I drink a 22gram protein shake made w/water before my morning cardio workout. It is only 88cals and I feel it keeps me from using up precious muscle during cardio. I burn around 650-750cals during that workout. I think it's a good idea.

Yup. A 'little' protein before cardio is not a bad idea. Just don't overdo it 'cause excess protein will get converted to glycogen and act just like a carbohydrate. Also Glutamine is good if you can get enuf of it absorbed. I actually mix it in my drink bottle and sip it while I'm doing cardio. I go through as much as 30 grams a day when I'm cutting. ------------------ IP: Logged |
