People have this idea that they have to eat before they exercise to have the enough energy. The purpose of exercise is to make you more fit, to increase the health of the system, to build more capacity, to have less stress, etc. But make sure you don’t overtrain because overtraining will inhibit your sleep, keep your inflammation up and reduce your gains. 1. Type of Exercise – Depends on the recovery. If your recovery is poor, do an aerobic exercise, low intensity, walking, and light exercise. 2. Intensity of Exercise – High intensity work out is very beneficial to maximize growth hormone. 3. Duration of Exercise 4. Recovery after Exercise Things that Happens During Recovery Mode: • Glycogen Replenished • New Capillaries • New Mitochondria • Cell Structures Repair • Enzymes Restored • Lactic Acid Cleared – Too much lactic acid in the body, that the body can’t burn up could create a condition called Lactic Acidosis which can cause restless leg syndrome and difficulty breathing • Growth Hormone • Glucagon – A hormone that helps you burn more fat. Disadvantage of Carbo-loading: • Decrease the amount of growth hormone you can produce. • Increase too much lactic acid. • Greatly diminish the ability to burn fat – The body is burning up the dietary calories and not your own calories. • Creates insulin resistance – the body does not want too many carbs. The more insulin resistance you have, the less you’re going to absorb amino acids, proteins and nutrients. Advantage of Working out while Fasting: • Massive additional increase of growth hormone • Amazing reparative action • Enhance fat burning by 20 to 30% more • Improve insulin resistance So I recently had a question, should I work out when I'm fasting. Let's talk about that. So many people have this idea that they have to eat before they exercise to get energy for whatever reason. So first lets talk about the three or four variable to exercise. You have the type of exercise, the intensity of exercise, how hard it you go and then the duration, how long you go and then you have the recovery. So the purpose of exercise is to make you more fit, to increase the health of the system, to build more capacity more fitness, to actually have less stress, there's many benefits of exercise but those are some of them. So what you're going is you are stressing your body and then your body is going to adapt to that and prove various things. You have to be careful not to over train, because over-training will inhibit your sleep, keep your inflammation up and reduce your gains.
