fatigue after the gym

digga

hi guys ,

after i train i sometimes feel tired slightly , not all the time but it will stay with me for the rest of the day , i know for a fact that im not over training, which leads me to believe its diet obviously . now i like to think that my diet is fine , which for protien it certainly is but what are the best foods to replenish your energy reserves and how much , i will say that my protein shake has L glutimine in which is supposed to help you recover , and would like to keep this natural if i can but would consider taking another suppliment . im also on my bulking cycle but very cautious about a high carb suppliment to aid me , cheers dudes

Did you have enough sleep and rest the previous evening? Otherwise, your diet looks fine. Cheers

dude.. if i didnt feel tired after training id be concerned!

this is one of the reasons why ive never got how people can train in the AM - after a decent session im fit for nothing more than the sofa lol.

Get a proper post workout shake like Build & Recover, it has HMB, kre-alkalyn, carbs, vitamins, minerals and protein in it in the correct ratios to aid recovery.

People forget that they burn the creatine out the muscles during training, it is the energy source the body uses during anaerobic training, you can drink as many carbs as you wont and they will not replenish creatine reserves. It may be this is what is making you feel lifeless, creatine is used during every muscular contraction from the blink of an eye to a squat.
