can I get a burger after a workout?

[Mowerl]

I have a question about nutrition and working out.
Today I went to the gym and I did 30 minutes on the treadmill at a fast walk
got in a really good sweat and I got my heart rate up.
After a workout like that would it be okay for me to go get a burger at a fast food joint? Would it affect my results from my workout and can you explain more?

yea just get no sauce on the burger and eat it

home made burger with correct ingredients is NOT the same as burger from a fast food joint

one is natural with quality ingredients and one is fake food.

It all depends on goals and what ypur macros are at the end of the day. I have burgers sometimes, when it fits

 

[SteveMobsterG]

No.

 

[zedhed]

fast food is the worst thing you can eat after a workout

IIFYM is the dumbest thing ever invented.

 

[Shrine]

macros don't matter when you are poisoning your body

 

[Zyglamail]

you don't see the best athletes eating garbage food do you

 

[Arabian]

make a fresh Burger yourself use lettuce to wrap it and don't add any bad things to it

 

[BookerTNY]

grass-fed Burger with lettuce and tomato. that is healthy

 

[sambee38]

you won't go wrong with high quality food

 

[Austin316]

your body wants rest and nutrition after a workout that's the important part

 

[Quadsweep]

you will ruin your workout if you eat crap afterwards

 

[BodyMonster34]

bro eat a steak real man food

 

[JasonPriest]

i don't see the top athletes in the world eating fast food except in their BS commercials.

 

[MasonicBodybuilder]

No, that would be a terrible choice. They use low quality cuts of meat and cook in unhealthy seed oils. Best thing to do is make a bunch of homemade burgers and freeze them.

 

[Noah Wixx]

Make it yourself fresh with a lettuce wrap.

Make your own

Alright, so after a workout like that, yeah you can go have a burger if you really want, but just know it might slow down your progress if fat loss is your goal. Treadmill burns calories, sure, but fast food like a burger can bring all those calories right back, even more sometimes. One time isn’t a big deal, but if you do it often, it adds up.
