Mystery solved eats or not eats before exercise?

Eating before Workout for Maximum Results in 2013


We all do exercise in our life get fit but we all have no idea that what to eat before workout? In this blog you will find some answers for this common question.
Some researcher says that, if you work out in the morning on an empty stomach our body is going to bring out glycogen stored in the liver and take it to muscle to be broken down into glucose. Second, exercising in the morning with a piece of fruit and 1 cup of milk,

your muscles are going to retrieve glucose that is been there in the blood stream for energy. So by this being said, there is less effort for the muscles to uptake energy for your work out. Consequently, glycogen will only leave the liver when low or no glucose flows in the blood. So stored glycogen and fat will always be in their reservoirs until later in the work out or even not leave their storage places (liver and adipose tissue) at all.
 

Everyone knows that athletes must plan and time their meals and snacks very carefully to reach their performance goals. You try to squeeze in 30-60 minutes of exercise most days of the week. Do you have to be careful about what you eat before and after your workouts, too?
If you’re eating a healthy diet and getting enough calories to support your activity level, you can probably rely on your own appetite, energy levels, and experience to tell you whether you need to eat anything before or after exercise and what it should be. The basic rule here is: Find out what works best for you, and do that.
There are some advantages to knowing how your body works and what it needs to perform at its best. The bottom line for healthy weight loss and fitness sounds simple: You have to eat fewer calories than you use up—but not fewer than your body needs to function at its best.
The size, timing, and content of your pre- and post-exercise meals and snacks can play an important role in your energy levels during your workout, how well your body recovers and rebuilds after your workout, and whether the calories you eat will be used as fuel or stored as fat. Here’s what you need to eat and drink to get the results you want!

Your Pre-Exercise Fluid Needs

Being well-hydrated will make your exercise easier and more effective. Try to drink 16-20 ounces of water during the 1-2 hours before starting your workout.
 

Your Pre-Exercise Meal or Snack

News flash: Most of the fuel you use during exercise doesn’t come from the food you’ve recently eaten! It actually comes from the carbohydrates (called “glycogen”) and fat that’s stored in your muscles, liver, and fat cells. That’s enough to fuel 1-2 hours of very intense exercise or 3-4 hours of moderate intensity exercise.
This means that if your overall diet is adequate to keep your fuel tanks topped off, you may not need to eat anything before you work out. So, if eating before exercise upsets your stomach or you like to exercise first thing in the morning or at a time when eating first isn’t convenient, don’t feel like eating first is a must.

Some people do have a hard time exercising without eating first, especially if it’s been a long time since their last meal or snack. These individuals often are more sensitive to changes in their blood sugar levels, which fall during the first 15-20 minutes of workout. That drop in blood sugar can cause tiredness, mild dizziness, or even faintness—especially if your blood sugar was already low, but eating something beforehand can help prevent this. If you have health issues like diabetes or hypoglycemia that can cause low blood sugar, you’ll probably want to eat before your workout. If you get very hungry during a workout (and it interferes with your energy levels or focus), or become so ravenous after an exercise session that you end up overeating, try eating before you hit the gym to avoid these problems.
Let us see what to do if you are doing moderate exercise. For this case you will do well in your routine with pre-exercise snack. You can do this in two ways:
1. Eat a nutritionally balanced meal 1-2 hours before your exercise.
This is the best option for many people. The larger the meal, and the more fat and protein it contains, the longer you may need to wait before exercising. Ideally, try to eat enough calories to equal about half the calories you expect to burn during your upcoming workout. So if you burn about 600 calories during your workout, aim for at least 300 calories during this meal — or a little more if your exercise is “high intensity” (over 75% of your maximum heart rate). At least 50-60% of these calories should come from carbohydrates, which should keep your blood sugar and energy levels fairly stable during your exercise session. Include some protein to help prevent the breakdown of muscle for fuel and give your muscles a head start on recovery after exercise. Some good food choices and combinations for this kind of meal include:
Whole grain crackers with nut butter or cheese
Whole grain fig (or fruit) Newton cookies
Milk (especially chocolate milk)
Tomato or vegetable juice
Yogurt smoothie (with added protein powder, if desired)
Most protein/energy bars
Fruit and yogurt
Nuts
Oatmeal
Cereals (with more than 3 grams of fiber) and milk
Trail mix with nuts and dried fruit
Hummus and raw veggies
Hard boiled eggs (or egg whites)
Cottage cheese and fruit
Half a peanut butter or turkey/chicken sandwich on whole grain bread

 

2. Eat a small (100- to 200-calorie) snack about 30 minutes before you work out

 This snack should include fast-digesting (high glycemic index) carbohydrates and very little fat (which digests slowly), so that you digest the meal quickly and the fuel is available during your exercise session. Here are some ideas:
Fruit juice
Fruit smoothie
Energy bars (look for 3-5 grams of protein, at least 15 grams of carbs, and very little fat)
High-glycemic fruits like pineapple, apricots, banana, mango, and watermelon
Sports drinks
Pretzels or bagels (but not whole grain varieties, which digest slowly)
As a moderate exerciser, you have a lot of flexibility when it comes to timing your meals and choosing your foods. The most important things are getting to know your body and how it responds to exercise, so that you can give it what it needs to perform at its best. Eating the right foods at the right times before you work out is essential to keeping your energy up, your workout performance high, and your body in fat-burning mode.

Warning:
If you are doing high intensity training or running, you may want to avoid milk right before a workout. When exercise stomach acid hits milk, it can cause an upset stomach. People have been known to throw up from exercising too soon after drinking milk

Hidden Tricks for Enjoying vacation while saving big money in 2013

Enjoy vacation while saving money 2013


Saving money starts with some common sense. Here are some nice tips for enjoying vacation while saving big dollars…

 

Avoid traveling on busy days


Most people fly the day before a holiday and the day or two after a holiday. For example, many people fly on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and return on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. If you can leave on a Tuesday and return on a Friday, Saturday or Monday, you may find a cheaper flight.

 

Search for Package Deals and Discounts


Disney offers a wide range of discounts that can save you money if you qualify. You can generally save between 10 percent and 20 percent on resort hotels with a AAA discount, according to Mousesavers.com

Buy the tickets at least two weeks in advance to find better deals


The best time to buy cheap, domestic flight tickets is three weeks before the plane leaves. The best rates for international flights can be found about 30 days in advance of the flight's departure.

 

Stay flexible when setting dates for travel


 When using sites like Travelocity, Kayak or Orbitz to find a cheap flight, select the "Flexible Dates" box, which lets you find the dates that have the cheapest flights.

 

Try House Swap


If you have time before your vacation, look into saving money by swapping your home for someone else's. A number of travel sites list "house swaps," but you can also place an ad in the paper of the place you'd like to go and ask if there is anyone who wants to go where you live. Except for a security deposit on the part of both "swappers," there is no accommodation fee.

 

Join Priority Clubs

 

Join hotel group "priority" or "frequency" clubs well in advance of your planned vacation. The club might have credit card rewards or you may be able to earn a free night after staying for three or four. Look at the hotels you like in the place you wish to go and start building loyalty credit with them.


Cook for Yourself Most of the time and save a lot of money


A box of cereal and gallon of milk in the hotel will be a lot cheaper for breakfast than everyone sitting down in the hotel restaurant. It's fun to try out restaurants at your destination, but by eating light meals at the hotel, you can splurge on restaurant meals a few times while you're away.


Bring or buy your own snacks


When walking around through tourist destinations, especially with children, it's a good idea to purchase snacks at a regular grocery store ahead of time. Having a backpack with some fruit, granola bars and crackers is a cheaper and healthier alternative to purchasing snacks at every vendor cart along the way.

Plan your daily budget ahead of time


If you only have a certain amount of money to spend, plan out your activities for each day and allot a certain amount of cash for that day -- and then only bring that amount. Once you're out of cash, it's time to head back to the hotel for a swim in the pool and a game of snake and ladder.

 

Obtain a frequent-flier credit card


Use it for flights and other purchases. This will help build up miles that will allow you to obtain free flights

Save more by paying more


That luxury room with concierge service might seem really pricey, but it may also come with access to special events, free breakfast and lunch, unlimited snacks and other amenities you couldn't have gotten if you paid for just a regular room.
