Paleo Diet/ Zone Post-Workout Nutrition - What do you do?

Ross Hunt · 03-22-2004, 07:39 AM

All,

Do those of you who follow Paleo/Zone diets stick to those diets for your post-workout meals, or do you deviate from them?
I follow Paleo/Zone principles for my other four meals - equal parts lean protein and healthy fat with some low-GI vegetable carbs - but I eat a high-GI post-workout meal for recovery. Can you cut high-GI carbs from your post-workout meal without hampering recovery?

Thanks,

Ross Hunt

J.D.,

Thanks; those are quality threads. I guess NHE goes on the to-read list.

Funny that you mentioned NHE Ross. After having read it, it seems odd that I would ask these questions just 5 months ago. Do buy it. Robb almost forcefed it to me, and I must say, apart from the cheesy photos and remarks by Faigin sometimes, it is a goldmine! (I especially liked the part with the words of wisdom in the beginning of each chapters where he often quotes "Rob Faigin")LOL!

:biggrin:

DOn't let that discourage you though. It IS a great book.
