What time to you wake up?

[Terminator]

Cause my goal is to lose body fat, and when you do cardio in the morning you are exercising on an empty stomach, which burns the calories in your body fat rather than the calories from food.

It's not to do with empty stomach it's due to lower levels of glycogen in the liver, it dosn't actually do you much good as far as weight loss goes.
When you train with low glycogen/blood sugar your body is forced into a stress response (cortisol, adrenaline) which forces the body to keep the fats, you will certainly burn fat during the exercise but afterwards your body will slow right down and you will not be burning much fat later that day, it's better if you keep your energy levels as continous as possible.

It's best to have a small breakfast of fruit etc, wait an hour, go for your run then have another small breakfast, this sets the metabolism up for fat burning all day

In time for breakfast.

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to start trying this one. I've also read that your well off taking 10 grams of protein powder before the morning cardio session to stop the breakdown of muscle.

I'm going to try and start getting more constant with my sleep patterns. Probably go to sleep around 10/11PM daily and wake up 6/7 daily. When I get more sleep, I tend to enjoy life a lot more. I think it's time to start getting in the habit of getting plenty of sleep.

I've also noticed I like waking up early, now that I've started to do that.

Initially it's a bitch to get used to. After a while it's not so bad, although now I piss everyone off in my house by waking them.

Yup, I do the same. Since I wake up at 6 every day I'm in the army, when I get home on leave I automatically wake up at around 7, while my family normaly wakes up at around 10-11... needless to say my sister (who sleeps in the room next to mine) isn't too happy with me (especially when my girlfriend is over and uhm).

Is this a copy of a thread posted sometime last year?!?!

Any day (school or weekend): around 6:00am, I'm a very early riser.

Usually 5:55am when i'm not working

 

[Remus]

Yea seriously screw that. My college starts at 8:30, which is plenty early. My High School was generally 9:00, and I had trouble enough learning something new then

Now with working...I can do mindless tasks at 8:00 in the morning no problem - but actually trying to learn something new before 9:00 AM is pretty brutal in my opinion.

 

[JNightshade]

7 AM. Damn work :hmph:

 

[CyberPitz]

Weekdays for work - 6:35 AM
Weekends - Whenever I roll out.

 

[Cormeh]

Weekdays I wake up at 6 am due to my rude alarm. When I actually get up is about 7:30.

Weekends really depend on how much I've drank.
