The 30 minute window "defined"

Some will say no carbs after cardio to extend the time that your body is running on stored BF.

TBH I dont buy into it, but would love to read and learn if anyone can link me to an artice on it.

I am/was one of these people, but am recently changing my views on this. The fact of the matter is you primarily burn fat while you're doing cardio (not like muscle building where you actually grow while you sleep and not while actually working the muscle). I do still think eating carbs hinders the 'afterburn' somewhat, but not a huge deal, especially when those carbs are complex.
