It supplies the electrolytes you need for extended fasting to prevent and medical conditions or otherwise miserable feelings while fasting
@Felix Have you cut weight before?
Let's talk in DMs.
I cut 15 lbs to make 155, and later 10 lbs to make 170.
You can water cut 8 lbs in 12 hours relatively easily, for a competition.
depending on your weight class, of course.
Any good protein powder recommendations? This is what I'm using atm
That's a good one. Optimum Nutrition is also one of my favourites
Musclepharm combat powder is pretty good
I've always like Optimum Nurtrition - Gold Standard
High carb, low fat, high bicycle = win
@Tanner - SC McNabb?
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN without the ear gauges
I use the bulk purchased stuff in sealed bags.
I like it unflavored and bland. Confirmed Anglo 😉
What are some decent thing you goys would recommend to snack on besides protein bars or something similarl
Atkins Bars
lol jk
well, not entirely, they're pretty good but I know that's not what you're asking
Depends on your diet and if you track your macros, but any kind of trail mix is easy to buy in bulk and if you buy or make the right kind it is an easy snack. I cut up sausage into bite size bits because I am on keto currently. "Epic" brand bars are also a great natural alternative to the traditional protein bar, and even though they have less protein, they are made from meats and fish and berries and have always been my favourite snack for car rides.
I'm also on keto right now. I basically just eat a lot of vegetables for my snacks.
Then there is of course the classic protein shake in a shaker bottle to sip on
I've been going through a lot of peanut putter, because vegetables on their own can be pretty bland
honestly, with all the peanut butter I've been eating, I don't even know if I'm in ketosis anymore, but, I'm not gaining weight, so, whatever
I do the same thing, Jacob. Also berries like blueberries, raspberries and blackberries are great low carb tasty treats
If youre ever worried youre out of ketosis just do a 48 hour fast on saltwater and you'll be back in it
I had sushi tonight with my wife because she can finally have it after being pregnant. Just gonna fast the next two days to get back into ketosis. The keto strips you can buy are also a great investment for $8-$10
That saltwater fast seems really hard
Then again, keto is a lot easier than I though
My mom is amazed that I don't eat bread
It's pretty simple- just don't eat. It sounds a lot scarier than it is.
Dude I love eating so much
I've been flying through these peanut butter fiber one bars since I first had one last week, they're just 👌 👌 👌 👌
@BigBadSaxon - ID What is the significance of the salt?
You should consume a certain amount of salt and potassium while fasting
Does it make it easier, though?
There aren't any calories, so it still serves the purpose. You just have to make sure you're not consuming it in too high of a concentration
Scroll up for that snake juice video with the annoying dude
what if I did a beef broth fast?
has a lot of sodium
I personally don't know enough about the topic, perhaps someone else does
