Joint issues

whatever

Used to do the same with keto and fasting and definitely felt the energy was ‘missing’ in the gym. Tried getting in the gym earlier in the day to lessen the effect. I think I ended up trying to coordinate so I would have eaten on the workout day. Either way though, I found I would be either exhausted at the gym itself or later in the day (if I was fasting for the rest of the day). I reckon it was probably to with not taking in sufficient nutrients (setting myself up here) and should have taken some sort of supplement.

whatever should have taken some sort of supplement.

The supplements are a bit of a mind field though, they can fuck up the other things you are trying for like keto or fasting. At the minute I’ve just taken it on the chin and accepted I won’t be doing any PBs in the near future.

Coffee and creatine lads. Or speed.

Too much coffee and I get a bit shaky when I’m lifting, creatine drinks make the keto / fasting almost impossible as they spike your insulin for days, and speed… the less said the better…

Lol!

Amps Haven’t done Keto, but creatine works fine for me with fasting. Speed is the obvious choice out of the three.

Oh right, didn’t know that. I guess that makes sense as (my limited understanding) is that creatine essentially increases the muscles ability to store glycogen (or something like that) so no surprise it generates an insulin spike.

bosstrabs Not tricky at all.

Should have been more specific, with this bit: or anything else that will have been cooked in veg oil of any sort. Trickier than it sounds.

It’s in all sorts of stuff you would buy of the shelf at Waitrose or Booths. The new palm oil for us Grauniad readers!

bosstrabs @Amps it feels bougie af, but I’ve switched to avocado oil.

rhouses Any real taste to it?

Amps Fairly tasteless as far as I can tell. Takes a lot of heat without getting burning when you’re cooking steaks/chicken breast on a cast iron skillet.

Cut out booze and carbs?

Behave!

Hursty

Smallman1 Bad carbs, like beer and chips, good carbs like proper vegetables/fruit are fine, also some spirits are ok too believe

Trouble with your performance due to aging you say?

A lol for Zackster!

bosstrabs Ed has Bad T, made his neck grow instead of other more appropriate body parts.

Amps My favourite Smallman moment was when he went to ask about a neck tattoo, and they quoted him for a sleeve.

The cruelty on Dave today is absolutely off the chain!

Smallman1 That’s because I’m 3 days into a 2-week home quarantine because I passed through an area of Shanghai with COVID cases.
