I have spent the last 6 months lifting daily and my muscles are the biggest they've ever been but I gained some fat too , I need to lose like 10 pounds to be shredded , is it feasible to just not eat anything at all until I'm shredded?
Fasting until shredded?

if you want to lose all your gained muscle then go for it. Otherwise if you really want to go hard eat at most 1000 kcal less than your tdee and eat 50% of your daily macro intake as proteins to make muscle loss minimal.

His penis noticeably shrunk.
Fasting cuts a solid inch off.

Lmao at "competitor". Where exactly are we competing?
Ryder Rogers
False and wrong. Show me any study where people fasted and lost no lean body mass. Hint- everyone loses lbm
Carter Hughes
Shoulders smaller
Ian Torres
Show me a study where people cutting the regular way didn't lose muscle.

Nobody who has done research would say that you lose zero muscle. There is muscle loss but it's not like you start chewing away mostly muscle when you fast. It's retarded to talk in absolutes and arguing against retarded statements. From my own experience fasting is the best thing I've incorporated into my fitness regime.

If I were to do this would I still be working out? I've been cutting for a week, down to 1,300 cals now and I feel completely comfortable with daily weights. Would you have the energy to still lift on a ten day fast or would you just wait it out?

My personal experience
>Old fashion cutting
Feel like shit, lose a lot of strength but not a whole lot of muscle
>OMAD (20 hours fasting, 4 feeding)
Feel great, lose no (or very little) strength, lose "muscle" which I think is just muscle glycogen
>Multi-day fasting
Feel great, lose a lot of strength and muscle

If it's your first time fasting you will probably feel like shit. Lifting weights while on 5+ day fasts is possible but from my own experience takes time to get used to fasting first. Look into the /fast/ general and make sure you got electrolytes in you if you do anything physical past 3 days. Again, this is just my take on it. Stay safe mate.

185,4-161,4= 24 lbs
10 days fasted
considering a TDEE of 3000 kcal which is pretty high then he could have lost a maximum of 30.000 kcal which translates to 4,285 kg of lost fat (30.000/7000) = 9,45 lbs
24-9,45= 14,55 lbs of lost weight that is not fat. Probably a lot of water because of his depleted glycogen storages.
We can't really know how much of that loss is due to water. But even if this would amount to the majority of those 14,55 lets say 60% that is still a lot of lost muscle mass --> 1-0,6= 0,4
0,4 x14,55 = 5,82 lbs
You can build at most 2 lbs of muscle a month as a natty. So he lost at least 3 months of training progress in 10 days.

thanks mate safety is always important to me. I'd love to try a long fast while maintaining as much muscle as i can

20/4 is not OMAD. OMAD is 1 hour tops eating window, more like 15-45mins. 20/4 is just IF, intermittent fasting.

Fasting is bullshit it literally doesn't matter when you eat your calories.
