Hey everyone, long time reader, first time poster. This is a newbie question but it’s about Surge:
I am doing Starting Strength with a friend, and he wants to do these accessory exercises along with the workout. He got the extra stuff from the Something Awful forums. I hear they are real bodybuilding experts over there.
My question is about the timing of the surge Example:
As you can see, I have been taking a full serving of Surge after the heavy lifting, and then doing the other things too. Is there a reason why I shouldn’t do this? Should I just wait? By the time we finish the rest of the workout it’s already been an hour and a half since we entered the gym, and I’m afraid that it’s gonna be too late for the Surge at that point.
Any problem with a full serving of Surge 3/4ths into a workout and then a big meal an hour or two later?
You can certainly try adding it in during your workout, but I really don’t think it’s going to have an effect on results/recovery. You should be covered so long as you ingest some form of protein/carbs before and after you lift.
My recommendation would be sip the Surge during your workout start say about 20 - 30 minutes in but only drink half of it over the workout (or have 2 separate sports bottles) and drink the other half at the end.
that way your getting energy and protein throughout and a larger dose to finish.
So the consensus is that it’s probably okay to do some sit ups and hyper extensions after some Surge, though I could maybe break it into two servings with no detriment?
