You might be burning way less fat than you think when doing cardio… because you’re doing it at the wrong time! If your goal is to maximize fat burning, timing matters. The two best times for cardio are: 1️⃣ First thing in the morning on an empty stomach – when glycogen stores are low, your body is primed to burn fat for fuel. Studies show fasted cardio can increase fat oxidation by up to 20% compared to fed cardio. 2️⃣ Right after strength training – because your workout has already burned through stored carbs (glycogen), forcing your body to tap into fat stores sooner during cardio. SHOCKING FACT: But here’s something wild – if you do cardio before weights, you could be sabotaging your muscle growth by burning through the energy your muscles need for strength and power. Plus, lifting weights first actually increases fat oxidation during your cardio session. Want to burn more fat without spending more time? Try shifting your cardio to one of these two times and let me know if you feel the difference! Ready to up-level your brain performance and get your body fully optimized?
