That pre workout meal is pretty much my go to but without the nut butters. I have a shot of extra virgin cold pressed olive oil in the afternoon though. I find I can batter cardio without much food in me but, if I try to lift on empty, it's absolutely grim
Yeah getting something sweet into the oats better for optimal blood sugar but depends on preference. Sometimes the fats help keep you going into the depths of your workout whereas the sugars give you the height at the start.
@@Longevitystrengthcoachaye man, I have a shake late morning that consists of avocado, protein, banana or blueberries and spinach, sometimes I add a really dark cabbage as well if morrisons have it in. Oats around 2/half 2ish as I finish work at half 3, get ready and walk the mile and a half to the gym. I'm raring to go as soon as I get there
I can agree the rationale is good for sustained training and ongoing eat train rest routine. But what happens when as you say you go on a mission and you body is deprived of the inflow of these cabs and sugars you have there. You will feel dizzy in the forest after one day and sit down to rest? Your body will not be used to being on empty stomach and simply cry through your eyes. I dare to say - yes this is good for whwn you train and go back to the barracks, but when you get dropped for 5 days no food you will suffer due to this diet.
Thank you for raising an interesting point. This is a common mis conception. This idea would have elite soldiers eating rations all year round so they are better conditioned to perform in extreme environments eating similar foods. This massively limits your potential to maximise your growth when you have control of all the variables
By that rationale you would not drink proper amounts of water either, as you would struggle if suddenly deprived of water ? In reality, all people struggle on low water or lo carb intake. Obviously military personnel would train on being deprived of food, and on functioning with too little sleep/food or water, but this cannot be your usual day, then you get broken down by it.
Are people really confused about this? It’s a given you won’t have access to any of this on a mission typically but that doesn’t mean don’t ever eat optimally Your body will adapt to any situation you put it through. Hunger comes and goes in waves. And through evolution sometimes we would go weeks without food. But you don’t need to live everyday like that…
@@AswollAlpaca apparently so. Back when I was fresh into my unit I remember one of the lads having this opinion. 'Greeny you drink too much water, when you are in the jungle you are going to crumble' No
Thats a lot of ingredients but overall i see where all the macros are and theres a great mix of everything. Good video. I try to eat like this but its a bit tedius and nowadays also expensive. Also I started working out 6 days a week and eat more meat but not enough veggies and fruit. I do get a banana, yogurt, eggs, nuts and healthy fats from cheese and olive oil but i dont like carbs they fill me up too much. Im trying to up my carbs now though. Feeding ourselves is a full time job 😂
This takes about 1 hour to cook everything for 2 days. Cooking meals individually always takes way longer. The best thing anyone can do is be fully prepared cause life will always throw a curve ball
@@Longevitystrengthcoach Yes stay low carb if you dont want to perform, but are afraid of gaining weight because of all the fat you are already eating on your lo carb diet 🙂
@@S9999Frank Hey frank. You would be surprised just how well your body copes with low carb if done properly. Most people prefer the carbs around training sessions though
Low carb is much better for high performance. You don't need any carbs for a good workout - they actually make you tired. I would suggest you optimize your research with reading stuff from Wolfgang Unsöld before you just repeat the false information we already have so much of.
Not all carbs make you tired and all carbs don't make you tired all the time.. Why not read up all the research before parroting one person's findings and telling successful coaches what they should be doing. Carbs are absolutely fine
@@K_j_M They are fine but should be in the right dosage and at the right time (of course not before a workout). And a "successful coach" is usually someone who has no clue about the specifics of insulin sensitivity and so on ;)
@@iz7347so, you were oringally no carbs now, you're saying they're OK but timed right and at the right dosage...? Exactly what the video suggests? And how are you going to tell me, or anyone else, that they shouldn't eat carbs before a workout? Are you my gut microbiome? My tapeworm? FOH mate with nonsense. There's research that supports what your man says, and there's research to support the low carb approach. What there also is, is research to say that people who randomly appear on videos and start speaking in absolute after reading a book and applying that knowledge globally... As if that's the only research that matters now, are not to be listened to. You have a lot to learn pal. Put the phone down
Check out what really elite performers like tour de france cyclists consume. Carbs carbs and more carbs, the amount consumed has been almost doubled in recent years, as it helps performance so much. Even saying something as stupid as you don't need carbs for performance, should give a direct ban from the internet :-)

Points taken. I'm cracking on with this. Cheers.
Let me know how you get on!!

No
this proliferation of the word "athlete" got way out of hand. no, 99.9% of ppl watching aren't "f'in athletes"!
If you are prioritising your physical development, then you should consider yourself an athlete. ❤️

You don't need veggies and fruits. Just as much as you want and don't listen to this guy, stay low carb ;)))
@@iz7347Jesus man... Give it up ffs 😂

NO mayonnaise?
Absolutely not 🤣

Low carb works too and i am doing a video on why soon.
