Treadmill Talks - Signal Over Duration

18 hr fast
6 hr controlled eating window
36 hr fast

Why?

Because insulin and liver glycogen are the gatekeepers of metabolic signaling.

18 hours lowers insulin and begins liver glycogen depletion.
The 6 hour window keeps food simple and stress low.
The 36 hour fast drives deep fat burning once insulin is low and liver glycogen is drained.

Most people fast for time.
I fast for signal.

If you don’t control insulin and liver glycogen, you don’t control metabolic signaling.

Structured rhythm. Not restriction.

Framework tomorrow.
