    How long should I wait to eat after morning cardio?

    Yes, this is an old topic, and yes, I should just google this to find my answer. But I have not found definitive answers about this topic. We've all heard about this method... wake up and do cardio on an empty stomach because it's supposed to tap directly into fat burning (essentially).

    I've done morning cardio many ways:

    Empty stomach, cardio
    Carbs and protein in stomach, cardio
    Just carbs, cardio
    Just protein, cardio
    Weight training, cardio

    I won't bore you with a longer list, so I'll get to my question.

    I have the ability to do a high intensity workout on an empty stomach in the morning. How long should I (how long do you) wait after this exercise to eat the morning meal?

    you dont need to wait any time. I would get some carbs and protein in you. Maybe a good whey shake, thats what I usually do.

    Lately I've been taking a big whey shake 30 - 60 minutes after. Do you think it's enough?
