Early morning training? MAYBE!

Fact: blood sugar is low when getting up after a good night’s sleep. Low blood sugar is one of the essentials of fat burning.

Nevertheless, I do not recommend intensive training on an empty stomach because your body will not only burn fat but also the protein content of your muscles, which leads to muscle loss. And, if you lose muscle mass, your metabolism slows down. Also, intensive training in the morning can drain all the energy you’re gonna need during the day.

2 pieces of advice to people who want to do intensive training in the morning.

1. Have light food containing complex carbs for breakfast, then do a 60-minute walking training with 1 minute intervals of fast walking every 5 minutes.

2. Have a slice of meat or protein-rich energy drink and do a 30-minute fat burning training at medium intensity.
