fruit is perfectly fine. in fact, it’s what makes ups the majority of my clients carb sources when they are dieting…

but yea – getting your weight to budge is just going to be a matter of eating more anyway. good luck

Late to the party on this article….

I am clearly not getting enough carbs post workout which is the best news I have had in a long time. Might explain why I cant get my weight to move upwards.

Do you have any issue with fruit as part of the carb intake PWO? I am currently having 125g of brown rice, chilli and cottage cheese with a smoothie (on the side of course!) made up of apple juice, mixed frozen berries, a banana and 2 scoops of Whey. I know you are a fan of Banana’s but wondered what you made of a a fruit smoothie as a source of carbs….?

I am gonna be eating a lot of toast post workout now….. bring on tomorrow!
