Is cardio before breakfast a meme? Seems very bro science that your body just dips into your fat reserves for energy. Any experiences?
Ive been doing 4 mile runs before breakfast on Tues/Thurs. Honestly it just feels good, OP
your body doesnt work that way, fampai.
its a meh meh alright
It doesn't matter whether or not your body dips into your fat reserves.
>do cardio before breakfast
>body takes 300 cals out of fat stores
>eat 300 calories
>no change
Or
>eat 300 cals
>do cardio and burn 300 cals
>no net change

Your ignorance is astounding. It's as if insulin response isn't a thing.
Op exercising before breakfast will shrink fat cells. Eating after exercise will cause calories to be stored as glycogen in muscle cells as opposed to adipose tissue. Ignore the idiots who don't understand this super simple fact

does this have to do with raising your base line metabolic r8?

Insulin cannot magically make energy appear from nothing.

I never said it did. You are just sense. Insulin response occurs whenever you eat, and if you east after exercise calories will be stored in muscle as opposed to fat cells. Is that simple enough for you?
>>37027217
LISS doesn't cause this response. Only lifting and sprinting.
>>37027217
Exactly. Then again people on this board lift and ONLY consume a protein shake after lmfao. More proton = bigger numbers. I hit 2pl8 bench time for 48 gram bro shakes xD. Im BIIIGG
Fat oxidation is a slow process that only occurs when your body doesn't have enough blood glucose to supply the muscles with energy. Eating after would likely cause a slight amount more fat burn but not enough to be significant for anyone who isn't competing. Counting macros is infinitely more reliable and useful
Eating beforehand also means that you have a big lump of food sitting in your stomach that hasn't been digested yet.
Waiting until after means that you are slightly lighter when you're exercising, thus ever so slightly easier to carry as you run
Though your time might marginally improve, you would arguably burn slightly more calories with a belly full of food, as you would be heavier

Fasted training before breakfast is going to burn nearly all fat as opposed to the usual mix of 70/30 carbs/fat. Obviously your total calorie count always matters but fasted training is excellent for cutting

Fasted training does not always mean running. You can lift on it also. And really who runs directly after eating a large meal. You're going to throw up
