Gropro & w8 - morning workout
I am willing to start working out early in the morning, and I wonder how should I manage my diet. I will wake up at 6 am and workout around 7am. Should I drink or eat anything before heading to the gym? As I am on a cut phase, this means eating too few, I am affraid that I will use muscle mass as energy if I go to the gym on an empty stomach.
this is my diet:
#1 - cup of oats, 1 fruit, 10 egg whites
#2,3,4 - 8 oz chicken, 4 oz sweet potato, veggies
#5 - post-workout meal - 80 grams of maltodextrin with 45 grams of Designer whey
# 6 - 8 oz chicken with veggies
#7 - 30 grams of Designer whey

IMO...you should eat before working out...I think your lifts would suffer lifting on an empty stomache.
If you are on a cut, why are you taking malto?
Your diet has virtually no EFA's...I'd add some flax seed oil to most of those meals.

I am taking malto because as everyone says, if you don't put any carbs after working out your muscles will breakdown and the recovery will be harmed. And my goal is to lose fat holding my weight, I have 10 % of bodyfat but I want 3 % for the contest
I forgot to say but on every meal , other than post-workout, I put flaxseed oil

Naturally, 3% will be hard unless you do some good drugs to get there!

it can be done it just takes a whole ton of work. I would recomend a scoop of whey preworkout. But if you are competing the whey will have to go at about 6 weeks out.

If you are 6 weeks uot you will definately need to decrease...or should I say eliminate the maltodextrin from post-workout meals otherwise you will find yourself very hard-pressed to go from 10% to 3% in only 6 weeks.
Searching for the right balance...

You definitely need to ditch the malto...you won't lose LBM by not taking it post workout...switch to a regular low carb protein powder and use oats for your carb source.Originally posted by fgarcez

Thanks Guys, I have just checked yesterday, how is my BF, and guess what, 7%... with six weeks out....I think I going to go.
So you guys really think I must take out my post training malto and drink only pure protein?
I wonder why? And how will my body hold LBM with no carbs after train? Isn't that going to harm the recovery process?
