I have always known carbs before, and protein after a workout.

What do you eat?

  • What ever I can whenever I can!!! LOL Seriously I don't follow any rules about eating before or after. Frankly the thought of eating before my workout kinda makes me ill. But I am willing to learn and will be watching the post

  • I agree with you. You still have to try to eat healthy and small portions though, but I have a trainer and he said that you just need to eat 30-45 mins. before a workout to kinda get the food digested and you'll have the energy to work out

    I have a light snack, usually fruit or veggies with hummus before a workout and do protein after, which I sometimes get with a shake or bar.
