I've been doing IF (intermittent fasting) for the past 3 weeks. I'm only doing it because it fits into my schedule better and I don't obsess about food as much when I eat small meals all day. For those of you who aren't familiar, it's eating within a specified time window, then fasting until you reach your window again. My IF is 8 hours eating, 16 hours fasting. My one concern is that, while I'm comfortable with this regimen, I don't have a post workout meal. My last meal is at 4 pm, I workout at 6:30 pm, and don't eat until 8 am the next day.
So, I am wondering if there is any science to suggest that having a post workout meal is superior to not having one (caloric intake is same).
