I go to to the gym 2x 2hrs a week, doing mainly cardio. I don't want to achieve anything too extreme, just tone up a bit.
I don't count calories and don't cut anything out of my diet, just trying to watch it a littlebit.
My question is when shall I eat which food groups before and after workouts? And the days inbetween?
I know what carbs and protein is and I'm not looking for specific recipes. Also I don't want to do any protein only meals, cos they drive me crazy and want to make me eat a whole cake and hour after.
Thanx
