  • The fruits and vegetables aren't a problem at all! As long as the sugars are not from empty calorie foods with nothing BUT sugar, then they are still very healthy, so fruits and vegetables don't have that problem.

  • Eating protein after your workout is better, it will just sit in your stomach like a lump and not digest if you consume it before. Additionally, after your workout is when your muscles are more receptive to protein, since they just got worked and need the tools to rebuild.

  • I have the 405, but a friend of mine has the 350. They are both pretty similar overall, although the 350 might actually have a few different features. The 405 is definately sleeker and less clunky though. I would highly recommend either one. Its helped me become a better runner and is great for pacing or distance runs…
