I’m going to share a couple little
known post-workout secrets to help you grow even faster.
Here's a HUGE mistake I see most bodybuilders making.
They don’t take advantage of the most important
"window of opportunity" to build muscle
mass - the post workout meal.
You've probably heard the importance of taking a
post-workout meal before. Many "experts"say
that as long as you take a meal containing carbohydrates
and protein within 90 minutes after your workout you'll
be using this "window of opportunity" for
muscle growth.
Why would you wait so long for the most critical
time of your recovery and muscle growth?
Cortisol is rapidly rising right after the workout
and if you don't do something about it... it's going
to eat away at your muscle gains.
To stop cortisol from rising here’s what you
need to do:
Immediately after your last set, grab
your bottle of water and down at least 10 to 15 capsules
of Nitrobol.
Take 20 capsules if you’re over 200 pounds.
The Nitrobol will hit your bloodstream within 8 to
12 minutes and will be rushed to the areas pumped
with blood you trained. This will contribute to faster
recovery which means faster size and strength gains.
About 10 to 15 minutes after the Nitrobol
you should drink your post-workout shake. This shake
should contain high glycemic carbohydrates and protein.
Why high glycemic carbs? Actually there are two reasons:
The first is scientists have figured out insulin
and cortisol are antagonistic, meaning when your insulin
levels are high, cortisol is driven out of your body.
This tilts your testosterone to cortisol ratio in
favor of testosterone. This is a good thing.
The second reason is this: If you’ve done a
hard workout, your muscles will be depleted of glycogen
because you used it for energy during your workout.
Your muscles are literally screaming for some carbohydrates
right after the workout. They will quickly absorb
the carbs so it’s important to get them into
your body as fast as possible. High glycemic carbs
do just that... get to your muscles quickly to replenish
glycogen stores.
While your body is in this quick uptake mode, you
can use the insulin release from the high glycemic
carbs to shuttle other anabolic nutrients like Nitrobol
into your muscle cells exactly when it is needed most...
right after your workout.
Here's what I do 10 to 15 minutes after taking the
Nitrobol
for my post-workout drink...
I drink something called "kefir". It's
basically a drink made of yogurt.
I like it because it has some high glycemic carbs
as sweeteners and some good high quality protein.
And even better... since it is fermented that means
it's partially digested. So the protein is quickly
and more easily digested than milk products. I think
it's a great post-workout drink and it comes in some
really delicious flavors.
I find it at every Publix grocery store but you may
have to go to specialty-type health food stores to
find it in your area.
I think a combination of the Nitrobol
taken immediately after your workout, and a half to
full quart of kefir chugged down post workout will
provide all the muscle-building nutrients you need...
at just the right time... to grow as quickly as possible.
All the best,
