    if trying to keep as much muscle as possible, eat as soon as u can. sometimes i may wait about 15mins or so but only because im winded and need to catch my breath before being able to chow down

    New here and looking to improve. One common thing I read here is the fact that alot of people do cardio first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.......
    Riddle me this.....if I am bulking, how much cardio (how long) should I do?
    Does this change if you are cutting?
    I would think that I would have to eat immediately afterwards, I am pretty freakin' hungry in the morning!!!!

    Fat burning is minimal after light cardio anyway. Best to get something in you rather quickly to get out of a catabolic state. I shoot for no less than 15 minutes or so. And like Bigmax, I'll usually pop my BCAA's on the drive home, but ran out of those a couple months back. LOL

    Don't highjack threads bro, if you want to ask a question start a thread or do search. Just seems to be a pattern of yours. Not flaming you bro.

    I advise:

    pro/fat = 10 - 15 mins. after.

    pro/carb = 15 -20 mins. after.

    Experiment and see what works for you, these are only my suggestions and what I have clientele do.
