Benefit to doing cardio not on an empty stomach?

[Slyder190]

I need a lil feedback here guys. I always do cardio on an empty stomach as soon as I wake up. If I can't get to the gym upon waking, I just skip cardio for the day. I know if I eat first, that my body will use glucose floating around in my system as fuel. Will I still burn any fat though? I know it will still speed my metabolism. Should I just hit cardio anyway if i can't do it upon waking?

Fat is used more by the slow twitch muscles. So as long as they are activated, you should be ok. <p>I actually need to do some more homework on this to get it all straight - but I am sure of the above. If you want fat loss, look more carefully at your diet.

there's actually no pratical difference between exercizing being fed or not. the only pratical difference is that you open yourself to problems during the exercise (fainting being the lesser)

there is an actual difference in doing cardio on an empty stomach or not, but that difference is so small that it takes more or less a year or so for this difference to be pratical
