2 questions about exercise /adv/ 1. is it normal to feel really

1) You're cold not just because of the sweat evaporating from your body, but because your blood is rushing out from the core of your body to the extremities, which has a higher surface area which, in turn, allows for more rapid heat loss. It's why you can see your veins in the summer time poking out of your skin, but in winter they "recede"; your body is trying to regulate itself by putting all of the blood in your body as far from your core as possible;
2) A 500 calorie diet is suicide. Your body will start to leach proteins from your muscles, rendering your exercises impotent. You should eat food at least an hour before exercising and within half an hour ending exercise to prevent autophagy. For an idea on how many calories to eat daily, go to:

Even an 18 year-old girl that's 5-foot-flat, 95 pounds, and doesn't exercise at all still needs to eat 1500 calories a day to survive.

Everything this anon says is truth. I'd like to add:

Dear god, eat, seriously you need to eat, eating disorders can kill you and are really difficult to break out of.

is it that bad for just one day though? Like an unplanned fast?

It'll fuck up today's workout, and could lead to bad habits

well that would suck, it was a really good/hard/fun workout. OK, I'll eat something.

do people who do that intermittent fasting thing just never exercise on fasting days then? Just curious.

I believe that's how it works yes. The boyfriend is more of an expert on all of tthis and just told me

>it's not healthy to fast for more than a week, maybe two. If you exercised while fasting you'd run out of energy too fast and could hurt yourself. People who fast delude into thinking they're okay by drinking lots of water.
