Good to see that this thread garnered a mature, understanding, and thoroughly reasonable response from which a good debate will no doubt grow.

Is that tom numbers?

One of my mates is doing this, so i know a bit about it! You cannot eat or drink from dusk to dawn. I presume that not taking on board any water during a game or in training would be the most problematic thing. Other than professional athletes this doesn't cause much of a problem for professional folk - though it's a nightmare working in a chipper i'm told.

Folk with illnesses are excused, That defender who came from Spurs to Deportivo did it - i think - he certainly fasted for something.

he cant eat during daylight hours which is roughly 6.30/7.00am thru til bout 7.30pm. so he eat before training no probs from what i can see

It's a very good question Tom. Surely the fact he wont be eating throughout the day will effect his energy levels?

[stevenage_kop]

if he has a pasta meal first thing in morning the carbs will burn thru the day

Yes it is.

There was a thread about this on KT last year.

I think we came to the conclusion that it probably wouldn't make a difference and he'd be well advised by the people at the club etc.

Having said that I thought you were allowed to drink still and it seems perhaps not...that might cause a problem I guess but he was fine last year wasn't he?

[Tom]

He must surely have a dip during the day. This will surely affect his performance I think l(no disrespect intended BTW to his beliefs).

[Tom]

Yes it is.

Greetings tom

I'd be far too weak to run about if I was him.

You'd have thought so but I think the body is quite adaptable in cases like this.

I think he'll be fine .
