I saw a video of a bodybuilder chick and one of the things she ate was cabbage. Is there a reason a bodybuilder would eat cabbage?

The only reason it'd be good for bodybuilding is the same reason for every vegetable: the nutrients from it and it's better than eating junk.
Oh and if you dig a good bratwurst with some sauerkraut!Originally Posted by desslok

Cabbage has carbs. If you use cabbage, Let me clear some things up.
In the fitness community there is a common misconception that nutrient timing is not of importance. This includes the timing intake of CHO and peptides, AA particularly EAA's mainly leucine. Now Slin / IGF 1 secretion plays it's roll in anabolism, aiding in the absorption of AA's which improves MPS when correlated with anaerobic activity when in a hyper caloric surplus. Insulin and the anabolic actions attributed to insulin are primarily driven by reducing protein breakdown as opposed to increasing muscle protein synthesis as well which indicates reduced atrophy.
With a structured nutrient program implemented reflecting the needs of these biomarkers my team can assist you with achieving optimal results leading to greater MPS resulting is superior myofibrillar hypertrophy and fat oxidation simultaneously.
