05 Aug What to eat pre workout (LIVE broadcast)
What to eat pre workout!
In the broadcast I mentioned several different things I do
First I have some fast acting carbs and fast absorbing protein pre workout. This is the time that I don’t have fats. I am a huge fan of fat in my diet, but pre workout I don’t want to slow down the nutrients from the carbs and proteins absorbing.
Whey Protein is a very high quality protein which is also digested VERY quickly. It is great first thing in the morning, before & after workout, or when you need to bump up the protein content of a meal. Ideally, I suggest drinking a 1/2 of a scoop of whey pre and post workout with a simple piece of fruit such as an apple. This gives your muscles the ideal nutrients to get through tough workouts and help your body repair itself afterwards. Another huge benefit of whey is it helps to blunt your hunger which is terrific – ESPECIALLY useful when you get those food cravings!
The whey protein powders that I use are HERE
I mentioned a few supplements I do take in addition to my whey and orange drink.
Over the years I have encountered SO MANY bad supplements and wasted so much money on “suggestions” that I have become very untrusting of ads and endorsers promoting the “latest and greatest”. However, I do believe many supplements can have a place but for the right reasons in ADDITION to a healthy diet and being active.
The Energy Shot I mentioned in the video you can find HERE
I like this one over ALL other energy drinks personally because it truly contains NOTHING artificial. Not even sucralose! AND it has no “crash” effects like most energy drinks do. e+ reduces the effects of fatigue with naturally-
sourced caffeine and a proprietary blend of adaptogenic botanicals. e+ contains no added sugars, artificial colors, sweeteners or flavoring found in other energy shots. Their proprietary, energy-boosting formula delivers: A Quick energy boost that lasts for hours, a kick-start to my workouts, improved focus and physical performance, clarity and alertness, a safe, effective and natural energy boost and just 35 calories a shot.
The Multi Probiotic that I mentioned in the video: “Multi- Probiotic” from Original Medicine
The Omegas I mentioned in the video Omega-3 Power from Amen Solution
The Product B I mentioned in the video you can find HERE
Product B® IsaGenesis® is a powerful blend of complex botanicals and vitamins uniquely designed to offer superior telomere support for youthful aging. For optimal telomere benefits, take as part of your daily Isagenix nutritional system.
What I look for in a supplement company
This is a personal preference, but I choose supplements with a high standard of product quality. I look for pure sourced ingredients and companies that value sustainability for not only us, but for the planet. I look at research, quality control and I make sure everything is tested. Although there are a number of companies I feel are good and that I use, I am a big fan of Isagenix HERE.
Be Happy… Be Healthy… Be FIT!
