So You Want To Know More About Fasting

Fasting gets marketed as a metabolic shortcut, a biohack, or a way to "trick" your body into burning fat. Reality check: it's none of those things. Morgan and Sabrina break down what fasting actually is (and isn't), how it affects blood sugar, insulin, glycogen, and fat use, and why burning fat isn't the same thing as losing body fat. They dig into why fasting can feel good for some people, where the perceived benefits often come from, and how hunger hormones adapt to eating windows over time. The conversation also covers when fasting can backfire (especially for athletes, high-stress humans, and anyone with performance goals) and why calorie balance, training quality, and sustainability matter far more than meal timing rules. No hype, no fear-mongering. Just physiology, context, and honest nuance so you can decide what actually makes sense for you.  Black Iron Nutrition Book a Free Discovery Call Free Macro Calculator Free Downloads Black Iron Blog
