Not Nguras Energy, Here are Tips for Talking During Fasting

JAKARTA - Fasting is not an excuse not to exercise. Exercise is still important during Ramadan fasting, in order to maintain physical fitness.

However, exercising while fasting is indeed different from the usual day, starting from the recommended time to its intensity. Here are some tips for exercising while fasting that do not interfere with your worship.

1. Choose the right time

Quoted from SVRG, on Thursday, February 19, 2026, choosing the right time for exercise during fasting is very important, so as not to drain the body's energy. The best time to exercise during Ramadan fasting is one hour before breaking the fast.

Exercising an hour before breaking the fast means you can immediately meet your fluid and food intake needs when breaking the fast. This step keeps you from losing fluids and feeling tired, because you have to wait a long time for breaking the fast.

2. Determine the right type of sport

During fasting, it is best to implement exercises that are not too heavy. Some types of exercise recommended are running, cycling, walking, to sit-ups and push-ups, pilates, to yoga.

If you want to do weight training, use low repetitions with lighter weights, to keep muscle mass without exhausting yourself a lot.

3. Don't force yourself

The last thing to consider is not forcing yourself to exercise during fasting because it can be dangerous for your health. Don't force yourself if you feel dizzy or very tired.

Then focus on maintaining fitness during fasting, not drastic performance improvement. Don't forget to get enough sleep so that your body's energy recovers well after exercising.
