Thread: Cardio after working out

i cant see how a pwo shake immediately before cardio can be good with all that liquid in your stomach?

yeah thats what im saying bro . But ive done some forum searching and found that its bad to wait too long after lifting weights for PWO shake. SHould i ditch the cardio or do it in the morning?

The best is to drink 20-25 grams of protien, 10g glutamine w/water-(no sugar) half way- to the end of weight training.

Then cardio afterwords is fine.

Ideally, your PWO shake would be w/i 10 minutes for ultimate growth, but you are on a cut and as long as it is w/i 1 hour, you are fine. I wouldnt do it and then run.

whats wrong with drinking protien during workout?

make your cardio workout short and intense, then have your shake.

when you consume a easily digestable protein like whey when the body is an a hypoglycemic state a good portion of it will be oxidized for fuel. you should always use both protein and carbs after a training session.

Absolutely

After I agree, but not just prior to an intense cardio. For me this would mean projectile vomiting. For me, I have to take it about 1 hour prior to the workout. IF I took it during my intense workouts, I would, as the Austrians say, "eat backwards". I can only stomach little bits of water, maybe Powerade if it is really hot.
