FT Questions....

[Scott Stevenson]

Thanks for reply mate how would it be if I dropped down to teir 1 and keep the split I got I can do teir 1 in 20-45 mins I only have that time because the time gym opens to when I have to get on the road for work. It’s only for two months I’ll be back to nomral then.

Sounds good to me. (Only you can answer how it would be. I personally wouldn't have near enough time to get through a workout safely...)

Also I have my intra as first meal stat sipping 15 mins before finish at the end of my session by the time I get to work I willl have to start immediately leaving no time for a meal. So should I eat a meal as I drive or wait till my break which is 3 hours later ?

Intra shake is
- 20g eaa
10g bcaa
100g maltdextrin

Thanks for advice Scott

Sure, man.

I'd personally probably just have another shake (with added fiber as psyllium husk or benefiber, perhaps if too much protein / carb powder causes GI upset). I'm not going to suggest you try to eat a meal while you're driving... , but bagel or a protein bar can be easily nibbled at if you're spending a good amount of time sitting at traffic lights / in standstill bumper-to-bumper traffic.

BTW, I'd have a complete protein source with your intra (WPI or Whey hydrosylate) rather than an EAA blend. (BCAA's are just three of the EAA's. You'll want to provide a full complement of amino acids when it's your first meal as you'll be in negative protein balance and the only source of non-essential AA's would be in scavenging them from elsewhere in your body, which is not idea when you're trying to build up overall protein stores in the form of muscle mass. )
