Should You Eat Before Or After A Work Out?

This has been a long debated topic.Experts, physicians, trainers, athletes, all seem to come up with a different answer.

I have a personal opinion………….not that it’s based on anything but my own experience. If I eat too close to a work out, it’s not staying down. Sparing all of you the gross details, I’ll leave it at that.

Thats not always true for many, but for enough people to consider whether you should eat before or after.

There is a lot of science suggesting that eating right after a work out will increase fat burning and muscle retention. We all agree that eating sugar before or after a work out doesn’t do anything but hurt the end results.

Complex carbohydrates and lean proteins are the best for any healthy diet especially after a work out. Serious athletes and body builders all preach the benefits of protein shakes, which I personally agree with. They can pack serious proteins and minerals right after your work out.
Not all protein suppliments are alike, so do your research. Yes, there are many good ones and they are easliy avaiable at your local nutrition centers.

Whichever choice you make, as long as you are getting good results, then that’s the right one for you.
