Never do anything on empty stomach - it leads to many health problems including diabetes.
Have some complex carbs before exercising.
Breakfast lets your body know its time to wake up and start burning calories (body goes into a little starvation mode at night - you dont want to extend it and slow down even more)
You will NOT burn more fat or calories exercising on empty stomach.

Depends on you and how much of a work out, the intensity and duration. A snack, i.e. banana or half an apple b-4 a morning 2 mile run. What you want to do is burn fat and build muscle. If your stomach is processing food, blood is sent to the digestive area to assist the stomach etc in that process. When you are working out, blood is moving through your heart and lungs, (aerobic) and sent to the muscles that are being worked. Everyone is unique in what works best for them. You will know if you ate too much, you will get a stomach ache and consequently your workout will suffer. If you need something to eat b-4 working out, you will know because you will get light headed, dehydrated and your work out will suffer. B-4 or after, eat breakfast, your body will work efficiently and your brain will be sharp.Your at a young age so see what works now, and know it can change as you and your body changes.

Natalie is wrong!! It doesn't matter the time of day. So long as you have a usual routine, then you got good odds. As far as breakfast goes, it would be good to eat prior to any excessive activity, because you'd have energy ready to burn. But yes, i'd give it a little bit before gettin down. bottom line, dont skip out on breakfast. You're gonna need the energy. Your body doesn't go into "starvation mode" but yes, it does burn off some energy. And thusly, it would be advisable to eat in the morning.

I wouldn't over do it, but a simple breakfast followed with some oversize could very well help you out in the long run

you should *definately* devour breakfast first interior the morning. the reason being this: for the time of the night your physique maintains your blood sugar point (which must be in a good variety) first via making use of sugar out of your liver. Then as this runs out, and additionally because of the fact the solar comes up, it starts to alter to different techniques of conserving it. At this factor your innovations calls on your adrenal glands to produce cortisol (via way of a hormone referred to as ACTH). that is fairly this top in cortisol that wakes you up interior the morning. So 2 issues to be conscious: a million. Your liver is nearly a gas tank and once you awaken that is working low on spare juice. 2. So in case you do workout your physique has little determination yet to get that is power making use of the cortisol technique in case you have had no breakfast (curiously this change over between the liver and cortisol is what marathon runners describe as 'the wall'). Now a observe approximately cortisol: Cortisol is a hormone suited for working faraway from sabertooth tigers. that is will make you run on empty. How can it try this? that is style of the equivilant of taking a snack on your individual physique. Cortisol indicators to the physique to interrupt down the two fat and protein to produce extra power. Few human beings are in contact touching directly to the breaking down fat bit.... The protein bit on the different hand isn't good. It skill fairly which you're breaking down (among dissimilar different components of protein) your individual muscle mass. that could be a heavily undesirable theory once you're attempting to artwork out and income power! that is style of like powering a wood steam boat via burning planks taken from the deck.... particular you additionally could make the boat go extra advantageous yet you're weakening it to accomplish that.... So save that style of final-motel factor for working from saber teeth tigers. devour breakfast first. go away in simple terms somewhat a wreck first in case you could. in case you won't be able to that is between the few cases once you're allowed something intense glycemic index as this might straight away spike your blood sugar. ;-)
