Nutrition Tip: Know Your Carbs

KNOW YOUR CARBS!
Carbohydrates are categorized by the amount of time it takes for the body to process them. There are two main categories: fast-digesting and slow-digesting.

(1) Fast-Digesting Carbohydrates:

WHEN TO EAT 'EM: 
You should consume fast-digesting carbohydrates with your post-workout meal. Because your muscle glycogen stores have been depleted during the course of your workout, it is important to get in these types of carbs to speed up the recovery process!

EXAMPLES:
white rice, flour tortillas

(2) Slow-Digesting Carbohydrates:

WHEN TO EAT 'EM:
Slow-digesting carbohydrates should be consumed with any meal that is not your post-workout meal, in most cases. Slow-digesting carbs are generally fibrous, hearty, foods from which energy can be extracted over a relatively long amount of time, keeping you full longer!

EXAMPLES:
whole wheat bread, brown rice, sweet potato, oats

Exercise Tip: Emphasize Mind-Muscle Connection

"I can take a 20lb dumbbell and turn it into a 60lb dumbbell."
-Doug McKinney


Exercise Tip


EMPHASIZE MIND-MUSCLE CONNECTION FOR TONING AND GROWTH

Results come from HOW you lift the weight, not the AMOUNT of weight you lift. Emphasize the stimulus of the muscle when performing an exercise, don't just move the weight.
