    There is indeed much to fasted cardio.

    In a nut shell, your blood sugar levels are extremely low at AM and your metabolism attacks to fat reserves in order to keep itself running. Thus, fasted cardio is the type of cardio that allows your metabolism to burn the most amount of fat within the given time frame. The next best time frame to do cardio for burning fat is post workout (lifting). I do both 6 times a week when cutting hard, works wonders to be honest...

    ... and I highly doubt 30min fasted cardio will burn any muscle when you are on Test & Tren. Even if you weren't currently cycling AAS, it would take your BF% single digits for your metabolism in order to be able to attack muscle mass.

    Excellent post.

    And the bolded part is true from the latest that I have read. I think years ago the myth existed that you HAD to eat or your body would eat muscle. Its more than broscience that says otherwise nowadays.

    TJ - Do you take BCAAs b4 fasted cardio? What are your thoughts on BCAAs?

    I go through phases every year with BCAA intake. I won't use it unless I am cutting hard, simply because I don't see the point in spending the money on it when eating over maintenance is the case. I eat egg yolks and red meat ED along with a quality whey which includes 5-6 gr of BCAAs, so it would be a waste of money for me...

    As for taking BCAAs before fasted cardio... I won't do it unless I am cutting hard and in need of high amounts of quality amino acids before fasted cardio.
