Pre/post fasting is fine. Jogging whilst dehydrated is not a good idea. JogWhilstFasting, i would refrain from any exercise in which you would have to exert yourself whilst fasting.

It is important that you concentrate especially on your meals before the fast and when breaking the fast too. Make sure you drink sufficient amounts of water during the period you are not fasting.

But during a real fast for any period of time and the advice to exercise is a bad idea. That isn’t a fast if its ramadan…sure exercising is ok since you’re EATING.

I have been lifting about 3 months before Ramadan, heavily and doing cardio. Now I usually go to the gym about an two hour before sunset and just do 2 hours of cardio burning about 1200-1600 calories; I can do this with ease, however lifting weights is much tougher and takes a lot more out of me. I weighed 246 beginning of Ramadan and now I weigh 237, my end goal is 230lbs but I dont want to lose too much muscle, should I lift weights and cut back on cardio? What about lifting weights?
