Food is fuel, especially for serious runners who need a lot of energy. It may seem counterintuitive to fast before a workout, but some proponents claim it can benefit your performance. Fasting can also be dangerous, especially when combined with strenuous physical activity. Always consult your physician before making any extreme changes to your diet plan.
VIDEO OF THE DAY
About Fasting
A fast generally refers to a time during which you eat no solid food. You can do a juice fast or a true fast, which consists of just water. Fasts can last from just 12 hours -- such as overnight -- to as long as two weeks. A practice called “intermittent fasting” involves alternating days of water fasts with days of full meals.
Purported Benefits
A study published in the July 2010 issue of the “Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport” found that participants -- especially men -- who exercised after an overnight fast experienced greater training-induced improvements in the ability to use oxygen and energy stores in the muscles. The study looked at the effects of endurance cycling over four weeks rather than running, however. A 24-hour fast prior to running can increase your body’s ability to use fat and lowers the rate at which your body takes glycogen, or energy, from the muscles, noted a landmark study published in 1986 in the “Journal of Applied Physiology.” Endurance runners might fast before a run to train the body to use fat for energy, but these fasts last just several hours, not several days. Proponents of longer fasts claim fasting can increase your energy levels because you use less effort for digestion and can then direct that energy to your exercise efforts. A 2003 study of intermittent fasting, published by the proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, details some potential benefits, including better memory and a potential decrease in your risk of some diseases. No studies have looked at the benefits of intermittent fasting or long fasts on running performance.
Performance
Fasting can leave you with little energy in your tank. You may not be able to go as long or as fast when you have not eaten for a long time. A 1997 issue of the “International Journal of Sports Medicine” published a study indicating that a pre-exercise meal consisting primarily of carbohydrates improves runners’ endurance. An August 2011 edition of the same journal published another study showing that eating the right carbohydrates the day prior -- meaning not fasting -- can significantly improve race day performance among elite marathoners.
Health Considerations
Even short overnight fasts before a run can result in nausea, dizziness and weakness. Long-term fasts can lead to nutritional deficiencies and could cause your body to burn muscle for fuel. Burning muscle could leave you weaker in the long run and less able to tackle hills and speed. No scientific studies support fasting as a way to promote health. Fasting can be dangerous for runners with particular medical conditions, such as diabetes.

During my time I was diagnosed of Herpes and HIV/Aids I was advised not to speak to certain people about my Health “orthodox side” because they’re all lying shills and sociopaths or not take seriously scientific information on HIV because according to the denialists it’s all propaganda from the “AIDS establishment”. I decided to do some search, Rethinking AIDS and Herpes denialism in general, it caused a wave of attacks against Herbal Medicine and medicated drugs, anger, disbelief and insults with some members even alluding to the fact that I was the leader of Rethinking AIDS at the time. Of course I wasn’t and I always reminded them that I was and independent even if I was positive of those diseases. I come across a search on how Dr Itua cure people suffering from, Herpes, HIV/Aids, Hepatitis, Cancer, Epilepsy,Copd,Parkinson,Ledder Diseases, then I decided to give a try although i have had a lot of stories about Nigeria scam so I was scared of it at first then I had a second thought telling me to give a try so i finally order for it and it was sent to me through courier service and I take it for two weeks and I was healed, I still find it difficult today to be real I'm living for a year now without outbreak or taking ARV Drugs, I'm supporting Dr Itua Herbal Center and also promoting his herbal medicine online for people suffering from any kind of disease to contact him on Email...drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Or Whatsapp Number On...+2348149277967. At this point of view regarding HIV/AIDS, HERPES, GENITALS, WART, COLD SORE. You can say I was very involved with the movement; I spoke on radio shows about Dr Itua, filmed my own YouTube videos, wrote my own articles about Dr Itua and attempted to inform every person I could about this information. Thank You.

Irrespective of receiving daily oral or future injectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because i have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but i still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.
