"This suggests plenty of calories plus strength training is in the running for a longevity lifestyle."
Why not both ?
Relatively high calorie diet, over the long run, to support strength training and a high level of exercise ... but regular (weekly ? twice-weekly ?) fasting to partake in what appear to be the benefits of forcing your body to change gears and clean house (so to speak).
You can have a relatively high calorie diet measured over the course of a week or a month while still fasting regularly.
- sambe 10y agoIn this context: because the article is about total calorie consumption, not timing.
- silverdrake11 10y agoThe article does seem to be about total calorie consumption so fasting once a month or year does not seem to be beneficial as long as total calories remain the same. What doesn't make sense to me is that exercise is known to be healthy but it will always lead to an increase in calorie consumption especially cardiovascular. When you exercise you are expending more energy so that means you need to take in more energy or calories.
