M&F RAW! NUTRITION #1 – PRE-WORKOUT CARBS APPLES VS. ORANGES
by admin on Tuesday, June 1st, 2010 | 10 Comments
Check out more fitness articles and videos at: www.muscleandfitness.com We all know there is a formula for success in the weight room. Eating foods and taking supplements specifically for what you’re training for is just as important as knowing what muscle groups your going to train that day. Fortunately for you M&F Raw makes it as easy as literally comparing apples to oranges. Jim Stoppani PhD takes a “close” look into what pre-workout carbs you should be eating before your next training session.
Just out of curiosity, only one apple or orange will suffice? 30 grams of carbs seems very little to me to complete an intensive hour of weightlifting. And what about adding simple sugars, such as yogurt into the mix? Good or bad?
What is your opinion about coconuts water before Workout our during workout?
Thank You for the tips.
Peace.
why not just blend half an apple and half an orange with your protein?
good idea.
skrew blending it just eat a whole apple and orange or what ever u want to do
WHAT ABOUT MY BANANA!?
llmao
I eat a pear before I workout because I don’t like apples and eating an orange before I lift gives me acid reflux.
vitamin c reduces cortisol too, right?
orange have quercitin too!!! super critical
I don’t know what really to take away from that…
You say the apple contains polyphenols – which are critical to muscle building.
Then you say oranges have Vitamin C – which promotes nitric oxide…ALSO critical to muscle building.
That’d be great if you could make it clear when/why you’d want one or the other, but you arguments seem to suggest that they are interchangable.
Am I misunderstanding something?
