Thanks fot your time.

This is very person dependent, I always leave an hour from pre workout to training, but I know some have to leave it 2 hours, so find what works for you and is digested

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks .

COR sits really well for me so I can do 1h before but most people prefer 90mins prior

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks.

This is pretty person dependent and also depend how much you’re having. Personally I tend to leave it around 1.5 hours

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks for your time.

Everyone will slightly differ in terms of food sources and digestability, So pick which sits right for you and pick the time frame you feel best pre training based on the amount you have. Im the same as Sara 10:30am for my pre workout meal 12pm for training start time is perfect for me and I have COR, but I have also had Oats and they both sit well

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks so much.

When it comes to pre training food , I personally always have it about 1.5 hours prior to training as I find it doesn’t make me feel ‘heavy’ when training. However I know some people have it a little closer or a little further away , so it’s ultimately down to how you feel and how well you digest the food. If you want a general recommendation, anywhere between 1-1.5 hours is what a lot of people typically do.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks, i will try both options.

Ultimately do what works for you, but I like carbs pre and post, regardless of the food the day before as you’ll still benefit from the readily available energy for performance, as well as get improved recovery post.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks for your answer.

All comes down to personal preferences
I opt for more carbs around training pre and post

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks so much.

I like carbs pre and post. It’s preference really if you want them pre training.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

I will. Thanks for your time.

Some good points here, I think it’s likely a case of finding out what works best for you! Maybe try a few ways for a period of time and see how you get on!

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks i will try both options.

Your over analysing a little of what people say.

yes what we eat the night before will be digested and loaded/stored as glycogen in the muscle. We also then want CHO readily available in the blood stream to be utilised as energy in general and also to be moved to storage when/if needed so we dont become depleted.

Remember we are constantly moving and burning. If we just ate at tea time and then breakfast potentially by the time training comes we may be slightly depleted.

However some people do get on better with lower to no carbs pre workout – as with everything its very individual and what you are doing in the acute setting

[Nicolas Cantemir]

This is my case. Thanks.

I don’t use no carb pre for any clients if lifestyle if they are training super duper early or those with long work days who train early they’ll still have a larger meal the night before and then some small easy to get in carbs as they wake to into there session ready

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks for your answer

Carbs imo pre and post
Workout are very important, they will fuel training performance and recovery

I personally am not a fan of no carb pre ever

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks so much.

There are no rules mate you can structure it how you like and however feels best for you

[Nicolas Cantemir]
