Lifting weights fasted


Newbie, one year post-partum and breastfeedingHi! Had my baby exactly 13 months ago and still going strong with breastfeeding, so my energy needs are high-ish as I weight train as well. I have weaned off caffeine to help with my anxiety so I can’t use coffee to help stave off hunger.Any tips of making it through the first portion of the day if I’m not using caffeine? Baby also sleeps like crap because he’s teething.My goal eating window is 10-6 but I barely make it to 9. I need to lose about 30 lbs of body fat while also maintaining my muscle mass I’ve built over the past six months of training.Also, is it okay to weight train in the morning fasted? I usually workout at 5 am before the kids need me and I lift heavy-ish (about 200 lb squat which is light for where I used to be pre-motherhood but heavy for my post-baby body). Not sure how to do this while working to also preserve muscleAny advice would be appreciated! Also has anyone successfully done this while breastfeeding and not having the best sleep??I’m insulin resistant and prediabetic and need to reverse this before TTC again so I have a very strong “why”! via /r/intermittentfasting https://ift.tt/pIbzHG9 https://ift.tt/nGtPUOY
