Nutrition after exercise fitness

Nutrition after exercise fitness- How important is food for your energy after exercise fitness? Depends, because different goals and different ways it depends on how well the incoming nutrients for the rest of your day. Nutrition after Exercise (NSL) is a topic of considerable debate because it was said that important in the NSL after 30-40 minutes of exercise, but others say not so necessary. In this article will discuss both and the reason behind it.

NSL who enter our bodies could have been a heavy food (rice and side dishes) or nutrient liquid milk or something. When we talk NSL immediately after exercise, nutritional liquid known to rapidly enter the muscle because it is very easy to absorb. The theory is an increase of insulin by the incoming NSL will bring carbohydrates and protein into muscle cells and increases protein synthesis.
If your goal is to increase muscle mass, I recommend NSL form of liquid nutrition with a maximum after 40 minutes of exercise and continued with a heavy meal 60-90 minutes later. NSL must contain high GI carbs, protein and fat but low micronutrient.

In this case, it is important to eat enough carbohydrates to increase insulin, which in turn will become the carrier of carbohydrates and protein into muscle cells and begin to repair the muscle layer. It is difficult to say how many carbohydrates should be consumed, because if you eat too much, then the excess will be stored as fat.
That’s why bulking phase (enlargement of muscle mass) and cutting (reduced fat) is recommended to be separated. For example, if someone wants to bring up his muscles and form a six pack, then he should apply the first phase of muscle enlargement to be achieved. After that just make the reduction of fat to form six pack. Read the rest of this entry »
