His idea on breakfast




theoretically, you can get away with minimal undue catabolism during empty stomach morning cardio if it's at a very low intensity. even then, the objective & concept of the activity is way off.. this is because the goal of training for fat loss is to cause a maximal thermic effect over the next several hours as a result of the exercise bout. concentrating on use of fat oxidation during fasted-state training compromises your intensity threshold, and therefore your afterburn -- and therefore your net thermic effect of training.. not to mention it also hikes up your cortisol levels and hence the degree of short & long-term muscle catabolism.

i am not at all a fan of training in the fasted state, under any circumstance. those who think they get better results that way either don't mind a greater-than-necessary loss of muscle, or simply don't have their nutrition planned right, and happened to incur an energy deficit by employing that tactic. keep in mind that the body can adapt to virtually any protocol over time, but there are just better ways of doing things.

prebed nutrition is rather simple, low- to moderate GI balanced solid meal with a concentration on slow release. there's more to it, but i gotta dip for now. i'll be back. thanks for the response.
