I Fasted for 72 Hours—Here’s What Really Happened

Описание: I just went three full days without a single calorie—no food, just coffee, water, salt, and a mountain of electrolyte drinks—and I recorded the whole ride. In this episode-style vlog I walk through every high, low, headache, and science nugget that hit me during a 72-hour fast.

What you’ll hear me cover:
Why I chose 72 hours and how I prepped
The ugly middle: headaches, insomnia, and nearly tapping-out
The surprising energy spike once ketosis kicked in
Fasted workout stats and what they told me about fat-burn
A plain-English breakdown of glycogen depletion, autophagy, insulin drops, and growth hormone
A realistic look at weight loss vs. long-term health
My go-to electrolyte and salt tricks if you’re crazy enough to try this
The first bites back (watermelon never tasted so sweet 🤤)

A quick heads-up
I’m not a doctor—just a trainer sharing my own experiment. Talk to a medical pro before you mess with extended fasting, especially if you have any health conditions.
