Just a quick update. It’s been 4 full days since my 5-day fast. And I did my fourth training session today as well. Chest and biceps. The program I developed will be available shortly (you can get the first macrocycle by contacting me, if you don’t want to wait). The photo is from the locker room, five minutes after the workout. Morning body weight is around 76 kg now (167 lbs.). It fluctuates up […]

The day after: First off, my body weight yesterday before breaking the fast was 70.2 kg (154.4 lbs.). Anyhow, I slept pretty well. I did have a small bowl of yoghurt, egg yolks, raw milk, and whey protein an hour after my steak tartare yesterday. Also made sure to load up on extra sodium and drinking a lot more water than I usually do – to help re-hydrate my body as it gets nutrients

My sleep was deep but short this night. I woke up at 2.45 am fully awake and energized. It was impossible to go back to sleep, so I got up and did some minor work-related tasks. Mostly internet stuff, preparing new websites and services, and such. Also, resting heart rate down 1 bmp since yesterday – and a total of 5 bmp since the start of the fast. My breaths per minute is also

October 20, 2020. FASTING – Day 2

By Joachim Bartoll / October 20, 2020 / Fasting / Dry Fasting, Personal Blog / Training, Life & Opinions / 2 minutes of reading

Woke up at 5.10 am and had my best sleep in more than half a year. Scored 88 on the FitBit app, where I usually score between 75 and 85. I usually sleep best on an empty stomach (everybody does, really) and I’ve been slacking with that the last half year where I’ve been re-gaining muscle and body weight. I’ve had my last meal at 7.00 pm for a long time now, and that

Morning weight at 75.1 kg (165 lbs). I had my last meal at noon yesterday, so accounting for digestion, I had been in a fasted state for about 12 hours when I woke up this morning. I had about ½ teaspoon of salt, 1/3 teaspoon of potassium chloride and ¼ teaspoon of magnesium sulfate together with about 0.5 liters of water (I will take this three times a day during the fast). After doing
