AM work out diet question for shift workers
I read the whole unofficial bulking sticky.
My question is, how do swing shift people use this guide for max gains?
I work from 3pm to 11:30pm and often go in a half hour early and leave an hour later for OT. So, that screws up when I can eat. Labor rules say I get a half hour lunch and two 15 min breaks. I guess I can eat then but how do I eat? Pro/Fat or Pro/Carb?
I work out in the morning. I get up at about 9 and eat a bowl of oatmeal. I guess I should mix in some protiene. :scratch:
Your plan lists:
Meal 1: Pro/Carb, Meal 2: Pro/Fat, Meal 3: Pro/CarbMeal, 4: Pro/Fat, Workout, Meal 5: PWO Nutrition, Meal 6: PPWO, Meal 7: Pro/Fat, Meal 8: Before Bed
How would I make this work for me? Just start with the meal before I work out at breakfast, lable it meal one and continue down the line relabeling? Making meal three meal 8 and meal four meal 1 :yellowcon
My gym is only 24 hours three days a week. Should I just get up real late on those days and and hit the gym after work? Then Thursday sacrifice sleep and workout before going to Work?
What happens if I end up on grave yard shift? My AM cardio would be cardio when I woke up, then after work it would be AM weights at about 8 or 9 in the morning.
