In this episode of the Smart Strength Training Podcast, I discuss the topic of fasting and whether women should train fasted. Emerging data shows the differences between men and women concerning fasting, including the effects on stress hormones, blood glucose levels, energy fluctuations, and hormone balance. But is this true of shorter duration fasting, and does the type of exercise being performed and women's overall nutrition status, sleep, and stress levels matter?
