Woooooo........Prncess?
What did I do or say that distrubed you? I AM overcoming this disease, slowly and surely and to say differently is pretty offensive considering the fact I've taken great strides and have taken the advice of many good bros on this board. No need to jump all over me. Let me explain.
You know my history (overtraining and undereating), now it's still overtraining, but my calories have DOUBLED! Sure I feel fat, bloated, and wanting to turn back (as would anyone going from 2,000 cals to 4,000), but the one thing I have not done yet is nix the cardio (although, the intensity level barely breaks a sweat, it's more of a tension release than anything else)....
My theory behind this post is as follows. I train at 5pm - done around 6:30 and either have an EAS MRP (which I got a free 3 boxes of, good protein, good quick carbs) or dext/whey/creatine. This is at 6:30pm. I usually have to sprint back to work, or sprint home, walk and feed the pooch, take care of home stuff and by the time I can catch my breath, it's 8:30 and I crash around 9pm. (Yes, I'm up at 5am and need my sleep!) SO, it's my only TRUE meal post training and one that I really do enjoy, as like I mentioned, it's relaxing...I watch the game, lay in bed and eat some grub (no crumbs in the sheets, trust me) as I drink my shake. So, it's PW nutrition, prebed nutirion, caloirc intake, etc...all wrapped up into one. Part of the reason I do am cardio is because I eat so late, my mind tells me I need to walk or do something before I have my am shake of eggs, flax, skim and whey.
So, I hope that helps......I want to know how determental it is to have a meal of that size prior to sleeping. I know carbs are essential postworkout, but it's right before bed, cant imagine having a big bowl of oats sitting in my stomach for 8 hours......with me?
