Default What foods are good to eat after exercising? - 06-29-2009, 01:55 PM

I'm looking to lose some weight this summer. I was just wondering what kinds of foods I should eat after running, to make sure that I'm not just gaining the weight back. I know that it's good to eat protein after exercising, but what foods have protein or other good things in them? Has anyone had any luck with certain foods? ------

Hi

Thanks for sharing this ]
Research has shown that eating 100-200 grams of carbohydrate within two hours of endurance exercise is essential to building adequate glycogen stores for continued training. Waiting longer than two hours to eat results in 50 percent less glycogen stored in the muscle. The reason for this is that carbohydrate consumption stimulates insulin production, which aids the production of muscle glycogen. However, the effect of carbohydrate on glycogen storage reaches a plateau.

Thanks
Have a nice time ahead

Eating after exercise is important as well. Your muscles need the raw materials to recuperate after your work out. A light meal or snack within 2 hours after exercise is perfect. The actual composition of the post-workout meal is a matter of some debatefor optimal glycogen replacement, most people recommend carbohydrates, but a certain amount of protein is needed for muscle repair and growth.

Hi

  1. Protein shakes: Protein is a good way to build muscle. Working out, especially lifting weights, can wear down muscle tissue. Protein helps maintain, repair, and rebuild muscle. If you cannot find a good protein shake, eat a protein bar.
  2. Carbohydrates: Good carbs are great for post-workouts. Rice and whole grains replenish your muscles. Turkey or tuna sandwiches are good choices of foods to eat after working out. Add whole grain spaghetti or wheat bread to your 5 best foods.
  3. Meat: The protein in meat is just as good as protein drinks when it comes to post-exercise foods. Do not go out and eat a Porterhouse steak or whole chicken, but eat grilled fish or grilled chicken. Beef stir-fry and tofu stir-fry with rice noodles make great foods to eat after working out. Be sure to eat small portions.
  4. Fruits and vegetables: Fresh fruit and vegetables are excellent. Apples, bananas, grapes, salad with eggs, or fruit salad make for good, healthy post-work out snacks. However, eating a salad big enough for nine people, loaded with high calorie ranch dressing is not good either. Eat in moderation.
  5. Fruit Smoothies: Mix your favorite fruits together in a blender with either yogurt or skim milk for a delicious way to replenish your body. Fruit has natural sugar. Granola is good for adding protein but it can be very fattening. Your body needs to burn off what is put in it quickly. Fruit smoothies are light and refreshing.
Thanks
