Is it OK to exercise on an empty stomach in the morning?

Young people like fitness very much. Everyone has different goals for fitness, but most people hope to have a good figure. Fitness is a long and complicated project that requires long-term persistence to see results. Fitness must also be done in a scientific way. For example, the diet needs to be adjusted reasonably, and the time and frequency of fitness must be controlled. Many people like to exercise when they get up in the morning. Can they exercise in the morning before eating?

Is it OK to exercise on an empty stomach in the morning?

It is possible, but not recommended.

1. After exercise, eating will be uncomfortable. (I have experienced this strongly)

2. If the intensity is high, it will affect the work efficiency of the day.

3. Your stomach will feel uncomfortable.

4 If you take a long break, your appetite may increase significantly.

Can't. Exercising on an empty stomach in the morning can easily lead to the following three adverse consequences:

1. Running on an empty stomach will increase the burden on the heart and liver, and may cause arrhythmia;

2. Long-term exercise on an empty stomach may cause "stuck in the side" and stomach problems;

3. Exercise requires energy. Normally, the main source of energy for the human body is carbohydrates consumed in the diet. When exercising on an empty stomach, such as jogging in the morning, the main source of energy is provided by fat. At this time, the free fatty acids in the blood will increase significantly. Fatty acids not only become the energy source for myocardial activities, but excessive amounts can become poison to the myocardium, causing various arrhythmias and even leading to sudden death.

[Note] Drinking a glass of boiled water when you get up every morning is good for your health, but if you want to exercise, you should do it 20 minutes after drinking water. People who are used to exercising in the morning should try not to do it on an empty stomach. You can drink some honey or glucose before exercising to ensure energy and avoid adverse effects on your body.

I remember when I was in school, I had to get up early every day to run or do morning exercises on an empty stomach. Because of this, many classmates fainted on the track. Everything has two sides. Although exercising on an empty stomach can improve the body's fat burning efficiency, it is only a small improvement. In addition, after exercising on an empty stomach, the ability to continue burning fat will be reduced. If you continue doing this for a long time, it won't help you lose fat. For people with poor physical fitness, it is more likely to cause adverse reactions when exercising on an empty stomach.
