how do you eat after lifting?

[Mr.Kachok]

I dont know about you guys, but after a lifting session, i feel like im gonna lose it, much less think about eating more.

I down a shake right after, but feel sick for a few hours thinkin about it, so my question is, how do you guys take down hot food in summer (meat n stuff)? and can you live of shakes; i got 10 pounds of powder here!?

I don't think living off a shake is that good. I drink about 1/2 a glass of oj to restore blood sugar and then I eat a cold salad with tuna and eggs in it. Alway has been easy on my stomach

 

[Mr.Kachok]

thats a good idea, cold tuna sandwich, didnt think of it!, thx

 

[PolishHammer1977]

Whole foods and lots of them.

 

[Mr.Kachok]

whole foods dont go down just stuffed down like 10 'tiftalkes' (phrikadelki) (russian food)

I know what you mean brutha

I have been eating that way since I remember how to eat. Ask Lord Suston what the plates in my parents house look like? lolololol

I usually have a weight gainer shake (930 cals, 55 prot, 125 carb), followed by a chicken or beef sandwich a while later.

But I like the sound of your post workout meal. I think I'll give that a whirl. Ya think swapping chicken for the tuna would be just as good?

[Lord_Suston]

yeah just as good, the only problem with having a shake is that it is short amino acids; so after about 45 minutes your body has digested them all and is starving for more protein. I like tuna cause it is cheap and the make em in pouches now,lol

 

[louden_swain]

I typically drink protein and carbs after a workout, then 1 hour later I will eat a large meal.

shake & sandwich or 2 = 44-65 g Protien : 450-750 cals
