Before a workout should u load up on carbs? Im not sure about the diet part of wieght training, if i knew i would be pretty cut up. But if you wana lose bf% while keeping some mass, do you load up on carbs before you lift, and have like a protien shake after? Thanx Guys
After you should load up with a protein shake and glutamine. You can actually feel the energy going back into your boy. Post workout protein shake is the most important meal of your day
Before workout, I swallow 1/4 cup of oatmeal and a smoop of whey.=205cals.
Post workout should be Whey protein & simple sugars(dextrose/Malto)
Depending on what brand of protein you buy, glutamine will already be added. Sometimes I add more or if i have an Isopure MRP I add glutamine.
Post workout needs to be 50gprotein, and 40gdextrose. It's the only part of the day you should have any kind of simple sugar.
Preworkout meal should definitely be low GI index carbs like pasta or oatmeal along with a good amount of protein to give you energy and keep muscle catabolism during your workout to a minimum.
preworkout meal
go ahead load on carbs but dont over do it
like it was stated before eat complex carbs ex.pasta/oatmeal,etc
protein shake wit a mix of simple carbs after an intense workout
