Bigger Stronger Leaner Competitive Bodybuilding

Hi,started Waterbury’s summer project today to try and drop some fat. Right now I work out at about 9:00 A.M. However starting next tuesday I am going to start school so my times to workout out would be 5:00 A.M. or around 3:00 P.M. It would be better to workout out in the morning because the gym is empty but I don’t know if it would be to early for the body?

Any advice on when to exercise another problem is that I eat my first meal at 7:25 A.M. so I would workout on an empty stomach, unless I change breakfast to 5:00 A.M.

I am sure some will give you a reason it’s best in the morning and likewise some for the evening. My advice is commit to when you will consistenly go and do a ball busting workout. You will need to determine when that will be.

Also, if you wake up one morning full of energy and ready to tear it up go in the morning. If one day you want to sleep in for whatever reason go that afternoon. Another words go when you feel best as long as whether it’s either one you are going on your day to lift!

Is it okay to do it on an empty stomach? or when I lift I should eat breakfast at 5:00 A.M?

If you go in the morning have a scoop of protein like Metabolic Drive in water with something like an apple. This should give you enough protein and carbs for your workout. Post workout slam a recovery drink like Surge and Creatine go home or to the dorm shower and within the next hour or two eat a good whole food meal with plenty of protein and good carbs.
