So I read here (http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/topicoftheweek34.htm) that I shouldn't do cardio in the morning on an empty stomach. It says there will be muscle degradation due to protien breakdown. But my calves are rocking, more bulky and defined than they have ever been.

I do not feel hungry, and have energy to go until 11ish (waking up at 8). Does anyone else have a similiar experience or information regarding this?

I'm starting an intense weight-lifting routine next week and have been researching how I should fit my (usually daily) cardio (3 mile run) into the routine.

On a humerous note, yesterday I was starting my run and my Gear-S watch would not pick up the GPS signal. I was going through the settings and swiped the wrong way and got to recommendations and it said 'Take a rest day'. LOL, that's funny. No rest for the wicked.

Got my workout routine figured out. Just waiting for payday so I can join a local gym and figure out my current weight tolerance. This is loosely based on recommendations from aworkoutroutine.com. After some research I realized I'll never get the bulk I want with a couple dumbells unless I surgically implanted them. Lol.

The idea is to find the right amount of weight that will allow me to complete the reps just below/before failure.
