Great choices for post workout is a combination of protein and whole grain carbohydrates. I usually go for a protein shake with a little oatmeal, or 4 ounces of chicken with some quinoa. Some people choose a simple protein bar, but be careful of excessive sugars and fats. Quest bars are usually the best choice since many can pack either a ton of sugar or worse, fake sugars.
I have been going to the gym about 4 times a week, doing cardio and also weight machines but still have not lost weight.
m going to lose 17 pounds I would like to do induction for one month and workout 5 days a week heavy weight training in 1 hour cardioI just need to stay away from the alcohol and I should do fine but i bartend feel like that's the only way to unwind at the end of the night I need to find other ways to relax I did meditation twice and it did wonders for me I just have to get into the habit after working 14 hour days 5 days a week I just want to sit and relax with my wine I know that's a p
Right after my workout I drink a 50g protein shake and 15 minutes after that I have 100–150g of carbs via dextrose powder (I eat Twinkies, cookies, donuts,...)
9: One hour after my workout I will have my big solid meal, (whatever I want as long as it has a good amount of protein).
10: By this time I have consumed 100g of protein via shake and 40–60ish grams of protein via solid meal (depending on meal).
This is critical for your next workout, how you refuel after this workout will determine available energy for your next workout. Then, your post-workout fuel protein and carbs will mimic what you had before your workout. You should avoid fructose, that will prevent post exercise fat burning.
Post workout meal should be a plant-based (but not soy) protein powder mixed with low sugar fruit (berries or cherries are perfect) and unsweetened coconut milk.
Im 17 i workout 5 times a week im now trying to shred for summer. Belly fat is my biggest problem lol.
It dropped to 120 and stayed there for several hours before very slowly coming down to 100, it was at 95 five hours after workout. Every time I would stand up or move, it would shoot back up to 110-120 and feel like it was pounding out of my chest. This pounding usually happens when I stand up from a sitting position but settles down after a few seconds, but this was different.
I had no other symptoms aside from pretty bad anxiety upon realization it wasn't coming down.
I was wondering if you have and suggestions on what I should do or eat and stuff. Like is there a workout plan that i can follow cause i still go to school and i also have a job.
Would any one like to join me? I'm about 165lbs, a bit short, I workout regularity, I'm doing some home improvements, and I am busy with my family.
The highest BG registered was 121 which was an hour after eating dinner (which included a sweet potato) and an hour after that it was 97. I tested 2 hours after dinner tonight which was low carb (no sweet potato), and it was 83. (I used the control solution before using the meter and it was in the correct range so I assume it's accurate).
Hi,
You are already doing the lifestyle measures to manage diabetes with low carb eating and exercise. If you want to step it up a notch diet-wise, you could look into ketogenic diet, which can further normalize blood sugars for some.
Changing your exercise time (maybe late afternoon / evening, if you typically exercise in the morning) may be worth a try. Other possibilities:
- a small late night snack (with protein and fat) may help bring down your fasting numbers; this works for some.
Belly fat is mainly dependent on a healthy diet. Many people get caught up with fat/carb content but it is even more important to focus on sodium/sugar content. Your body requires a healthy amount of all of these but high intake of sugar and sodium will cause you to retain more water weight obviously counteracting your desire for stomach definition. Isolating muscle groups during weight training 4-5 times a weeks is actually far more effective than whole body training 3 times per week.
stop taking all the ******** i have been in the gym 40 years and never took anything at 57 i still do a workout that none of the young guys on the **** can keep up with.
i am 32, 5ft., 117lb, i used to weigh 126. I'm trying to lose my stomach fat. How can i lose fat and not weight? I'm happy with my legs and arms but just not my stomach. I'm doing workout for my abs but my fat is still there. I'm on a no carb, no sugar diet. It did help me lose weight but not the fat on my stomach. Any suggestions?
I wanted to know of anyone goes through this as well. After every workout I spot. Sometimes I get cramps. Most of the time I don't. I hate the spotting but have learned to see it as normal. Is it normal? I'm 22. I would say I'm in good health. I used to jog 4 miles daily. 2 or 4 miles I spot anyway.
Does this happen to anyone else?
However, I do have "pre diabetes" which I have had for over 10 years, so nothing new here. My A1C was 5.3. My numbers ever 1/2 hour were a little lower than what my monitor read. So, maybe it's my monitor? I don' tknow. But I"m putting it away for a while and not thinking about it LOL! So, that's that. So, what I still and only have is "neuropathy in my feet".
Oh sorry when i said the workouts they give here i was thinking i was on my other app lol, i have an app called workout trainer, its free and gives u workouts specific to ur goals, u should check it out
Do you do Cardio before or after your workout? What time do you workout and do cardio? Do you do cardio on an empty stomach First thing in the morning to attack fat storage? There is so many things that you could be doing wrong and franly haven't provided the proper information for someone to give you the proper advice!! If you could be a little more specific maybe I could help you reach your fitness goals!
