Yeah, not immediately after. The phrase they used is better, "outside of the recovery window". It's all hearsay handwavey stuff anyway until replicated. What I like is that it sort of concurs with the default wisdom of pre scientific/quantified self era paranoia about best practices, which was "don't eat right before exercise". People take this stuff way to seriously IMHO. If you need a scientist to tell you when to eat, you've got bigger problems.
- hombre_fatal 6y agoWell, the problem that exercise supplement marketing has created is that they try to convince you that their products, like pre- and during-exercise drinks, are helping you. Otherwise your default state would have likely stayed at bringing just a water bottle and empty stomach to the gym.
- ehnto 6y agoHaving been in the supplement industry before software, even I ended up confused about what the right approach was. It was clearly awash with psuedoscience, but there are also countless points of anectodal evidence in the community confusing things further. I no longer take supplements, but creatine and whey protein are the two mainstays in the community. Pure and plain, and with lots of old and new studies backing them up.
