    @debtay123 fast carbs are things like breads, pastas, sweets, processed frozen foods. If you crave any of that stuff the best time to eat it is right after a hard cardio session so your body burns it quick. But don't go over board.

    If that's how it worked, wouldn't it be better to eat them before the cardio so you burn them off during the cardio session? Or even better, after a heavy weights session to help with muscle growth/repair?

    @debtay123 that's how its works for me. You will have to experiment to see what works for you. I don't eat them every time after a workout and I don't like to eat before a workout. I usually have a protein shake before workout. After a good weightlifting session I will incorporate slow carbs like sweet potatoes, quinoa, black beans, sour dough bread, whole grain pasta etc.
