In this episode, Dr. Darsh and Dr. Altamash take a deep dive into fasted cardio and training. Is it beneficial? Or do we just think we are burning more fat?
Altamash also talks about his experience with training, sleep, stress, and nutrition during the holy month of Ramadan.
For anyone who is, was, or has thought about fasting in any capacity, this is the episode for you!
