well for almost everybody there ppwo is a solid food source. so go ahead and go straight to lunch, eat lean protein and carbs. keep the fat minimal.
my PPWO falls pretty late..midnight usually..a lil later at times. On nonworkout days..i nix it..and my only pro/carb meal is after cardio. I am still hesitant to have the PPWO pro/carb since it falls so late at night. Im wondering if it is still essential even though I would be going to sleep 2 hours later.
if it fits in your calorie intake for the day
i dont really see the big deal is in having the ppwo
and it dont matter when if its a ppwo its a ppwo
on your non workout or cardio only days you should just replace your second meal with another pro/carb. that way you have the day to burn it off...but i think you need more carbs than just one meal no matter what you're doing. the body and brain need 50g carbs just to run itself...so i would make that your absolute minimum if you must.Quote:

hey chest. this past year i dropped about 10% bf while retaining most of my muscle. i worked out late at night and still did my two pwos the second being 2 hrs. before bed. dont be worried about gaining excess fat, your body will suck those carbs right up after intense workout. on non workout days i get in all my carbs before 7pm
thanks man..ill keep it in there no matter what time I workoutQuote:

Just my opinion....
I mean bigger muscle wise, not just total "weight"...........
~SC~
