Weight Loss Myth - Working Out First Thing In The Morning Will Burn More Calories

Working out on an empty stomach is simply not a good idea. There are some theories that promote working out first thing in the morning, before eating anything. The thinking is that this will burn more fat, since you haven't given your body any food to take calories from. But this simply isn't true. In fact, working out this way will not only make your workouts less beneficial because you will be lacking the energy you need to actually get in an intense workout, your body will start using muscle to take it's energy from and you don't want that!
