General IF Questions
Another form is Alternate Day Fasting (ADF) in which one eats minimal calories (<500) or
completely fasts for a full day, and then eats normally the next day.
Once crossing over into fasting for multiple days, you are no longer fasting intermittently, but
are undergoing an extended fast, outside the scope of IF.
That being said, if you need a splash (notice I said splash, and not quarter cup) of milk in your
coffee, its not going to kill you.
Also, fasting is not a free ticket to eat whatever you want during your feeding window. If you
only eat one meal per day, but that one meal has more calories than your TDEE, you will gain
weight.
Do I need BCAAs?
I only recommend BCAAs when working out fasted. If working out fasted, 10g BCAAs
immediately before, and then every other hour after exercise until the fast is broken.
