I was wondering if it was ok to workout in the morning on an exercise bike for about 30 minutes without eating breakfast, THEN eating breakfeast. I heard it could be bad to work out on an empty stomach but I want to start working out at like 430 AM in the morning and I just don't feel like eating then.


Answer
It's fine, many people do this because it helps burn fat. The theory is if you don't have any food for energy then your body has to use fat reserves to fuel your work out.The flip side is that it could break down muscle to use for fuel also. It won't do you any harm though, so go for it.
