Need ideas for morning meal after fasting cardio??Somthing quick
I just started doing this in the am.
4 out of 5 posts you made are asking for food recipes. Have you ever considered contributing anything or are you just a taker?
YouShouldGetWha...This is my personal recipe:
4 scoops of porridge (I use the scoop from my whey protein, think its between 40-60g)
Put in plastic bowl in which you still have about 10cm of room omce you’ve filled until a slushy mix with water)
Put in microwave for 2 mins (any longer and the porridge will rise and you’ll be cleaning molten porridge from the inside of the microwave)
Pour one more scoop in for texture, along with milk or soy to your own taste (it tastes 10x better this way)
Put in a scoop of whey protein (or whatever protein you use)
Et voila, you have yourself a meal that will see you through until lunch time thanks to the protein and complex carbs.
Very nice
In the morning breakfast I usually eat banana, guava, orange, grape. Is this well enough? What do you think?
Well enough for what? You trying to gain weight, lose weight, just be fit and healthy and look average?
Stay away from all carbs for first meal if trying to lose fat. Your body has switched over to fat burning mode due to the fast overnight and you want to keep it in fat burning mode for as long possible. As soon as you consume carbs it switches over to using them as a fuel source. Eat a ham and cheese omlet and skip the hashbrowns and toast.
Not trying to hijack this thread, but I do want to get your opinion on this. I am currently cutting on a low carb diet (down to 75g/day at this point, still losing 1.5-2 lbs/week, I am expecting to need to start implementing carb cycling in about 3 weeks to continue losing without taking calories too low... Just to give you an idea of where I am at.
With all of that being said, lifting is the first thing I do when I wake up. Like wake up, go to the gym, shower, change go to work from the gym. With that being the case, I usually get my daily carbs in via 45g carbs in a bowl of oatmeal pre-workout, then 24g carbs immediately after via 24 oz milk + whey.
My main goal is to plan my carbs around my weight training so that my energy/strength level in the weight room is not as negatively impacted and I am able to get some fast digesting carbs in immediately after. This approach also allows me to cut off my carbohydrate intake well before 12:00.
It has worked very well for me, so I am not necessarily questioning it. I just wanted to get your input since I have never heard anyone say not to eat carbs with the first meal of the day and now I am curious if I have been leaving some fat loss potential on the table.
Again, the main reason I am curious is because the first meal of the day for me is also my pre-workout meal and I am curious about your thoughts on this scenario.
Thanks man. I really enjoy learning from you and the others here
YouShouldGetWha...I agree, I workout middle of the night and I like to get some carbs in the form of porridge innthe morning to replace what I’ve burnt in the night.
What you are doing is exactly what you should be doing if working out right away in the morning. You want to focus most of your carbs around your workout. My advice is for someone working out later in the day. That is a good clarification that I should have made.
I figured that was probably the case and the real importance was getting the carbs in around the workouts. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't over looking anything.
Thanks man
Well thanx for spoiling my fasted cardio bfast lol....I usually have peanut butter on double fiber bread along with eggs/ whites....thanx for the tip! ......no-homo
Something quick: oats, cereal, banana, or bread + eggs(whites) and Protein shake
If I am in a hurry I will puree a serving of raw oats and dump them into a shaker with a scoop of blended protein powder and 12 oz of milk (or sub with unsweetened almond milk). Takes less than a minute to prepare and can be drank in the car on the way to work.
basskiller8930-50oz water + 40g oats + a packet of splenda just to take down my multi, vitamin k and probiotic
I'm never too hungry anytime before 12-1pm
my first meal is always a little heavy on carb....i like cream of rice
GlycogenGuyI personally think breakfast is overrated when it comes to performance. When I fast and skip breakfast I'm stronger and sharper in everyway.
8 oz pasteurized egg white
8 oz water
1 scoop protein of your choice (I like a good mix of whey, casein, and pea protein)
Lean, quick, gets the job done. If you were bulking I’d add peanut butter and fruit and blend it, otherwise a shaker works fine.
Keep it simple:
10-15 mins and it's ready to eat!
Cheddar powder??? Never heard of it
walmart, hoosier hill farm - gourmet cheddar cheese Powder (2.5 lbs box)
tastes great!
Is that like the powdered peanut butter?Real cheese or just cheese flavor?
real
I’m always looking for a way to liven up those snotty egg whites. I’ll give them a shot! Thanks bro
try it I think you'll like it ;)
Study intermittent fasting you can find how to really take advantage of fasted cardio.For example,waiting an additional period of time before eating can give you much better results.Then your first meal needs to be keto friendly.In fact,keep carbs minimum until pre workout and post workout.Veggies are ok but nothing dense like rice or potato and certainly nothing high glycemic.
This^ depending on goals of course. Fat and protein for the first two meals, spread always at about 4 hours apart. (Helps with glycemic control/regulation). Our bodies (in general) are (usually) most metabolically efficient to burn carbohydrates later in the day, contrary to common knowledge.
What about eggs and porridge? Standard selection for bodybuilders or is it just me??
