    Couple cardio questions???

    after doing a.m. cardio on an empty stomach for 30 - 40 min at low impact pace how long should u wait to eat your 1st meal???






    My other question is are the heart monitors that are already installed treadmills very accurate??? for example on mine i put my hands on the bars and after a little while it gives me my heart rate.

    The heart rate monitors on treadmills are fine....


    As for eating after cardio, most suggest if you are going to eat a pro/fat meal to wait 15-20 minutes, and if you are eating a pro/carb meal 45-60 minutes.
