    Electrolytes are very helpful imo , especially if you work a manual job , so they will be better than glutamine which I would only bother with if the cash is there spare . Imo sipping electrolytes on the way to training and then finishing them off at the start and then drinking performance fuel for the rest of the session, will be superb if you have had a hard day

    What are they called

    You tell me ? Does it ? I don’t have an active day job , so when you eat less carbs Vs more carbs do you feel better or worse ?

    I use to do lower carb days on rest days and definitely felt it

    No , many people have protein and fat meals pre training .

    Think of it as a petrol tank in your car , if your tank is full from filling it the day before, it’s still full! You don’t need more immediately before a journey . Our body stores glycogen in the same way , if you have carbs the night before and the morning of , your glycogen stores are more than full and the immediate pre meal is then solely about digestion leading into the session

    Do u think having a active day job could effect this

    Nothing is over kill if you feel good

    Do you feel good going into session?

    I have 40g carbs in my pre meal , that’s about 5 percent of my daily carbs , I then have another 40g during , another 5 percent . That is ideal for ME

    If you like more , have more

    I feel ok some times abit full if I don’t give enough time to digest I just thought the more the better really

    You don’t necessarily have to eat any at all , in that if you have had carbs through the day and the day before, glycogen is stored and your ready to go . I have a very small carb meal pre as I prefer to have less in my stomach and I can train harder doing that and then sipping performance fuel across the session . That is my preference

    How much fuel do you have
