Help!!
I started a new 10 week cutting diet yesterday but am stuck in a position now where I have to do cardio and weight training in the same session. I'm a firm believer in doing cardio on an empty stomach but I'm also a firm believer in the importance of timely PWO nutrition. I'm not really sure how to time this. I've done cardio and training in the same session before and haven't noticed any difference in strength and stamina as I've usually taken a 25 min break between the 2 and ate something before I trained. I guess that I'm not sure if I should do it before or after. Any suggestions you can offer are more than appreciated.
Option 1: 45 mins cardio 65-75% MHR, 25 min break and eat 1/2 cup oats, scoop of whey and 10g glutamine, then train. I'm thinking that even though this is some extra carbs it should aid in getting my glycogen stores on track, then lift followed by PWO 1 and PWO 2
Option 2: Lift 30-45 mins (if I'm by myself this shouldn't be a problem, then cardio) followed by PWO 1 and 2.
I just don’t want to eat anything prior to cardio for obvious reasons.
The rest of my diet looks like this:
PWO 1, PWO 2, Pro/Fat, Pro/Fat, Pro/Fat, Pro/Fat
I'm planning on doing this for the first 9 weeks then do Swolecats 7 dayer the last week.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Also, I left my #@W! dex when I was out of state so I'm not sure what would be a good substitute to hit the simple carbs required in PWO 1 until I get another supply. Any ideas on that one?
