Snacking and night cardio

[jeze]

Its seems as though whenever I run later at night I get hungry. Before the workout im fine but after i shower, I get so damn hungry . Does this happen to anyone else? I mean, I could do the obvious and excercise earlier but at night is usually when I have time.

Do you eat something after you workout at night?

Snacks, yes. I usually eat dinner then go workout.

I read in Muscle & Fitness that if you sip gatorade or similar during your cardio (don't know how that would be an option for runners), it will kill the after-cardio hunger pangs. Hold on...I'm looking for the article....

"Carbs During Cardio
You did your cardio, burned the fat, and now can't control your appetite. What gives? Try sipping Gatorade. Ingesting a carbohydrate drink during cardio sessions helps prevent overeating following exercise, reports the International Journal of Sports Nutrition. Study participants who ingested the carb drink ate significantly fewer calories throughout the remainder of the day.

I could do A.M cardio really but probably not consistently. I will need to disipline myself for it though.

the-short-one, thanks for the article. I'll try that first.
