In addition to being more comfortable it will allow you to do your cardio in a fasted state and potentially burn more bodyfat because right after a weight training workout your muscle glycogen is depleted and your heart rate is already elevated from weight training. This will allow you to quickly get into your <em>&#8220;Fat Burning Zone&#8221;<\/em> when doing your cardio after weight training.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you would like to see more of my blog posts about protein shakes check out the links below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211;>> <a href=\"http:\/\/leehayward.com\/blog\/should-you-take-protein\/\" title=\"Should You Take Protein Shakes?\"><U>Should You Take Protein Shakes?<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n<p>&#8211;>> <a href=\"http:\/\/leehayward.com\/blog\/best-time-to-have-protein\" title=\"The Best Time To Have A Protein Shake\"><U>What Is The Best Time To Have A Protein Shake?<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n<p>&#8211;>> <a href=\"http:\/\/leehayward.com\/blog\/protein-powders-vs-weight-gainers\/\" title=\"Protein Powder Or Weight Gainers\"><U>Protein Powders vs. Weight Gainers&#8230;<\/u><BR><I>(which one should you use?)<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now this may seem pretty obvious.
