Before exercise (energy supply stage)
There is a saying that exercise on an empty stomach can burn more fat. This theory seems reasonable, but it is difficult to really achieve the goal of reducing body fat.
Because in the case of complete fasting, the state of exercise will not be good, the intensity will not be good, and physical fatigue will make it difficult for you to persist!
The correct way is to supplement enough high-density energy before exercise, which is more conducive to achieving your calorie target, burning fat and increasing muscles.
Give yourself at least 30 minutes to digest, and don't eat too much fiber food and drink too much water, because it will make you feel bloated and may lead to muscle cramps.
Diet choice before exercise
1, if you can have a dinner, you can eat 1 0/0-2 hours before exercise, which is a natural balanced diet with protein as the mainstay.
For example, if you expect 600 calories of exercise, you should eat about 300 calories of food.
