pre workout meal

[Daddy Fatsacks]

i'm trying to come up with a cutting diet. from what ive read, the bulk of your carbs should be at breakfast and pwo. so what would be best to eat for my preworkout meal??

[taiboxa]

i love carbs pre work out! mandatory IMO

[novastepp]

yeah put them there too. acrbs are not bad when cutting. use a low GI carb and you should be fine.

[hangtight08]

what would be an ideal carb source pwo then?

[Daddy Fatsacks]

thanx fellas.

[Daddy Fatsacks]

what would be an ideal carb source pwo then?

from what i've been reading, thats a highly debated issue. some say malto/dext combo and some say low gi carbs like a yam or baked potato.

Meh...I like carbs throughout the day. Just dont go crazy and have 4 sweet potatoes at one time. I agree with what Tai said...carbs pre workout are a must.

[taiboxa]

i like oats, yams, grapefruits something along those lines

[chest6]

Yeah I've done sweet potatoes and oats pretty exclusively for awhile now. Tai you have sumthin against brown rice don't you? I wanna get to the bottom of the brown rice hate eventually

its a very high GI
it makes me BLOAT probably do to minor food allergy as nark and pinn stated so yeah its a stupid food

[novastepp]

i too hate the way rice makes me feel. makes me feel like i drank a gallon of water... and i need to burp and fart for like 20 minutes just to feel like "general" crap.

my ex wife used to say GOD u sound like a dinosaur.. a DINOSAUR BURPING!
afetr my pwo meals that had rice ><

[timtim]

its a very high GI

brown rice is not a high gi food and when combined with a protein source the gi is lowered to around 18. thats like saying peanuts are high gi.

[novastepp]

he was kidding

[timtim]

i am oblivious to any tone when its written in text. thats the main reason i dont im or email. i really am completely unaware of anything implied online.

also, this guy mackiavelli on elite who is in crazy condition said brown rice would bloat and smooth him out. dudes ridiculously shredded so i figured other people may have this issue too. his diet was interesting, definately knows his stuff. so that also lead to my misunderstanding.

[novastepp]

hey man its all good. usually when i'm joking i like to add a or something. i knw he didn't but a lot of people do. and if u know Tai or his demeanor, you'd know he's a light-hearted fellow with good intentions. no harm man.

[taiboxa]

but im just saying there are way more beneficial carbs out there that can be utilized way more effecitve by the body such as yams/potatos and others similar to that... as far as rice goes.. its stupid

but chicken without rice is like a pizza without cheese

Got to love potatoes though. A few potatoes and a big nice steak.

Daddy just about any carb with any lean protein source will work. Wont make a noticable difference if its potatoes, rice, pasta, whole grain bread, milk, fruits ect.

i feel like dirt if i get too far into gluten, like that in breads. and rice, like i said makes me feel liek crap. but in reference to GI i agree with you totally. when you consume a good deal of protein...people take the GI thing way too far. but it does matter, just not so much with those foods you listed.
