I lift heavy at 3 PM and would like to do cardio at 9 PM on a few lifting days, just to even the load out over the week. Lifting is on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.
I am doing the g-flux with the goal of losing fat and maintaining or gaining muscle.
What would be the optimal meal arrangement
for days with lifting and cardio?
P+C peri workout (before,during after) as per intake needs. Then P+F all other times. Maybe P+C morning as well. Find what works best for you. Your goals, needs.
Just my opinion, if you awaken let’s say at 7 am, your metabolism should still be pretty fast and should slow down around 2 pm (the optimal time to switch to P+F) but than you lift and do cardio a few hours later… well, let me just say that I don’t see any real place to put those P+F meals in the day. Unless you want to “drop” the nutrient partioning thing and just eat clean P+C+F meals.
