@Ray. I would opt for some whey if training first thing – then you’ll be ok

In a previous comment you suggested to take BCAAs if you do weight training in a morning, fasted state.
I have recently started that hoping for some extra fat loss but no muscle loss.

Reading this article, I have doubts as if what I am doing is a good idea or not. Any thoughts ?
Thanks

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21051570: “Fat oxidation raised by in fasted (+21%) vs. carb-fed (+6%) states”
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15212756: “Ingestion of carbohydrate before exercise reduces the rate of fat oxidation significantly compared with fasted conditions”

Both in endurance training, mind you…

I skip breakfast and don’t eat until after an HIIT workout around 2 PM. So I’m doubly screwed if your study is correct.

I am cutting and not a morning person at all. Today I decided to put in extra effort and wake up at 5am just to do this. Guess I will be sleeping in tomorrow. Thanks Mark.
