PRE/POST Workout

[xnotoriousx]

What do you do for both?

What foods/supps do you eat for each?

Pre: 5mins before w/o 1 banana and 1 scoop of whey

Post:5 mins post w/o 2 scoops of whey and gatorade.

Should I change this?

[Deltasaurus]

yes more time between pre-WO meal and the WO give your-self a minimum of 45 mins to digest the meal, and then i would ditch the gatorade PWO and get something else, I know Muscle and fitness hypes it but that just BS the stuff is garbage IMO

[mousetraps]

For bulking I do 50g protein and 100g of simple carbs

an hour later i do the same.

fats aren't good post workout because it slows digestion when you want it to be as fast as possible.

i do a meal a while before workout, then 2 scoops whey + 1-2 bananas blended pwo

ive seen worse. Id bump back the pre to 30-min prior. Hopefully 1 1/2 hours before u r eating a solid pre wo meal. The post shake isnt actually all that bad with the high glycemic carbs,electrolytes and whey. JMO

i agree^^^

personally i like to have a PWO shake, so that 90minutes after that i can have another meal

Shake

50-60g of whey protein
70-80g of Waxy Maize Starch
10-15g of creatine

meal after that is pro/carb, normally something like

50g of protein from chicken/steak/eggs
70-80g of carbs from brown rice, sweet potatos, sushi(that was tonight, but it's rare)

Actually I would suggest people take in good fats PWO. They aid in repairing muscle and produce more PGE1 to reduce inflammation pwo.

I have been using fish oil pwo for quite sometime with fantastic results.

I would suggest people use a shake with some carbs only if they are at the gym and then drive home and eat a meal maybe 30min later with good oils in it.

50g pro+50g carb...ish.

Would a fish oil supplement suffice?
