My walks have become walk/runs particularly during a fasting period. Energy is high, and I want to burn it. I have yet to detect a slowing of my metabolism, as I'm typically most active when I'm fasting. I do intense mat workouts twice a week for over an hour each session, and I'm at my best during a fast and can really ramp it up on the second or third day of a fast. Due to this "phenomenon", I try to plan my fasting periods to cover these intense sessions. I may eat fewer total calories over a week when I'm fasting, but have no lack of energy or mental clarity that would indicate a lower metabolic rate.
