In short, if you want to burn fat, do cardio when you wake up, before eating anything. Then, don't eat for an hour after you finish your cardio workout, to let your body burn the most fat possible.

You need to remember a couple things before giving this advice. First, you need energy from food in order to perform exercise. As the director of a fitness center, I have seen too many people pass out because they didn't have anything to eat before exercise. Also, you want to eat WITHIN one hour of exercise because that is when your metabolism is the highest; you will simply burn off what you eat and regain the energy that you just used up.
I will read over some more to make edits because a lot of the info is this thread is outdated, but it's great to see people who care about their fitness as they enjoy the herb
