Title: A Concise Overview of Pre-Workout Nutrition
Post by: HugeRipped on April 13, 2010, 10:26:18 AM
It is important to eat a meal consisting of a specific macronutrient blend between 120 and 180 minutes before working out. One needs adequate time for the food to pass along the digestive tract so as not to cause indigestion or stomach pain during intense resistance training that regularly involves abdominal contractions. To provide sustained energy throughout a workout one should consume 30 grams of carbohydrates, coming from dietary fibers. Avoid simple sugars as they will give you a brief release of energy, but cause a "crash" shortly thereafter and invetiably interfering with one's workout. Furthermore, it is inadvisable and a waste of calories to consume more than 10 grams of protein pre-workout. At the very maximum, energy expendeiture provided by protein during resistance training consists of 15 percent. As evidenced by the latter percentage, protein is not biologically efficient for preworkout nutrition. Consuming a large amount of protein preworkout will simply be a waste of calories. Ideally, a preworkout meal should be 160-200 calories (10g protein, 30g carbohydrates, no more than 4.4 grams fat).

It is so evident from your posts and lack of confidence that this is your protein drink of choice.  Sorry son but you need to get back to reality.

So what's this boil down to, a yogurt 2-2.5 hours before you train?   ???

Yogurt lacks the macronutrient efficacy directly related to pre-workout nutrition. I would suggest 1/2 cup of rolled oats and either 1 small egg or 1/2 cup of firm tofu 3 hours prior to resistance training. This will provide you with 210-230 calories, ~12 grams of protein and almost 30g carbohydrates.

Thanks for the tip, maybe I'll try it.

1/2 cup tofu...this and that


so no matter your fitness level, metabolic activity, age, gender, weight ----- EVERYONE is supposed to eat the same AMOUNT of shit b4 a workout??

tofu is like 20% absorbed - shit is like paper

What if you eat the pre-workout meal at 119 or 181 minutes? What happens?

Best and most productive workouts I usually have are when I have a large piece of cake 45 minutes before training.

 I don't agree with Communism, but there's nothing really wrong with it. It's just another system of government.

 Let people believe whatever they want. Your way isn't any better.

 Please explain exactly what is wrong with communism.

 Lots of people just think "Communism is bad", but they don't even have any reason to think it. They've just been brainwashed to automatically think that.

 So what is wrong with Communism exactly?

 I'm American.
