I feel better and more energetic to run after a having a small meal. Have been doing that about 3 times already.
Just wondering whether I am doing the right thing;

Could someone advise or give me tips on burning fats?

I am 29 years old,weighing 165 lbs and standing at 175 cm and am running for 20 mins at a heart rate of 142, then the next 25 mins at a HR of 155-160, Burning 550 calories and running a distance of 7km.

I have a meal 2-3 hrs before the run, and have a 20grams of protein, mixed in milk bout 45 mins before and 2-4 grams of L-Glutamine 15 mins before the cardio workout.

About 10-15mins After the run, a small meal, coupled with a 25grams of whey protein.

Thanks...
