WORKOUT means WEIGHTS! In the morning, don't eat before 'cardio'. DO eat before weights.Gladiola said:
How much time do you all have between this workout & meal? I personally usually have some fat & carbs within 60 min of the workout. Will have had a balanced complex carb/veggie/protein meal an hour or 2 before that. Shake is post WO.
Actually that would depend on the Glycemic Index of the food, I believe. The GI is a measure of how quickly the food will cause a rise in your blood sugar. Hence some foods being called, "Quick" - like sugar & some fruits.NorwayFitness said:
oh, no no no no, you don't get to be the one to complain here!
We Americans are the fattest on the planet. Those of us on Elite who are trying to eat 'clean' & be exceedingly fit are such a tiny minority. We must deal with friends, family, & co-workers often taunting us with "good" (junk) food, and/or teasing us/ treating us like freaks for our habits. OMG, it is SOO tiresome! I started getting nasty about it when I kept getting comments when they would buy pizza for my department or the company, & I would have my tuna & broccoli. I've been working here 1.5 years, you think you all would freakin be used to it right now! You'd think I sat at the lunch table naked, the big deal they make of what I eat!!Gladiola said:
Yes, that's the truth. The average American thinks eating healthy food is some kind of mental disorder.This "good food" is like a wolf in sheep's clothing. Other than drinking skim milk, I never eat sugar free anything. All those strange chemicals. I'm convinced they put something in there to make you eat the whole box.
Just give me the real thing - it tastes better, it's more satisfying, and I eat less.
Same in my department, they look at me like i NEED to eat it, and Almost give me dirty looks for not wanting to eat the "pizza" or cookies that someone made.
