When you do this your body automatically goes into starvation mode and begins to burn fat in order to fuel the body with the needed energy. When you do this you are not only NOT burning fat, but you are burning muscle--this is not a healthy tactic and I advise you to start eating your BREAKFAST!! You must break the fast from the night in the morning, hence the name! For all of you who are skipping breakfast, you are only cheating yourselves!

Glad you liked the information! Just like you, I sometimes go to the gym with an empty stomach in the morning, if I ate a late dinner and can handle it. Glad you liked the information!

I don't need any food; it is actually common for many people to not need anything to fuel an early run (4-5 miles). I then eat a large carb-filled bfast (i am addicted to oatmeal and yogurt combinations). I fit in weights anywhere throughout the day as it doesn't really matter to me if I just ate before lifting. Thanks for your insight on workout nutrition; I always like to see how other people schedule their workouts with meals.
