gym workout day before fast

Hi,
Do any of you do a gym workout and successfully survive a fast the next day. I think I'm going to have a really tough day tomorrow.

I'm planning on a mushroom and sp onion omelette for tea.

I can;t remember how it was when I started fasting, but I find I can exercise on, before or after fast days with no change in my energy levels. It doesn't appear to have any effect on my hunger either - which is funny, because before regular fasting, I would be ravenous whenever I did a lot of cardio.

I agree with you KateMac, my energy levels are so much higher when I fast. It would seem you get more fat burning going on if you exercise whilst fasting but if you reed the nerdy stuff it goes into more detail there.
