This article is aimed at people who want to become bodybuilders in a short period of time and in an efficient way. If you are one of these people, how often do you think about exactly what you are going to eat before exercise? What are you going to eat when you are done exercising?

First of all you have to be careful when you begin your new training regime, because the risk of injuring yourself is higher. And this can make you give up before you start.

Getting to the main question, you should eat two hours before your exercise because this way you are going to have more energy and you are going to be able to lift more weight. It is not necessary to eat a lot, in fact you should eat some carbohydrates, that means pasta, bread or rice. So you mustn’t eat proteins.

Let’s look at the second point now. You may think that you should eat while you are doing exercise, however in this type of exercise it is not necessary, because we eat in order to recharge our energy. Nevertheless in this case we do not exercise long enough to use up all our energy, so it does not make sense. Although it is really important to replenish the water in your body, so you must drink water.

As for the matter of the type of exercise. The general rule is do fewer repetitions such as 10, 8, 6. The last try it must be very hard, because this way you make sure that break all your cells and then when they reconstruct again they will increase their volume.

Turning to the issue of what you eat after you exercise and when. First of all, during the first 20 minutes, you shouldn’t eat. You should eat between 20-60 minutes after doing exercise, because at this time is when muscles are able to accept more proteins and carbohydrates. So you should eat food that contains proteins and carbohydrates.
