It's not going to be anywhere near what you're looking for in terms of injury repair. It's going to be slightly higher due to the fact you're not creating an insulin response through eating. Just remember though, anything that triggers insulin (or enzymatic activity in the gut even, of any sort) will stop that benefit. We're talking truly fasting. Even then, it's a small benefit.50(m) looking at GH for injury repair/prevention. Is intermittent fasting actually a thing for GH release? I have seen some massive release percentage increases in literature but the lit seems a little light. Any insight?
Agree. I feel best on 1-2 meals daily. Unfortunately I can't maintain weight this way.I usually have a 12 hr window between my last meal and my first meal and eat 3 times a day.
I feel best doing this
Have you done any long term massage therapy?...so the benefit is negligible. What about 4iu daily, or some other dose, for injury repair/prevention? I'm not trying to put on slabs, but my shoulders are shit and I want to get as much out of the machine as I can before I croak.
I am convinced that the shoulder thing is joint/ligament, although I am certainly willing to try massage if it would help. Too much clicking and snapping when I do push stuff for me to think muscle and that's with lower weight, higher rep and stricter form. I am definitely willing to try the conventional stuff for results so thanks for the feedback, seriously.Have you done any long term massage therapy?
I used to have crap shoulders, always hurt, then I started to do massage therapy and now my shoulders feel really good.
I think sometimes other muscles around limiting proper range of motion creates issues.
When I say long term, I mean every 2 weeks for like 6 months then once a month after that for life.
Best thing I ever did and I’m 51
That’s what I’ve been telling people One meal is plenty!!Not sure about gh release but I definitely function better only eating one meal a day.
Guts are much better.

Catabolism and anabolism are largely misunderstood subjectsHow do you not go into a catabolic state though? That’s what I dont get . One meal every 24 hours , your body start catabolizing after what 14 hours or much less depending on physical activity ? Seems like if you wanna build muscle it’s counterproductive ? I don’t know not trying to be rude just trying to understand how this is effective as a bodybuilder .

The terms are overused as blankets nowadays.
You're not going to grow optimally, no. But you can grow, and you can DEFINITELY maintain while shredding body fat.
I supplement with EAAs 2 times during the day and have a protien shake before bed.How do you not go into a catabolic state though? That’s what I dont get .

I really don’t sweat macros other than protein. Always try to get 1 gram per lean kg of body weight.So what you sit down once a day and eat all your macros in one sitting ? I can’t even imagine trying to eat that much chicken and rice on one go haha

I have been steadily losing fat without losing muscle. I’ve become much leaner and maintained about 260-270
I train at 4:30 in the am except on Sunday. I do pretty intense always to failure training but only lift 3 times a week.Interesting . How much energy do you have when you are in the gym ?

Mine don’t pop or click anymore. Did for years. Get them to pull out your back and chest. You really cant massage the delts.I am convinced that the shoulder thing is joint/ligament, although I am certainly willing to try massage if it would help.

Are you doing deep massage therapy. I end off equilibrium and have a hard time walking to my car. But I feel so good. It's like being through a training session in itself and the endorphin release is amazing ( I get back shoulders and arms done ). I have never done long term cause of the budget thing... my plan is not all that good.Have you done any long term massage therapy?

When I had the trapped nerve I went once a week for about 3 months, then every 2 weeks for about a year, now I go once a month.Are you doing deep massage therapy.
