Yes I did.
Every 2 weeks I took measurements, weight and BF.
Each "experiment" was conducted for 6 weeks. (Period of time that usually takes me to pass from 8-9% BF to 4-5% BF) Approximatedly 3-4 months apart, so I could start with nearly the same stats each time.
Same diet, same schedule, same everything.
Cardio on an empty stomach first thing in the morning threw the best results. Cardio after weights thew the worse, becuse it involved muscle loss.

And that is also availed by all the people I work with... I've used them as lab hamsters just to be sure that it wasn't only what was working best for ME, but also to work with everyone else, and it did.

Since then, YES, I'm 100% SURE.
