Workout and Fasting Timing
Workout and fasting timing matches session difficulty to fed or fasted state—hard work fed, easy work optionally fasted, window shifted to support both.
Workout and fasting timing decides whether sessions sit inside the eating window, at the fasted edge, or after a deliberate pre-workout meal. Hard intervals and heavy compounds usually need carbs and protein within a few hours; easy zone 2 can tolerate morning fasts for some athletes.
Sliding the eating window beats forcing fasted PR attempts.
Common questions
-
Should you move your eating window for evening lifts?
Yes—many athletes shift the window later or add a training-specific snack inside the window so afternoon or evening hard sessions are not fasted by accident.
