    I naturally do fasted cardio for two reasons: 1. I like getting it done in the morning when I feel the most energetic, and 2. I dont care for breakfast in the morning anyway.

    I do an hour or so of cardio every morning as soon as I get up and out of bed before eating. I then normally eat a small snack afterwards and am good till lunch. I don't think it really matters though.. just do what works best for you!

    Doing fasted cardio does not lead to danger to safety and/or health unless you feel faint for some reason. I do fasted cardio every morning, as others in this thread have stated, and there is no danger.

    If you like doing it, OP, then do it. There aren't any advantages (calorie burn wise) versus doing it after eating, though.
