  • hey Ahmad !

    I have a question! I figured the time of day when my energy levels are the lowest, must be when i wake up in the morning. so I have tried to do my cardio execises on an empty stomach early in the morning, but its very hard to keep the intensity up =/ however i have been doing that for some time now and i don't seem to make any progress at all. So the question is if I should just keep it up untill i see results or should I change my routine?

  • @Madsa101 do your cardio during the point when you have more energy... which might mean switching your schedule around. Depending on your reasoning for doing the cardio, will determine the nutrient timing. I suggest for optimum health to try to do cardio 1-2 hours after consuming a protein enriched meal or shake... then wait the one hour...trust me it works...you have to make sure you find your balance...never force yourself to do something... do it when you really want too...ok?~ahmad

  • isi ayt if i take protein shake b4 da cario

  • @TRax1122 yes it is fine...have it 1-2 hours before though...~ahmad

  • so u sayin not 2 eat nuffin b4 cardio where r u gonna get carb from den

  • @TRax1122 there's more to it than that. You should be eating smart every 3-4 hours...4-6 smart meals/snacks a day. Eating like that guarantees balanced blood sugar, and full glycogen in the muscles. So when you wake, go do your cardio, wait the hour then eat IF FAT LOSS IS YOUR GOAL. If you need something to eat before have a piece of fruit...if needed...watch lesson2-4 clips.

  • When you do cardio on an empty stomach that could cause catabolism, how do i prevent catabolism when doing my cardio????

  • thank you for this valuable information.  you have earned a subscriber

  • Ya i would eat nothing before working out but i would feel sick and get dizzy....ill try it tommorow thanks for the advice

    193.6lbs down from 224.5 since july 19 2010

  • i have a question, i have abs and a low body fat.. but why does my stomach jiggle a little when i jump up and down?

  • When you say you wait one hour to put anythin back in your stomach. Are you counting a thing such as a protein shake? bc i always took it like 10 min after in done with my workout bc when your lifting weight and doin cardio your body has a 2 hr gap to fuel your body and start the recoverying process or am i wrong?

  • Good video, thanks man....this video along with a few articles on google helped me win an argument with my Uncle about not workig out/runnig right after eating a hefty meal.

    God Bless you and your family....keep up the good work.
