Hoping for a response from Stephen Aegis :) Thinking about trying the fasting (16hrs.) Curious though about a couple of things. I have been about 90% paleo for about a year and have noticed a 5lb. gain in the past 6 months. My diet and exercise have remained good which is why I will try the IF. Have you heard of this? Is my body just getting comfortable? Also...I generally work out early in the morning at crossfit. If I am coming home from a hard workout...should I take bcaa 10 g. or can I just fast until lunch? Is it worth the extra expense? Thanks for the help!
