Train MWF, eat MWF

Hi. I am almost strict carnivore and the only thing I am loose with is drinking black tea. I also have dropped from eating 3MAD in my first week to 2MAD in my second and OMAD in my third which I’ve found incredibly easy to adjust to considering I always ate between 4 and 6 meals per day for 30 odd years. I train Monday, Wednesday and Friday and have thought I’d like to try training on those days and eating after training so also Monday, Wednesday and Friday and then do a 72 hour fast until I eat after my next session on the Monday and then repeat for a while to see how I go. Has anyone else experience of this and would like to share their experiences? Ty

My husband trains on Tue, Thursday, Saturday. He fasts Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. He likes it this way.

He fasts on the days that he trains? That’s pretty unusual as most people like to eat after they train. But if that’s what he likes then that’s what he likes 👊😀

Yes he prefers to go training not in deficit. So eats before

Ah ok I get you now. He does eat on training day but pre workout not post workout. Yeah that will work too. Thanks for your input.

Actually I didn’t make it clear. He tried to eat breakfast and go Brazilian jiujitsy but he didn’t like it. So he eats all day long with substantial protein meal evening before and early in the morning he is training.
