Pre workout and post workout supplements



Recommended Posts

Hi guys I know a bunch of you workout I was wondering about workout supplements. I do 40 min on elliptical at 10-10 intervals and 6-6 keeping my pulse between 135-150. The weight machines another 40 min. I do 5-6 days a week and I'm sore.

You may be sore but you are doing amazing.

I have reached goal now I'm working on my fitness goals.

Right now I'm at the gym 5 days a week.

Cardio I mix up (1) I jog on a treadmill for an hour at 6.0 per hour. OR (2) Eliptical for an hour on fat burn I have the resistance maxed at 20.

After cardio I am strength training for an additional hour. My trainer has me on an all over body program. My legs are much stronger than my upper body. I'm increasing weight and can see that I am finally making gains.

I do a Protein drink and liquid L-carnitine before a workout. a after workout recovery Protein Drink.

Here is some information on things to eat before and after work outs. (some of the info might not fit your bariatic plan right now)

@@jenn1 thank you that article has great ideas! I love to hear your fitness goal workout. Personal trainers are so expensive! I did three sessions. And will do it again as a reward for reaching my next goal weight

I understand the expense of gyms and trainers. The thought of not using my membership and still having to pay my monthly due's kills me. I cant take throwing money away. I guess its one way to keep me on track.

There are other options out there that cost nothing. I'm still amazed at what I can find online.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
