I need some form of carbs for my morning workouts, and I've been having constipation issues, so I thought the prune juice might help both situations. Thoughts?

    Be careful with this one! I know that personally, really hard cardio tends to get things "moving" in my body, just on its own lol. Adding prune juice might make it dangerously uncontrollable! :laugh:

    Wear dark pants, and try this slowly if you do. Otherwise, try increasing fibre, or taking the juice after workouts. :smile:

    I am on week 5 of Turbo Fire, so the hard workouts haven't increased my "movements" yet... I work out at home, so I'll be near the toilet. ;) But yeah - maybe I shouldn't use it daily, but more like 3 mornings a week?

    Hehe, well if you're at home, go for it! I workout at the gym though, and I recall a not-so-nice incident last week where it was super early, and I had not much else but coffee before a long workout.... and it was a disaster. The bathrooms at my gym are on a separate floor. Not pleasant, LOL! I know that running super hard makes me "go", but things like 30-day shred & aerobics classes don't. It's strange! Let me know how it works out! :bigsmile:
