Training Day Eating Window Flex
Training day eating window flex widens or shifts eat blocks on hard training days so peri-workout protein and carbs stay inside plan.
Training day eating window flex allows a slightly wider eat block—or peri-workout calories inside the window—on hard session days while keeping rest days tighter for structure. Flex is not off-plan binges: it is protein and carbs bracketing lifts when 16:8 would skip post-workout fuel.
Many athletes use ten hours on lift days and eight on rest days, or shift window earlier on morning training. Log the flex rule in advance.
Common questions
-
Should you train fasted on a narrow window day?
Only if session intensity is low or you deliberately practice fasted work—and refeed inside the window right after. Heavy strength and intervals usually need carbs and protein nearby.
