Default Empty stomach

How long do you have to wait after eating until you have an "empty stomach?"

Depends on the person but you shouldnt keep waiting for an "empty stomach". You should have at least 5 quality meals per day.

After eating, you should be waiting about an hour before working out.

Wait about 45-60 minutes before consuming the ZMA

if your last meal of the day is CC and skim milk wouldn't it be best to consume ZMA before the CC&skim milk since caclcium interferes wtih magnesium absorption?

Yes, or digest for at least 1 hour after that meal. I usually have my ZMA, then eat 30-60 minutes after.
