It’s crazy to me that some [apparently most] people can go to the weightroom so soon after eating. I need at least 1.5 hours, but usually wait at least 2. Any sooner and I feel bloated and worthless.[/quote]
Yeah man same. I train after breakfast and for this reason I have a pretty small one or else I feel like shit.
8 egg whites cooked in pam spray + a couple pieces of fruit.
thnx for the help guys. big help thinking of whey/oats shake should do the trick. 
Im 5’9 about 15% bodyfat (caliper test) and weigh 190lbs. I want to get down to 6-7% bodyfat.
im training for mma. wana get down to weight so i can finally compete. im looking to compete at 155lbs. i figure im going to walk around at 170-180.
im doing 170-200g protein. 170g carbs. and about 45g fat.
protein from whey 3 shakes (1-1.5scoop) chicken, salmon, tuna, turkey. cottage cheese
carbs from oatmeal, post workout gatorade G2, fruit and veggies. yogurt.
pre-workout 40g carbs post is 60g carbs from gatorade. next 2 meals split the final 70g carbs.
fats FA3, Flameout, natty pb, mixed nuts
what you think?
btw when i train be it my strength sessions. boxing, wrestling, sprints. i have good energy finishing my workouts. im just looking for advise on my carb placement. my protein intake. and fats also. im pretty anal and want it all perfect
I’d bump up your protein to 1.25g/lb of bodyweight, your calories seem low. How did you come up with those numbers?
i hate oats…gives me zero energy…
i prefer grits, white rice, potatoes…
im finding 200/300g of sweet potato with 200g of chicken to be fuelling but not filling recently

Probably because there’s no fat in there (if were talking about breasts).
I eat ~200g sweet potato and 8oz chicken often during contest prep with green veggies.
There’s a video of Tate and crew pigging out on pancakes and stuff at a diner. He says they’ll go to the gym in about 15 minutes. I have no clue how anyone can do that; I’d be passing out in the power rack with that much carbs in me.
I’m like that other poster: I don’t like to have much food in my stomach when lifting.
Off-topic: Does anyone get severe acid reflux after lifting?

Wow that’s a lot. I’d probably end up dumping it all over the floor and just rolling around in it. and then i’d still be hungry.

Yeah, it is a lot.
I’m all about the value!
I cut out the carb powders during the summer while I was trimming some fat and look what happened. Hard as rock now!

You could probably still down it if you chew it up real well

I was actually considering trying to break it down in the food processor. But it’s pretty hard I can barely break it apart with my hands, betting it will destroy my food processor.
Question about the oat/whey shakes…raw or cooked? My only option would be raw, so you have that pre and another shake post?
