And maybe you – I would love to hear your updates on the literature because I know that you've been keeping up with it.

But –

There was a meta-analysis looking at people that were training fasted.

And if they were doing endurance type of aerobic exercise training and they trained – they were training – it was like less than 60 minutes.

It was like less than an hour, right?

Yeah.

And this isn't – you know, this is like a zone two kind of below the lactate threshold type of training.

Then –

they had better adaptations in mitochondria, mitochondrial enzymes, you know, obviously like fatty acids being oxidized.

So, whereas if they trained when they were fed, again, it was less than an hour.

Some of those adaptations were blunted somewhat.

And for me, it was like, oh, well,

I kind of want those adaptations.

So I do like to train a little bit faster.

Now, I don't do hour-long runs anymore.

That was like a thing of the past for me.

I do my strength training.

I do not like to do fasted at all.

I have to have something like a banana.

I have to have some glucose or something.
