LOL, I definately don't eat right before I lift. I try to wait at least 2 hours. It would be embarrassing to puke all over the gym

Cardio in the morning before eating is some bad stuff. Your body's already in a fasting state, and if you throw some physical exertion on top of that, you'll be burning some serious muscle. Try and eat some protein and carbs before doing the cardio, and you should be fine.

I love doing it first thing in the morning. It really gets you going for the day. I especially find this true the older that I get. I used to do cardio mainly at night, but now if I do it, I can't get to sleep. I also don't feel all that rested the next morning if I do cardio at night and I often get too stiff.
