Should You Train Fasted or Fed?

About this video

The speaker says fasted versus fed cardio should follow personal preference for general fat loss. He argues feeling better training fasted is a valid reason to do it, and eating breakfast first will not necessarily hinder fat loss as long as you are net hypocaloric by the end of the day or week. He adds that recommendations can change for higher-intensity cardio and competitive endurance performance.

Key takeaways

  • The speaker says fasted versus fed cardio should be chosen by personal preference for general fat loss.
  • The speaker says total calorie balance across the day or week is what matters for fat loss.
