Muscle Building Workout Fuel
Men’s Health reports on how a French study claims that eating fat may help burn belly fat (which in turn would help reveal your hard earned muscle building and weight gain efforts). The study reports that when obese people ate a high fat meal before a 45 minute cardio workout, they broke down more body fat than people who fasted. Men’s Health goes on to report that scientists believe fatty acids released into your blood after digestion mix with exercise-related hormones to kickstart your metabolism.
This just goes to show even more how the long believed conventional form of nutrition, about fasting, etc., to build muscle, gain weight, and burn body fat is so skewed. Who would have thought that now a study actually shows that eating a high fat meal would help burn fat.
