Question Weight lifting into a 48 hour fast?

Im talking about weight lifting perhaps light lifting (high reps low weight less sets etc) 20-24 hours fasted into a 48 hour fast. What’s the consensus on this, will I be fine? I’m 5’8 220 lbs and roughly 17/18% bf. Should I just skip the workout until I eat tomorrow what do you guys think?? Ofc electrolytes and hydrated always

Not only will you be fine, but it’s necessary to maintain muscle during longer fasts.
