Funny you mention being anal, as I'm kind of anal about folks posting the actual studies they refer to, as well as not taking time to provide information i've been told will probably be disregarded.

Seriously, though, let's narrow down what you're asking about here.
Are you taking 1 day of fasting or three?
What benefits to the GI and will that matter for *you*.
How do you think your first day of training will be be if you have fasted for 72 hr *right* before a blast?

Hey Scott,
Sorry for the late reply!
First off! I expect you to know telepathically what my question means without me providing any context! You're Scott Stevenson for god's sake!
I phrased this question badly, and provided not much context.
This is the study I was referring to:
Study Finds that Fasting for 72 Hours Can Regenerate the Entire Immune System – Awareness Act
From a health standpoint it stands pretty neat; but a crucial thing you mentioned is; how would my performance in the gym be after 3 days of not eating? How long would it take me to refeed back up properly?
My biggest problem like many in this endeavor is: I'm simply not a big eater. I can train myself to rhabdo no problem ...one of the reasons I love FT. But it's the constant influx of calories, and trying to push the bw to establish set points that is extremely challenging, I would probably eat 2 meals a day if I didn't do this.
This is why I'm always trying to find means of improving digestion, and make myself hungrier; whether it's 10 minute walks, 10 hours between my last meal and first meal on non-training day like Jordan Peters has talked about in one of his videos.
