A member asked:
Is it good to eat lots of fat before exercising so that you can burn it right off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bad strategy.: The idea for weight loss is to create a caloric deficit, not just to eat and then exercise to balance it off. Besides, your body seeks carbohydrates first for exercise, so your strategy equates to fat in and carbohydrates out. Exercise in the morning before eating anything to tap into your fat stores to create a fat deficit.
