Fit and fine by Kamal Singh: To fast or not to fast

Since its Navratri and a lot of people are fasting these days, I think its appropriate that we discuss fasting and working out. Actually I am frequently asked if it is okay to do cardio on an empty stomach and also would you “burn” more fat if cardio was done in a fasted state? Till not so long, fasted state cardio was considered the de-rigueur method for losing weight.
