Good foods to eat post-workout...

[HabitualChiller]

Any suggestions? I want to build muscle btw..

Protein shake works for me. Maybe some carbs on top

I just had a baked sweet potato with cinnamon, nutmeg and peanut butter.

That + a shake has had me full for the last three hours.

Whole wheat toast with honey and peanut butter, a banana, and chocolate milk.

 

[GunRanger]

Whole wheat wraps with any kind of chicken/fish/turkey. You want protein and carbs to recover

I used to do just protein shakes post workout until i got some good advice from saggi. Dude told me to eat after work out because the insulin released to your muscles is instant and helps faster with recovery(which i 100% believe since im never sore after eating). So my typcial post workout meal is my breakfast which is:


1 cup of egg whites topped with 2tbsp of organic ketchup

1 scoop of protein poweder mixed with water

One medium organic banana

2 slices of turkey bacon



Sometimes i might add in a cup of berries when i have it on hand but for the most part that is my typical breakfast/post workout meal

Don't over think it. As long as it fits your overall goals it doesn't matter too much

 

[Izanami]

Usually a protein shake

When I was working 3-11pm. I would eat egg hits, toast wheat and light cheese.

More energy equals bigger lifts and more gains. When I dirty bulked my lifts went up and my recovery went up faster but the drawback is you will look more bloated, it takes longer to get off and may not be the best thing to do if you have food anxiety.

But if you do it and be discpline on the cut whew you will reap.

All the other suggestions are good here very healthy options.

Best to be disciplined from jump street and never have that problem to begin with. Take it from a breh who overbulked
