Fasted Training and Women's Health

This chapter explores the differences in physiological responses to fasted training between women and men, focusing on hormonal influences and implications for fat oxidation and appetite. The discourse highlights the historical gaps in research concerning female-specific exercise responses and emphasizes the need for individualized approaches to fitness and health, particularly for women. The speakers critically examine the evidence surrounding fasted versus fed training, stressing caution in generalizing findings while advocating for more comprehensive studies addressing women's metabolic health.
