Ever wondered what you should be eating before those hard workouts?
What about after?
And did you know that what you eat/consume DURING your workout can be potentially the most important variable towards making progress and seeing results?
Well today we learn!
Pre-workout: we want to look at a combo of protein to carbs- carbs for energy, protein for repair! Ideally 1-4 hours before your workout, but some of this is very specific to the person so experiment a little to see what works for you and your body!
Post-workout: again, we are going to look for a combination of carbs & protein. For the same reasons as pre-workout, but this time we want to try and consume it within 60 minutes of our workout. This will allow for optimal recovery and growth.
Intra-workout: during your workout you have depleted those energy stores and your body is in the best state to receive and utilize nutrients for recovery and growth! We want to look at consuming EAA's (essential aminos), Carbohydrates (in the form of direct sugar, ie; fruit, candy, gatorade, etc.), Caffeine (for increased circulation and max output), and Creatine (if properly dosed).
Here are some of OUR recommended products:
- Essential Aminos: Jacked Factory EAA's
- Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy (BCAA's and Caffeine)
- Creatine Monohydrate Nutrabio
