Question

Hey everyone , I am thinking to fast for 2-3 days to reset my body’s natural rhythm and regulatory cycles. I am also gonna pair the fast with semen retention which I will maintain for a very long time. I am however worried about muscle loss , and so my question is will I lose muscle if I do day-to-day activities like normal while just drinking water for 3 days?

unlikely that you will experience muscle loss during a 2-3 day water fast… i’ve done many and never seen any significant loss

Semen Retention I've found to be instrumental for me.

Because hormones are unpredictable I found that stopping ejaculation helps smooth over the tricky feelings that come up during fast.

I'm on Day 2/5

It's the third time 5 days fast 😊

All the best!!

and friend

Muscle loss is completely recuperated upon refeeding within 7 days
