I think you will experience less Muscle Protein Breakdown if you get 20g pro before you workout. If you are going for maximal gains/intensity the carbs are likely attenuate better performance and endurance (plus you'll likely feel much better). If you are still keying in on fat loss you might be...
This might be relevant for your regimen, since you're training is pretty much fasted (BCAA's).
Despite claims that immediate post-exercise nutritional intake is essential to maximize hypertrophic gains, evidence-based support for such an “anabolic window of opportunity” is far from definitive...
Yeah that's a limiting factor for you. Keep working hard eat right and you will make gains. Your 155lb loss is very inspiring indeed. Optimal is relative to our situations. I wonder if switching your WO to later in the day might have it's benefits if you were trying to maximize muscle gains...
I've tried fasted training, it was hit and miss as far as my strength/endurance was concerned. A small carb-up about 90minutes preworkout does wonders on that front for me. I think fasted training is a great way to lose weight and for conditioning purposes. As for gaining muscle mass you're...
A lighthearted joke, with no offense meant.
By no means. All I'm saying is that our body's will have a certain anabolic/catabolic reaction to our training/eating. Fats/Carbs/Pro/BCAA's/EEA's all can be used to some degree to manipulate the situation, even it's to a very minor degree, it's one...
I want to see "Now Brand" whey protein isolate (unflavored) head to head with "PES" Select (any flavor)! Right now these are my two favorites and the ones that would be most interesting to me as a user.
You might as well say "Hormonal response to food is irrelevant." Maybe not the best approach when it's probably the best way for a "natural" athlete to effect nutrient partitioning.
Would it be how much harder you're able to go with intra-carbs? I did carbs 60min pre-workout yesterday and got a few pr's with ease. I felt so much stronger, but today I feel like my fat stores are up a little bit. I'm still trying to figure it out...
The study did say that the decrease in fatigue logically lends itself to chronically increased performance over time. I know that the "performance" increase didn't strictly fit their definition, but I'd say that for all intensive purposes the capacity to extend "acute workout time and volume" is...
Right on. I'm sure you'd get more benefit peri-wo if that's when your getting the vast majority of your carbs. I'm thinking the most benefit would still come at pre-wo carb intake as you'll be the least insulin sensitive here. I look forward to seeing your review of it. I've yet to delve into...
