So we all know I hate doing HIIT FTITM on empty, but will do so if it is best for fat loss.
But I was reading (just lurking) on another board (shame Daisy!) about how HIIT should be done fueled ...... treat it like a weight workout. Now, I have always treated it like a weight workout in some regards - need PWO nutrition, don't do everyday, etc. But they were pretty convincing as to why HIIT needs to be done fueled. i.e., muscle loss, inability to do a real HIIT workout (not being able to push it hard enough) ......
I know that for me, I have BETTER HIIT workouts fueled than on empty. I can push it harder and feel better after. But as mentioned, I will do whatever really is best for fat loss.
So what are the thoughts? (Shadow?)
