First of all, one cannot burn fat without glycogen, its a fact. To assert that consuming gels is counter productive to burning fat is not only not true, but is actually ass backwards. You actually provide evidence for my argument in your article. If one exercises in the morning when glycogen stores are low, the athlete experiences 'dizzyness and shaking' as you put it. Because an athlete has no glycogen, the workout is cut short. An athlete with no glycogen cannot get in a quality workout to burn fat. You need to have glycogen to burn fat, fat cannot burn by itself. Gels provide a quick and easily digestible source of glycogen (sugar) to prolong a workout thereby maximizing fat metabolism.

This article makes no sense, and futher, simply contributes to the idea that eating is bad.

Does bonking not mean 'having sex' in the US? Here in Australia your housemate might bring someone home and you can't sleep because of all the loud bonking in the next room.
