Read the sticky at the top of this page and all these answers will be ansered....thank you.
Does it make a difference if you just did cardio as opposed to doing weights?
I don't take in carbs after my cardio but thats b/c i do it at night but I don't think you need to. You are not destroying many fibers while doing cardio so there is nothing to repair...only your metabolism is kicked into overdrive to burn the fat.
Thanks!

your stats, your goals, how your body chemistry responds, age, sex (u a chic? whats up.) kinds of macronutrients, etc all come into factor.


but ill tell you what you want to hear... 40gr protein and 40 gram carb in both meals, one after training and one 2 hrs later

That means i just blurted out some generic info becuase thats all he was basicly asking for. In short, what I said was a joke...or mockery if you will...of the question at hand. I feel you failed to fully comprehend the post.

PS: not trying to be a jagg hoff to Shannon C just open her mind up a little to the wonderful diversity of different peoples body chemistry.
