هل ممارسة الرياضة على الريق تحرق الدهون فعلا

To answer your question in short, early morning low intensity cardio is an ideal way to burn fat and preserve muscle. To explain further the body has the ability to switch the types of fuel it uses to supply the energy it needs. The higher the intesity like sprinting, or vigorous weight lifting requires blood glucose or sugar in blood. This is a very short supply minutes. The body also has a storage of glycogen in the liver that is released and converted to glucose when needed this lasts for about 30 minutes with moderate intensity cardio. If you continue to go at a moderate intensity past that time the body must use muscle as a source of fuel to supply energy demands. The reason for this is that muscle is broken down and converted to energy much easier and at a faster rate than stored body fat. By doing cardio upon waking your blood glucose is very low so there isn't any sugar to burn. The body will always burn blood sugar before fat. This is a known medical fact. By doing low intensity cardio the body doesn't need to use muscle as a fuel because the demand for fast vigorous muscle contractions is not present.


To simplify the body prefers energy sources in the following order
glucose (blood sugar)
glycogen (fuel stored in the liver, and muscles as a reserve)
protien (more easily converted to fuel during vigorous activity)
fat (perfered during low intensity states like sleeping, and when blood sugar is low)
to burn body fat during low intensity exercise don't trigger the other energy systems by doing vigorus cardio)

marathon runners, endurance athletes have very little muscle because they're constantly using it as a fuel source.
