I was debating whether or not I needed to include those details so I'm so glad you asked. First, I never do fasted cardio. And second, I avoid all physical labor, high stress, and high intensity activities, during my fast.

Part of the structure of fasting is determining when and were you can apply it to get the maximum benefits. That means you know you won't be involved in any intense physical activity. Instead, I set aside a day and time that I can control, and when demand for my attention is low. Part of how fasting works is to apply it in a relaxed, stress free environment.

Today, I returned to my normal IF protocol (I did 22 unintentionally) and did my regular resistance training workout with no reduction in progress. This 30 hour total cleansing fast is new to me so whether it actually lives up to its claims in my case, has yet to be determined.

Still, its something I believe everyone should try if for no other reason than to give you digestive system a much needed break. If I do this again next month, I will drink more all bottled water (I did half and half this time), and include some electrolytes.
