About Meal Timing

Meal timing plays a crucial role in optimizing performance, recovery, and body composition. When you eat can be just as important as what you eat, especially around workouts.

Key Principles of Meal Timing

  • Pre-Workout Nutrition: Fuel 1-3 hours before exercise
  • Post-Workout Nutrition: Recover within 30-60 minutes after exercise
  • Protein Timing: Distribute protein evenly throughout the day
  • Carb Timing: Time carbs around workouts for optimal performance
  • Meal Frequency: Eat every 3-4 hours to maintain energy

Pre-Workout Guidelines

  • Eat 2-3 hours before intense exercise
  • Focus on easily digestible carbs
  • Include moderate protein (10-20g)
  • Limit fat and fiber to prevent digestive issues
  • Hydrate well before exercise

Post-Workout Guidelines

  • Consume protein and carbs within 30-60 minutes
  • Aim for 20-40g protein for muscle synthesis
  • Include carbs to replenish glycogen
  • Ratio 3:1 or 4:1 carbs:protein for endurance
  • Continue hydration and electrolyte replacement

Goal-Specific Timing

  • Muscle Gain: Higher protein, carbs around workouts
  • Fat Loss: Time carbs around workouts, protein throughout
  • Endurance: Carb loading before, recovery after
  • Strength: Protein focus, strategic carb timing
