for both pre and post workout nutrition you should have both protein and also carb.
Either whole food or liquid (shake) is fine.

sweat potatos are excellent source of complex carbs and taste goood
fruits are good before and after to because they have simple carbs so ur body digests them faster and along with complex carbs 30-45 mins after workout.I rep back/neg back(might be on recharge/spread)
aspiring bodybuilder.
If you got any questions shoot me a pm.
You need to breathe bodybuilding you need to eat, sleep, see, bleed bodybuilding you need to be addicted to bodybuilding like an addict if you plan on gaining any actual size

It doesn't matter how fast you eat them; however, it is preferable for them to be digested and metabolized quickly so as to "spike" blood glucose and, inherently, insulin levels.Originally Posted by Work In Progres
Allegedly enhances cellular uptake of nutrients but the rate of ingestion is irrelevant.
