    I work out most of the time as soon as I get up. It works great for me - I feel more energized throughout the day and it really helps me to get loose and limber. It also gets me to drink water before coffee which I feel is very healthy :) I don't do huge workouts though - 30-45 min of cardio and light or body weight stuff.

    I find that when I don't work out right away then I'm hungry right away, whereas when I work out from 5-5:45 then I'm fine not having breakfast until I get to work at 8.

    Fasted cardio is great in the morning. Can't say the same for resistance training though. I have to be pretty amped up on caffeine to get close to a meaningful workout like that which leads to a bit of a crash later. Just my personal experience but different people react differently.
