Rainbow_Dashing 04/22/20 5:43:57 PM #321:	LameFAQs posted... I have to ask - is there science that favors fasted cardio over normal cardio in terms of fat loss? Like, is it definitely proven to be more effective? I notice whenever I do fasted cardio, Im drained so much faster. Doing normal cardio midday or in the evening, I have so much more energy and stamina. I dont wanna be killing myself if there really isnt any difference. If you're doing cardio you're going to use up whatever glycogen you have stored in your body, usually it takes about 2ish hours of hard cardio to get there. It's when you "hit the wall" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitting_the_wall If you're doing fasted cardio you're starting your training with a lower amount of stored glycogen which leaves you feeling drained. I know about this because I've done some ANECDOTAL experimenting with this when I was running 2-3 hours every other day. On days that I didn't drink something like a gatorade my pace would just plummet after a while. I'd still feel like I was working hard (my heart rate hovering around 160-170) but I just wouldn't be as fast as I was. Days that I did drink gatorade I'd be working hard but I'd just be faster. As a result of doing that I set it up to be drinking gatorade on days that I would be running more than an hour and a half. Usually my pace would be set to be about maintaining 170-180 HR for 2 hours, so I would SUPPOSEDLY be burning about 1000 calories an hour. This worked I was losing weight pretty damn quickly despite having a shitty diet. Contrary to belief you CAN outrun a bad diet. If you're feeling tired it's because you're using up your glycogen and focusing on burning your fat store (ketosis also the point of a keto diet). When you switch to fat is when you feel more tired and less efficient than normal. Once you get used to it you can be like one of those beast mode ultra marathon runners. I just couldn't, I'd always notice a dip in my times whenever I didn't drink gatorade or some form of getting glycogen back. --- https://imgur.com/p0Sbo https://imgur.com/mghB33T https://imgur.com/NWrZa <cite>Rainbow_Dashing posted [p:937895917] in How are yo...
