Hi everybody, I was wondering if, after doing a 15 min HIIT session I need to consume a meal directly afterwards or if I can wait an hour or two. By the way I am trying to bulk.

^^^ exactly. treat post-HIIT/cardio nutrition just like post-lifting nutrition. have a meal with a 2:1-4:1 carb to protein ratio. example, 100g of carbs from oats and 50g of protein from whey.

why bother, just have carbs, those proteins are only going to be converted to glucose via gluconeogenisis anywayOriginally Posted by dp13368
