Ive been on this site for a week now. This is my first post. My question is What foods should I eat when I have earned calories thru exercise? carbs or protien?

    Hi, this is my first week here too. The general knowledge says to eat more carbs than protein before exercise and more protein than carbs after exercise. Personally, I work out at different times of day, so I just eat whatever is appropriate for the time of day. It's very good that you're considering nutrition, though!

    If you are concerned about sugar spikes / drops it is a good idea to do a 1:1 ratio
