Tony Robbins

This is fascinating.

Yeah, that was the conversation this is, you know, and I had.

It's such a good question.

And it's one of the things that turns uber fit people away from fasting.

So again, let's go back to our tools.

These six different length fasts are like, think of them like supplements or think of them like a workout.

Some days you're lifting weights, some days you're doing endurance, some days you're doing balance exercise.

So when do you need to pull these tools out?

Well, the first thing is anybody doing a 12 hour fast, even the most fit person could do that.

So I would throw a 24-hour fast for a fit person on a recovery day when they're not working out.

Because now you're cleaning up the whole system.

And then the next day, don't make it a heavy day.

You'll get up, have breakfast, have your protein, your carbs, whatever combo works for you.

But a 24-hour would be a recovery day.

Whereas 12 and 13 hours every single day are pretty easy for most people to do.

Think of it as it's a rest.

When else are you giving your digestion a rest?

If you're eating all day long so you can work out, there needs to be periods where the gut is not bringing in food and trying to assimilate all of that.

I think that there's a couple of people.

I think people with eating disorders need to actually involve a psychologist or something because it can trigger that.
