I do a slightly different form of intermittent fasting where everyday I only have Bulletproof coffee (just fats) from 10 PM to 4:00 PM. You write " I am still able to do moderately strenuous physical activity on fasting days " While I'm not an expert, ideally you should not be weaker while fasting because your body is gaining energy from ketosis.
To clarify: although my wording made it sound like I was slightly weaker while fasting, I haven't noticed a difference in strength, which is what I wanted that quote to illustrate. Incidentally, I just realised that a better example of that is that I have started weightlifting recently, and have not noticed a difference between fasting and non-fasting days.
