My husband and I work out before the kid wakes up around 5:30 / 6. Should we eat beforehand?
I guess a subset to this question is: if we don’t eat before we work out, does the body pull energy from muscle or fat stores? I saw this one guy online (I know, lol, what a start to a sentence) who said that some people don’t see results because they don’t eat beforehand and the body turns to muscle for energy - he suggested eating 30 g of protein within 30 minutes of waking and then afterward doing 30 minutes of moderate exercise - not sure if anyone else has seen that guy around.
Does anyone know if there’s any truth to this? Any experience?
Nausea while working out (from eating prior or not eating) is not an issue for either of us.
Thanks so much in advance![Folded hands: light skin tone :pray_tone1: 🙏🏻](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f64f-1f3fb.png)
