What should you eat after exercising
Post-exercise nutrition is especially important for those who actually exercise. The right diet can enhance the effectiveness of exercise, but a wrong diet can weaken and reduce the effectiveness of exercise. The Russian website Ladyspecial gives sound advice on what to eat after exercise.
1, if you want to exercise into a block of muscle, then milk is an absolute taboo. Because something in milk can disrupt the formation of massive muscles in an instant.
2. If you have too much body fat, you need to eat a pure protein diet after you exercise.
3. Don’t eat too much within 3 hours before exercise, so as to “ease into battle”. As an energy source, foods high in carbohydrates should be consumed after exercise to boost insulin levels in the body. Hormones hold on to substances that are good for the body. If insulin is not at the level the body needs, then the destructive catabolic process can begin after exercise. Essential carbohydrate foods include honey, noodles, bananas, cereal, bran bread and freshly squeezed fruit juice.
4. It is recommended to drink a cocktail of protein, or branched amino yogurt protein, immediately after exercise. This would make protein synthesis in muscle tissue two times more efficient. The composition of the protein affects the secretion of amino acids and muscle recovery.
5. Do not consume any food or drink containing caffeine, such as chocolate, tea and coffee, within 2 hours after exercise. Otherwise caffeine blocks insulin from processing glycogen in the liver and muscles. If you exercise at night, you shouldn’t eat anything two hours before your workout.
