The studies don't comment on what happens the second and third day, and whether there are net gains or losses.

I applaud you for enthusiasm in advocating Keto and IF'ing, but I think you ought to be a little more discriminating in making judgments about right and wrong practices. My observation is athletes have been doing fasted work-outs for decades, power and cardio, and moving more into endurance sports more recently. Dismissing it as a wrong practice seems a little...premature.
No, read my prior posts. I never base anything on a single reference and neither would I expect anyone else to. However, these is a post forum, not a venue for posting extensive databases of boring case studies few will understand and even less will be interested in reading through. Besides, I don't keep a collection of them.

That post was a best-of-summary example. A mere "cut to the chase" highlight and compilation of several studies that I've recently been reading. My point is the data is out there and available so for anyone to research for themselves. Or not.
