I’m fine with the s4 first thing in the morning, it’s just the dosing of s4 & gw midday. Maybe I’ll move the time out on them. Thanks

Anytime bud
Just finished week 4 of my 18/6
Started at 235 and I just now weighed in at 227. In the weight room im still getting stronger and bf is dropping...bench, squat, shoulder presses (still for the life of me can't get my fronts to grow. Help).
I'm amazed how well this works. The first week I struggled on how much to eat during what meal.
but this is what I do
3pm right after my training - always a protein shake and 6 eggs, then whatever else I want to eat..which isn't a whole lot more.
6ish - dinner, thats whatever the wife and kids want. Healthy food 90% of the time. I eat a good amount.
9pm - to end the eating window, one last protein shake
This has been working well for me, start big then taper down to a protein shake. [emoji106]

Good to hear it's going well for you brother! IF is a very fun lifestyle too, because you don't have to plan your whole day around eating
Thank you brother, and I do have more content planned on several different things
Very true. And meal prep is to a minimum which is always good lol. I'm sort of experimenting to because I'm not counting calories or macros, I'm just eating good food till I'm full. So far so good.

Yes those are all fine to take during the fast brother. Just make sure that you follow doctors advice with medications, and if they say to take them with meals, do so
Glad you found it useful bro! Thank you
Hello everyone, I want to know your opinion about fasting in the holy month of Ramadan. Should i workout in the night during those 30 days of fasting? We are fasting without food and water from 3AM TO 7PM everyday. 
I know a guy at my gym that does Ramadan, during that time he will not go to the gym. He says it's pretty harsh. So, that s all I have to offer for ya man.

For that type of extreme fasting, the only time I would recommend training is during a fed and hydrated state. It can actually be downright dangerous to train without being able to hydrate, and can substantially increase your chance of injury
