    Fasted cardio on cycle

    Does anyone have experience doing consistent fasted cardio on cycle? Did you feel it helped you drop significantly more BF?

    Significantly - I don't think so


    But, I still do it @ least 2-3x a week


    I am still dropping Bf - But, it's all about where you are at


    I hit the fasted cardio hard before & seemed to help, but there's no way to say how much compared to lets say post workout cardio

    Thanks for the reply, I'm wanting to add it to my routine for my first cycle which is why I'm asking.

    Fasted cardio is what most bodybuilders do before a show and if you are doing it 5 days EW yes it will make a difference. It will help you get that stubborn fat off

    I love fasted cardio and jogging (my favorite) on an empty stomach feels great.

    I rather like fasted cardio but can't work it in until weekend. Too early a riser during the week. :/

    Care to elaborate?

    Only fasted cardio myth I have not been able to debunk is where someone claimed it only helps people below <10% because there is simply no research on that specific group of people.

    There's a place for both. I still find it difficult to even get a great HIIT cardio workout fasted. Nothing wrong with a 45-60 minute session at a slow pace, completely fasted.

    I wouldn't read too much into it.....feels good, do it! It's a great way to start the day. Theories and studies are great but find out what works best for you.

    do you think fasted cardio is really better than keto cardio? i understand that being depleted in carbs drives you into fat burning fast (whether or not youre fasted).
