Restrictive fasting, for instance, is known to potentially promote the release of growth hormones throughout the duration of daily fasting. Concentrations of growth hormones tend to increase if you combine it with resistance exercises in the evening. As you probably know, it also increases testosterone production when you sleep, which in turn increases growth hormone and IGF production. We're talking about anabolic hormones that essentially promote the preservation of muscle tissues. So, a regimen that entails daily restrictive fasting and evening resistance training can enhance the preservation and augmentation of muscle tissues.
Essentially, you want to increase autophagy throughout the day to catabolize stored sugar and body fat but in the evening, you actually want to suppress autophagy in order to promote the preservation of muscle tissues.
So, resistance training is what activates your skeletal muscles and provides metabolic factors that promote muscle retention. Therefore, doing resistance exercises in the evening is the best option. This advice applies to women, including older postmenopausal women, as working out your muscles is part of what keeps you young.
Sarcopenia, which is age-related muscle wasting, is a major catalyst for premature mortality, especially in women. It is said that the older you get, the more muscle and hormone loss you experience, leading to a gradual decline. However, I am saying that if you keep working out, this doesn't necessarily have to be the case.
