Yes. The body has gone without food for at least 8 or more hours and doing cardio means that it potentially burns more bodyfat. Also it ramps the metabolic rate up for the rest of the day.

This. The overall intermittent fasting/training thing is one of the best things I ever did.

I met Tony Robbins in an elevator recently. He said some things to me and now I find myself doing early morning cardio and focusing on women's inner beauty.

I just spent an hour obsessively cleaning out my coffee maker.  ;D

Found some pink mold and lots of nasty mineral build up.  :-X :-X :-X

in summer here I have to get up at 4.30 am to do cardio as the sun is too hot after 6 am. But that's when the snakes are out also. I have stepped on a lot of snakes.

This totally works for me as well...... 6 mornings a week....
Combined with a basic Keto diet I'm now at 9% and 204 pounds.
Been losing about 1 pound of fat a week since late february.
In 5 more weeks I'll be shredded .....all thanks to 2 things.
Fasted cardio and Keto.
The weights are done 4 days a week usually midday.
Monday - Pull....Back /Bi's/Traps
Tuesday- Delts/Calfs
Wednesday-Thighs
Friday Push...Chest/Triceps
I do abs 3-4 nights a week in my living room.
-Carry on  :)

No actually what I do now is cardio straight after my weights. It's the next best thing to fasted cardio. I don't have to worry about the sun also as I am in the gym.

I've done it for years and it works very well.  Drink a black cup of coffee and do it immediately after you wake up.

If performed too often (and you're natty), you'll have less energy for your weight training.  You'll probably lose some muscle too.

I weight train in the morning exclusively and fasted weight training didn't work well for me. Now, I have a small bowl of oatmeal 30 minutes before I train. Carb/protein shake after.

As for "cardio", I usually do HIIT-type stuff, but I do it in the evening, before dinner. Not fasted, either.

Fasted cardio in theory is better.

I suppose the trade off is in the intensity you can muster while fasted.

However, if you're glycogen depleted then more of the calories you're burning will come from fat. Fasted morning cardio would be my choice for fat loss, as well as intermittent fasting for weight loss (as opposed to other methods of weight loss which a) make me feel worse and b) imo take too longer; aside from keto, but I don't like doing weight training while in ketogenesis).

Galeniko swears by fasted weight training as well, and he maintains incredible leanness without hardcore androgens and without dangerous stimulant use. So take from that what you will.

Not for me, but hey, my breakfast is always after 12:00. Usually at 12:30, sometimes even at 14:00. And I get up at 6:15. I just can't eat in the morning... Makes me sick as a dog.  :-\
So all cardio and weighttraining I do fasted. If I eat before taining, I just puke...

I just spent an hour obsessively cleaning out my coffee maker.  ;D

Found some pink mold and lots of nasty mineral build up.  :-X :-X :-X

You did just run it a few times with vinegar or lemon juice instead of water, instead of really scrubbing, didn't you?
