - YES! Diet drinks and artificial sweeteners are debatable (continuously)
>Do I need a multivitamin? No. Fat burning provides sufficient vitamins
On day 2 of a 60 hour fast (breaking tomorrow at noon), don't have abs yet, fasting is a meme.

NEED SECOND OPINIONS:
6'4" 245lbs. Goal: Fat loss while maintaining lean mass. I lift mon/wed/fri
Look at this IF protocol:
Mon >Eat 12:30pm - 8:30pm Tues >FAST Wed >Eat 12:30pm - 8:30pm Thurs >FAST Fri >Eat 12:30pm - 8:30pm Sat >cheat day / refeed Sun >FAST
That's three 40 hour fast windows and a full 24 hours per week of eating time. Too extreme? I've read most of the real hormetic stress benefits / autophagy / fat oxidation occurs from the 24-48 hour window.
Alexander White
You're welcome pal we're all gonna make it just continue to sip on the salty water.
you would consider a refeed if attempting to build while fasting yes, but I would recommend a longer fasted period. You will not lose any effective muscle mass even on longer fasts, and it will rebuild quickly afterwards.
Doing 20/4 on maintenance now, how am i supposed to get 2.5k kcal down in 4 hours without eating crap and without passing out after it because of the insulin release?
Wyatt Campbell
This is informative thank you

About 48 hours into a fast, complete with cardio and lifting, and my keto strips are coming up negative is this normal?
Ian Johnson
can take up to 90hrs.
Joseph Morris
new here, 72 hrs done. dry fasted the first 24hrs, drank snake juice through the next 48 hrs. lost 10lbs, is it alright if i down one of these bad buys? it feels like im going insane without something
I mean Im also craving food like a motherfucker. fuck me this is hard. i promised myself id lose 60lbs in a month but i want to break already after 3 days.
Had a whoosh today of 3kg at 35 hours into an 100hr.
So I saw 67kg on the scale today. Feels good.
Tyler Miller
That's a shitty state of mind lad Fasting is 90% mental effort
Jace Reyes
If you don't eat for a long time wouldn't the body burn the muscles first?
Jackson James
sup bois, bulked a little too hard and then went on vacation and gained 5 lbs so I'm back on the fast game for a week or two.
Even though I feel like a fatass right now I still weigh a lot less than I did when I was a fatass last year. It's remarkable how much your frame of reference shifts. I'm the highest weight I've been all year (190 @ 6') and feel like a fat piece of shit, but a couple years ago this would have been a weight loss goal.
Carson Jones
If you are going to break it, make it a keto meal, and then start again.
Hudson Morris
Caveman has no food for a week. Body digests muscles instead of fat. Now caveman can't hunt and get more food as effectively and has non utilised fat stores.
Does your suggestion make much sense?
Samuel Garcia
not until about 4% BF, if you get to that point while fasting, you've gone too far.
Keep CICO in mind. If you do cave have a small meal, with little carbs, maybe do IF for a few days before going back into a long fast. Don't binge on shit food and undo all your hard work.
i got 4 days off work so im just gonna give my car keys to my mom and last for the full week milestone then ill come back to the topic of having a sip. fuuuck
On day 3 of nofap and fast. I've done 11 days of fasting before. This time is ez. Going for 35 days. Don't worry I've got pink salt and multivitamins. Also green tea.
I was only going for a 2 day fast, but I've done a 7 day before and a 3 day dry fast so I'm not a /fast/let. Right now I'm going for something similar to this user except not doing the retarded 9 hour IF scheme or the cheat day. Basically I'll eat right after I workout and then don't eat until I work out again, and fast on the weekends.

I've been taking them since I was a kid. It's just habit. I know I'm just pissing them out.
Levi Morales
i hope its not the sugar coated flintsones ones cuz then youd be a faggot along with being an autist
I can't find any kind of salts that are pure potassium here, the best I could find says it has 33% sodium chloride, rest is potassium. Is it okay to use this? Also, is table salt not recommended for making snake juice? I can get some Himalayan Pink Salt no problem but just wondering.
Logan Barnes
Why is 16:8 not fasting? What about 18:6 or 20:4?
Colton Bennett
...
Juan Long
If its 33% NaCl and 77% KCl its probably OK to use, just add some plain salt to adjust the ratio. 20:4 is the earliest point where you may start to see benefits. OMAD (22:2) is close enough but good for maintenance. You may still lose fat on 16:8 but not optimally. For losing fat, long fasts are best.
Carson Bell
Ignore my ratio typo ;)
Leo Young
So around what day do I still feeling like ass
Jordan Hill
don't you want some delicious curry? just break your fast
take your thyroid meds and fast. Pills are negligible.
Tyler Gonzalez
Good to know, thanks.

New Snake Juice Recipe:
tsp = teaspoon
youtube.com/watch?v=1onQ0nxgWFM -Water = 2L (not limited to 2) -Potassium Chloride Powder = 1tsp (2560mg) [Spa = Cloruro de Potasio] -Sodium Chloride (Himalayan Pink Salt) = 1/2 tsp (840mg sodium) -Sodium Bicarbonate = 1 tsp (1080mg sodium) -Magnesium Sulphate = 1/2 tsp (200mg magnesium) You can cut out magnesium and it won't kill you. We didn't use it before. -Drink as much snake juice as you want! You can make another batch after you are done with the 2l. You can have 4l a day and it won't be a problem. -Don't drink fresh water, only snake juice. -Cayenne pepper optional. (watch old recipe)
Isn't this too much sodium? It is 4480mg of sodium, DOUBLE the ammount recommended by the Amurigan Hear Association
Isaac Long
Wait, I made a mistake. I was also counting the potassium as sodium, sorry
Lincoln Ross
Monster has less caffefine and zero calories it's also larger than a standard cup of coffee by 1/3rd.
Ryan Ortiz
Low sodium is much worse for you than high sodium. Your kidneys are excellent at filtering it out.
Jeremiah Johnson
Is the high blood pressure due to excess sodium a meme? Is it a conspiracy of some sort?
Pretty much, you have been lied to about salt intake.
Hudson Davis
I just got back from vacation and start back at the gym today. I'm doing 5 day fast, 1 day eat, repeat. Whats the best lifting routine to speed up fat loss? I was doing 5/3/1 but cant there be something better?
Hudson Sullivan
Thanks bro, will check out your vids later
Ian Gray
>let family know im gonna start fasting from 280 to 180 >get down to 230 in a month >they think im starving myself to death, so they bought me a large meat lovers pizza and half liter bottle of coke just now
i mean, fuck. im doing so well but they see it as me being anorexic and they want to "help" me.
Noah Cook
they're all obese pigs btw, my family
Henry Cruz
eat it bitch holy fuck that sounds good
Alexander James
it looks fucking good homie i wanted to post a pic but i got a pixel 2 that only takes high res af pics and the image limit is 4mb
Jacob Evans
I wouldn't worry, keep with your routine. Fasting is the most rapid way to cut fat, dont complicate it.
Asher Bell
eat the toppings, pour the drink down the drain while staring them in the eye. throw the bread in the trash. easy.
Why would you even speak to a nutritionist? they are as useful as homeopaths.
Carter Ortiz
The thing about unsweetened coffee and tea being okay is wrong.
Joshua Wright
Why?

Liam Rivera
Don't speak about fasting then. Most nutritionists are retarded, uneducated and absolutely paranoid about malnutrition. They will preach the standard low calorie low fat bullshit that will make you worse in the end. 80% of what comes out of their mouths is psuedoscience.
