Fasting and Exercising

Daily fasting is so very difficult for me to keep at.

I've been looking at a lot of youtube videos of intermittent fasting lately. I've learned something new: exercising and hunger go together like a hand and glove. It's a good thing to do your strenuous, or even moderate exercise after a few hours - say, over a half a day - of not eating. I don't know the scientific reasons, but I heard it from several alternative doctors, that it made sense to me.

The ideal suggestion was to do your walking, running, aerobics, about mid-morning, THEN after cooling off and shower, go eat your break-fast about noon. This kind of hunger-exercising is apparently good for the brain.

I think this scripture also tells us, if we can see it, that fasting is good for the brain:

Isaiah 58:8 (speaking of the fasting that the Lord chooses):

"Then your light shall break forth like the morning,
Your healing shall spring forth speedily,
And your righteousness shall go before you;
The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard."

That first line, I'm now convinced can refer to clear thinking, because when you fast you can think more clearly, and it is like a light has broken forth. You just have to experience it.

Go to youtube and find videos on intermittent fasting and exercise. There are many I couldn't see them all, but this one is the one that introduced this concept to me at first:
