Hi there......

The rule of thumb is to EAT WITHIN 45 minutes of a weight lifting workout and to WAIT at least one hour after cardio. The theory is that you need the protein for the muscles after lifting but you want to give yourself an hour of fat burning time after cardio.

You may even find more detailed information in the stickey called LC and BFL - Tips and Hints, in the BFL Forum.

HTH
