Fitness – all-the-year-round engagement, isn’t so? So let’s understand, howit is necessary to eat in a cold season to continue to grow thin, without getting traditional “winter” kilograms.
Physical activity and eutrophy – indispensable conditions for finding of a harmonious figure. But how correctly to combine them, what to eat before training and especially after it? It is a normal question for any growing thin gourmet, with pleasure engaged in perfection of the figure by means of physical activities. And how to observe all rules when outside the frost cracks, and an organism pulls on high-calorie food?
Invariable rule of any training – «fats burn down in a flame of carbohydrates». Even most fat burning employment (aerobic training – walking, the skating, traditional aerobics) is carried out at first at the expense of carbohydrates (glucose of blood and glycogen, stored in muscles and a liver). After a while, muscles start to receive energy, including from fat – and some time they “work” on carbohydrates and fats. And from 20th minute of training, a muscle function at the expense of fat.
So, during training the organism always should have a certain stock of carbohydrates. Otherwise instead of growing thin the faint from shortage of glucose is rather probable: muscles will take it away, and to other organs will not suffice. Besides, training «on a hungry stomach» always leads to an overeating after training and, accordingly, not to growing thin, and absolutely on the contrary.
Fitness food key rules:
1. 1-1,5 hours prior to training it is necessary to eat densely. A priority – to difficult carbohydrates, which will get to blood gradually, and by that will provide carbohydrate feed during all training. Means, grain bread, macaroni from firm grades, wholly grain porridges, a boiled and baked potato. Meat, fish and the other products consisting in basic from the fiber, will not go well: fiber is very long acquired, and by the time of training digestion process will appear in the heat. So they should be eaten 3-4 hours prior to training or after it. Fruit and vegetables too not the best choice: carbohydrates from them will be acquired too quickly, and cellulose will overload intestines.
2. If for any reasons you had not time to eat for 1-1,5 hours before training, have a bite simple carbohydrates is there can be a white loaf slice, grapes, fruit juice, fruit candy or a zephyr. It is possible to use a sports drink with carbohydrates, sweet tea. They are, of course, dangerous to a figure as are quickly digested. But if will get inside 15-20 minutes prior to training, to be postponed in fat simply will not be in time – from their blood will take away working muscles. However – attention – the portion should be simply microscopic.
3. After training it is necessary to fill partially spent carbohydrates. Otherwise the weariness will not pass before following training. So, low-fat meat, fish, dairy products, vegetables, low-calorie fruit – welcome! And of course you should eat minimum of fat products.
