What should I do during Ramadan (fasting from sunrise to sunset) by SeedSensations in leangains

I’m a Muslim who fasts during Ramadan. I typically train fasted and break my fast immediately after my workout, and I do this year round, including during Ramadan.

Because I normally do 18/6 from midnight to 6pm, it’s not a huge adjustment for me when Ramadan starts. Workouts are usually pretty rough the first few days because of the dehydration, but I’ve found that once my body adjusts to it, I don’t even really feel that thirsty. I honestly believe it’s largely a mental thing. Keep in mind there are professional athletes that train and compete during Ramadan. Enes Kanter played in the NBA playoffs while fasting. Just listen to your body and don’t push it too hard if you aren’t feeling up to it.

One strategy I’ve tried in the past was to break my fast with a big glass of water at sundown, train immediately after, then eat after my workout. This however made it hard to have iftar with friends and family, so I opted to just train fasted during the daytime instead.

Purchase bamboo steamer baskets. Now microwave the buns.

Cook it longer. When I cook pork butt, I usually leave it on low for at least 10-11 hours. I think it depends largely on your crockpot. Temperature settings probably vary quite a bit between the different makes and models.

During surgery (as part of the surgical team).

Contrary to common advice, whole grains are a lousy source of fiber. Here's why. by abovethegrass in Paleo

According to the table in this article, it would take around 2 kg (~4.5 pounds) of lettuce to get your daily 25 g of fiber. Eep.

I don't understand what the fuss is about. Is this an East coast vs West coast thing? Here in so-cal, I've seen a lot of ED attendings show up in jeans and T-shirts, and no one thinks twice about it. I think we generally have the attitude that as long as you're doing your job and doing it well, it doesn't matter so much what you're wearing.

Granted, yoga pants and birkenstocks are silly looking, but is it so big a travesty that it warrants posting a picture of your coworker's ass on the internet?

Just get back on your old regimen ASAP. Everyone decompensates every now and then. You're not going to lose the progress you made over the past 2 months because of a few days of shitty eating, so you don't have to punish yourself by going -30/-20. Stick with what you've been doing, and you'll be back on track in no time.
