Stop exercising on an empty stomach!
We help you solve that big question, should I have breakfast before or after exercising? Recent studies say that exercising on an empty stomach...
I am sure that you have also gone through a big doubt when you want to lose more weight and you are going to organize your activities: what should you do first: have breakfast or exercise? And as the studies being done around the world show their results, you become more and more confused. I was there once, but today I will tell you what path you should take to facilitate your weight loss. I tell you that the University of Bath, in the United Kingdom, did research with a group of overweight men, who walked for an hour with an oxygen consumption of 60% on an empty stomach. In another test, they did the same thing, but two hours after having a high-calorie, carbohydrate-rich breakfast. And what do you think happened? Those who ate breakfast had better results! According to this study, the production of two genes that have functions during metabolism increased to a greater extent when the volunteers ate before exercising. An increase in one of them indicates that the body used stored fat as fuel to metabolize during exercise, instead of using carbohydrates from breakfast. For its part, the other gene increases when adipose tissue – made up of fat – uses stored energy to support increased activity, such as exercise. Personally, I always wake up early to have some breakfast before going out to exercise because I feel stronger and more energetic. Try it and you will see that you will be able to take advantage of all those characteristics of your body, the fresh air in the morning and the rest of your day to carry out your activities.
