Definitely before breakfast as you are not full so you can do exercise without being lazy. And You should never do exercise after breakfast! You should wait at least an hour.

Talvez antes do pequeno almoço porque não se faz exercício com a barriga cheia. Mas não pode ser um exercício muito intenso.

umm okay, I’m sure it’s before because If you exercise after meal, you might feel uncomfortable I guess. So I always prefer not to do it after breakfast and if i forgot to exercise and ate something, I’d like to wait about half-hour and do it

I would say before breakfast because you will burn calories while you eat. Give yourself like 20 minutes (cooldown time) and then eat. You should also drink some water and maybe eat a cracker during cooldown. It helps to settle your stomach. I do yoga as my morning exercise.

Exercising before breakfast it gives us a sense of achievement, earning your food per se. Also, makes your body warm up and queue hunger. Instead, of waking up on auto pilot .

For me I think having a small snack like a protein bar or a sip of a smoothie can give you energy to exercise and wake you up, but not a big breakfast before the workout that will leave you with a full stomach and then it might hurt you if you exercised right after you finish the breakfast

When you go to exercise in the morning I personally think it it better to do physical activities before breakfast. You will be more motivated to eat healthier. And it just makes you feel good in the morning! ( don’t forget drink water before you go to do physical activities) – Alena Brooks

If you want to lose weight, I recommend doing cardio exercises on empty stomach, because you’ll lose fat faster, and it’s better because you won’t procrastinate, and you’ll complete the hard thing (exercising) first, I recommend reading (Eat that frog) book. Lastly, I have an idea for you, you can exercise while the breakfast being cooked, so you take advantage of your time, good luck in your Fablous journey and I encourage you to continue do the small things that will change your life ❤️

probably after breakfast because i’m not hungry. the only issue is that i would be full so my stomach would hurt either way.

I’m doing it actually after breakfast if they are heavy exercises but see if they are light exercises do some of them before breakfast like walking or dancing maybe 😊🙏
