"Because the topic of when you should eat before working out has been circulating around here lately, this new study in the British Journal of Nutrition is interesting...\nPinterestFacebookResearchers from the University of Northumbria asked some of its 12 male participants to eat breakfast 90 minutes before working out on a treadmill and asked others not to. After their run, each participant got to drink chocolate milk as a recovery beverage and were instructed to eat their pasta lunch until they felt they&amp;#39;d had enough. As a result, all the participants ate about the same amount; the researchers found that those who had skipped breakfast didn&amp;#39;t eat more at lunch to compensate, and ended up burning about 20 percent more body fat than those who&amp;#39;d eaten breakfast.\nThe study, of course, was super-small, and didn&amp;#39;t involve any women. But the results are somewhat consistent with what other fitness experts have suggested: not eating before working out could force your muscles to burn stored calories instead of the calories you&amp;#39;ve just eaten.\nCould make sense, right? I usually delay breakfast to post-morning workout, mostly because I&amp;#39;m just rushing around trying to get it all done in time. But it&amp;#39;s cool to think that that could be a good thing!\nDo you eat breakfast before working out, or skip it?\nMore on weight loss:\n\nDitch these habits, lose more weight\n\n\nDoes when you eat matter as much as what you eat?\n\n\nEat cheese...and still lose weight\n\nPhoto: Thinkstock"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
