- gbrown 8y agoFor me, endurance exercise is where I really need salt to avoid cramping. The more hours exercising, the more salt/calories I need to ingest. High intensity doesn't hit my body quite the same way. Just an anecdote, YMMV
- serpix 8y agoInteresting! Did my first two day fasting this weekend and felt awesome the whole time. I broke the fast yesterday evening because I want to hit the gym today. Do you continue the fast after HIIt or do you eat some protein after? How do you feel after such an intense workout in a fasted state?
