Not sure I believe that, but I do think cardio is overdone by many people. It can actually slow your metabolism (in some people).

I do a short session of cardio before my lifting. 5-6 minutes and 3x sprints of 20-30 seconds of 90% max heart rate. At least, that's the goal!

This time I did my usual workout (I do full body, every day, same workout). My workouts got better every day, rather than worse. It was also the best-tolerated water fast I've ever done.

Wow! Good to know. I'd like to do a 3-day fast every year to reset my immune system. The worst part is I feel hyper and my concentration is the pits. I suppose that is the instinct to go look for food. It also makes my sleep miserable.
