LBA's and Intermittent Fasting

[DIEZEL666]

Has anyone tried using LBA's along with an intermittent fasting protocol? My friend is cutting weight for a fight coming up and used to do intermittent fasting 2-3 times a week to make weight. Basically what he would do is eat normally one day, stop eating at dinner, then not eat the next day again until dinner. Did this a couple times a week. Never lost any strength, but said he felt like ass. This year he's thinking of mixing 8oz of LBA's into his water and drinking it throughout the day on his fasting days.

Has there been any fighters/wrestlers who have tried something like this? Or anyone at all who has tried a similiar protocol? I didn't know what to tell him other than give it a shot.

I have used Intermittent Fasting but not as a consistent style of dieting. It is very effective to throw in the rotation with carb cycling or a form of CC keto dieting. I also used Intermittent Fasting my last two diets near the last few weeks.

I know that when I've used LBA as my sole protein source, with very few carbs, for about 4 days that I actually retained bodyweight. I also seem to maintain strength. I know four days isn't very long but I have a very fast metabolism, even at 35. Normally I would drop weight fast, but the LBA's do a great job of keeping me looking like normal. Even under what would be normally a very catabolic condition.
