how this for morning carbs

[TheOak84]

2 pancakes - 30 g
egg bagel - 45 g
1 cup of wheat cereal- 45 g
2 slices of wheat toast - 25 g

as for protien

16 oz of milk = 16 g
3 eggs - 21 g
some protien from the egg bagel, i think 10 g

how does your breakfast look?

Personally, I'd much rather go higher on the protein and lower on the carbs.......you're talking over 100g of carbs in one meal bro....I usually eat 3/4 CUP OF STEEL CUT with 2 eggs, 10 whites, and maybe toss in a protein scoop for good measure........


Oh........and the..............

[bran987]

is he saying he eats all of those in one meal or those are his sources throughout the week?

 

[Stryc-9]

That is a big ass breakfast if he eats all of that at once!

My breakfast is usually 1/2 cup steel cut oats (soaked in water overnight) and grilled chicken breast. If I'm in a rush I'll swap out the chicken with some protein powder.

why do you soak ur oats in water overnight? how is this different than microwaving them or pouring hot water over the oats?

Thanks

 

[JKurz1]

only if you use steel cut bro.....makes cooking a ton easier

 

[bran987]

I use organic rolled oats.. what's the difference?

 

[Stryc-9]

The steel cut oats are about as unprocessed as you can get - so they're very, very hard to chew unless you soak them. They're sometimes called "Irish Oats" or something like that. They're round and very hard (impossible to chew when raw). I guess you could boil them but that would take 20 minutes. I prefer to just soak them overnight - they get soft and then I just eat it cold. It's really just me being lazy!!

The rolled oats are also excellent though. They are obviously more processed than steel cut oat - but the difference it makes in GI isn't the reason I go with the steel cut oats - I just like the texture difference.

Awful lot of carbs. As for the pancakes, I love making them out of oatmeal and they taste great too. Throw all the ingregients in a blender and let it rip...instant batter. Check out my favorite mix http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=305365

Are you bulking?
Either way, the bagel is a really really bad choice.

[Millie]

processed carbs of the worst kind.
if you want to have bread, at least go for whole wheat.

 

[JKurz1]

[JKurz1]

Good to hear.....because fat gain with that many carbs and processed shit in one meal will most likely result....but since you don't care....no worries.....

If this is pre-workout, you will want the foods to be absorbed as quickly as possible...so they can give you energy to train. Processed foods are NOT a good idea for pre-training....processed foods usually contain chemicals and/or ingredients that our body cannot use appropriately. This means that they will not be effective in giving your body energy to train.

Clean foods are easier for your body to use, therefore will be more effective as pre-workout foods.

No matter WHAT your goals, cleaner foods are better than processed...no ifs ands or buts about it. Stick with rice, potatoes, oatmeal, cream of wheat for carbs.
