BFL C1 - Questions...
Hey everyone. I have lost 20lbs thus far with low carb and walking. I am ready to take it up a notch, so I am going to give low carb BFL a try. I have tried BFL before, but did not get much out of it. Looking back I realize I had way too many carbs. I start C1 on Monday so I have a couple of quick questions.
1. I realize that I will have to up my carbs so i'm going to have a Myoplex as a Post Workout Shake. Does anybody have any kind of post workout shake after cardio (which will be HIIT) or is it better after cardio not to bother? I guess what I should say is does anyone have carbs after the aerobic session?
2. I see there is a little disagreement as to when to take the meal with carbs, before or after training. I was just curious what most of you do. Before or after the workout for optimal performance.
3. I understand the science behind doing cardio first thing in the morning, but I was curious what peoples personal experience was with early morning cardio. It still sounds catabolic to me. Especially the weight training first thing in the morning. Because low carbers glucose is so low anyway would we not reap the benefits anytime of day?
I appreciate any advice or comments. I will be starting to record in my journal on Monday so anyone can feel free to drop in and offer up their advice, criticisms etc.
Thanks again,
Clive
