Morning Cardio?

[Xiodus]

So take about 25 gs of protien about 30 mins before cardio then eca stack then wait an hour to eat? sounds about right?

no
no food before cardio - just eca

then wait 30-60mins to eat protein/fat low gi meal

hmm

If you are that worried of muscle loss, go buy some amino acid tablets, and take those 30-0 mins before your cardio, that way your body can use the amino's you digested instead of any muscle. I think the mourning cardio is a good idea, but if you do cardio 2-3 hours after a meal , I think it is just as effective. Hopefully that meal was very low carb and you should be good.

you'd better take BCAAs and/or L-Glutamine for their anti-catabolic properties

i take glutamine before cardio but i was told by someone on this board that all that does is raise amonia levels in the blood...can someone further explain this claim?

I know I didn't tell you that, but I can tall you that glutamine does NOT raise amino acid levels, it's only ONE amino. It's just thought to be somewhat anti-catabolic, doesn't mean it will prevent muscle loss.
