Is doing cardio first thing in the morning on an empty stomach the best way to lose fat?
Well, it is a way, but not necessarily the best way. When you awaken, your body is in a fasting metabolic state and burning fewer calories per unit of time than usual. Consuming some food will immediately increase your metabolic rate. If you don’t consume any food, this will adversely affect your ability to work out at a high intensity and may cause weakness and dizziness and lead to early fatigue. If you have problems preparing a meal you might want to consider a meal replacement drink or bar.
