    Fuel Before Cardio

    ive been reading here that alot of people say no food before cardio, if i do cardio in the am does that mean no breakfast. some other guys here say only take in a small amount of protein and carbs before cardio -could you be a little more specific as to what a small amount of each would be. THANK YOU

    If you must eat before cardio, eat a protein only meal. That way it wont spike up your insulin levels, and the aminos will prevent muscle catabolism.

    Yeah, eating before cardio done to tap into fat stores is kind of pointless.
