Hello, I have read that to burn fat is to do cardio in the morning on an empty stomach and wait one hour before eating breakfast, makes sense? Unfortunately, I do not have the luxuary of waking up early in the morning to do this. When I wake up, I usually have a protein shake (300 calories). Around 10:30am I get very hungry and have a half peanutbutter and jelly sandwich, then at noon I'll go to the gym and do cardio for about 25 minutes. I usually wait about an hour after cardio to eat (by that time, I'm really hungry). I usually eat a high protein meal around 1:30pm. I am wondering if this is a good program? I have heard that running in the evening is not that effective for burning fat, is that true, or could somebody recommend a better way? Thanks in advance. usaims >> Stay informed about: burning fat,not muscle

Doesn't eating after cardio defeats the purpose of burning fat? After cardio, rather than the body burn body fat for fuel, its going straight to that stomach full of yummy food? Am I correct, I'm not a nutritionist. usaims >> Stay informed about: burning fat,not muscle

Morning cardio may help somewhat, but the time of day isn't as important as the overall balance of calories in versus calories out. Since many people create grand fitness plans that they then stop following, I suggest you find a schedule that works for you and not worry too much about doing your cardio in the morning. -S- http://www.kbnj.com >> Stay informed about: burning fat,not muscle

Your post is far too well-reasoned, and lacks the acerbic, condescending tone required of posts in mfw. Please consult the FAQ so you don't repeat this mistake in future...you homo twit.

John Parrillo recommends it (the morning cardio - not sure abut the not eating for an hour though) as does Chris Aceto, I think. The idea is that you've been asleep all nigght and your glycogen levels should be at a low point so you will begin to burn fat almost immedialtely. The concern for those trying to gain wieght, is that you might also burn up muscle tissue. Parillo contends that with MCT oils and also eating when your done (and throughout the day) that musle loss is minimal. Your mileage may vary.
