Today is the second day od lifting during fasting. I did not post yesterday as I wanted to see a possible trend before comment.

Yesterday was back day, and I probably had a total lift gain of about 5% compared to the same circuit last week without fasting. I did have to take longer breaks between sets, to keep the HR low, but the lifts were controlled.

Right after the workout I had my protein drink and was a couple hours later till I had a chance to grab some solid food. Not used to that. Come dinner time I actually ate about 1/3 of what I prepared and layed down for a rest but fell asleep.

This morning was leg day and I was very curious how this would transpire as it is my heaviest day. I went in and still made increases over last week, but really had to rest between movements on supersets (which I have dubbed not-so-super-sets).

After the workout I had my protein shake and when I got home finished off dinner and made adjustments to my food entries.

I will continue this routine for this week, and see how the weigh-in on Monday reflects the trial.

It is a bit different feeling since there is more rest times between sets and not really back to back drop sets and supersets, but the overall goal for now is to maintain muscle mass, and burn off this blasted belly fat.

Thanks to knuckles and mahjohn for the suggestions.

I believe the longer you do this, the more your body will adapt to (FBOD) Fat Burn on Demand. Its a slower process than Glucose burning but its steadier and you wont burn out as quickly. Keep going this way. It will only get better.

Good luck on the diet, Bigguy! You remind me of the days working out at Bill Pearl's Gym in Pasadena, where the Rose Parade happen's on New Year's. I really was honored to work in his gym, and be a lifting partner, with a female medalist in the Olympics of that day. I remember I was shocked how powerful she was.
