~ official misc RAMADAN thread 2016/1437 ~

As-Salaam-Alaikum brothers and sisters, I'm a bit late this year but I hope you guys don't mind

The tradition continues, here's the link to last year's thread:http://forum.obnoxiousbrutes.com/showth...hp?t=167790761

DISCLAIMER

MODS:The thread is not supposed to be moved in the R/P subforum(since we're not debating anything here, it's about sharing our experiences, giving out lifting advice along the fasting hours and talking about our feasts and feels during this month among other things), as every year I'll clear it with a mod to keep an eye on the thread (PMing MsChill now) and

TROLLS:Keep your posts elsewhere, have at least some decency - this is not the place to debate one's believes nor is it tha place to insult others (friendly reminder to thread members: this goes to all of us too) - you will get negged, too


LIFTING AND RAMADAN

useful links:
pretty much dieting comes down to doing IF:http://www.leangains.com/
http://stronglifts.com/ramadan-weigh...scle-lose-fat/

-yes it is possible to make gains WHILE fasting - dont worry....for any other questions, feel free to ask them ITT

Let's get this going




*If you guys have any videos/pictures/links you'd like to see in the OP let me now so I can add them

Same, usually I'm making the thread about 10 days before but this year it snuck up so fast, but it's probably also due to me having to prep all my final exam which are happening on the first 5 days of Ramadan

I have a tough summer semester right now. Been studying for a difficult IT security certification right... now for all of june i have 3 cyber security classes to knock out, while taking this certification exam, while being a full time worker (i have class every weekend for 12 hours total) and do finals this month.

and then boom! I gotta fast too haha. well it'll make me stronger! i get out of work at 6:30pm every day and then go lift and get home by about 9pm. gotta stick this out!

What does usually happen to your gains during Ramadan?
You guys work out before or after iftar?

my gains stay more or less the same. I used to do IF and not eat until AFTER i lifted anyway, and my strength has actually increased on cuts that way!

However, that's when i would lift at like 5pm and eat at 6pm. and i was drinking water throughout the day still.

now i have to lift at 7 and eat at around 830. it's later in the day, plus i haven't had water. so its more difficult for me to have good workouts. but i try to time my iftar so that it falls right when i finish lifting at the gym. have some water, sugar, and protein. then go home and have a real meal

Do you still do cardio? Or you cut it completely from your routine?

i barely do cardio anyway. but i joined a ball league and i'll be playing an intense 40min full court game once a week.

i do a lot of walking to cut cals though. i'll walk 5-8 miles a day which burns 500-800 calories and doesn't tire me out. i study for school on my phone while i walk (digital flashcards)

Ramadan Mubarak All!

May you guys have all your prayers answered this blessed month Insha'Allah.

I'm going to use it to my full advantage to complete my cut.

I'm running keto this month Insha'Allah. Eggs and kebabs at Sahur and then a massive steak with veggies for Iftar.

Workout routine will be fasted lifting/crossfit right before Iftar for 3x a week. I'll probably not be able to do much, if any cardio.

Btw: I started fasting on Wednesday to get my body geared up for this. It's challenging in the heat, but we'll all make it.
Thus let me live, unseen, unknown;
Thus unlamented let me die;
Steal from the world, and not a stone
Tell where I lie.

Damn there's a huge variation in when Ramadan starts each year. I thought it started in September every year for a while.

How do you not pass out at like 3 Pm not eating anything during the day for a whole month? lol.

Why are you obsessing over gains? Isn't Ramadan meant to bring you closer to God?

Just wanted to highlight this post. If you're looking for a way to interact with fellow halal miscers in a bit more personal way, I'd suggest joining. We have a nice group of ppl and there's friendly banter every day. Just pm illusions or me with your phone number and we'll add you.

Back to the topic at hand, may Allah be with us brethren. This summer is going to be tough but InshAllah we'll prevail.
