Most people who perform HIIT don't support their workout with the proper nutrition. Today we clear up the fog surrounding what you should do with your diet and supplements to make the most of high intensity interval training.
Today we will clear up a few of the myths for you and help you enhance your workouts.
One of the most common myths in the gym is training on an empty stomach. When it comes to fat loss this is actually yesterday's advice. In the last ten years there have been countless scientific studies which have shown that you can gain far more from a workout if you get the right nutrients into your body before you hit the gym.
The majority of gym users discovered high intensity interval training in the last ten years but this technique has been used in sports for over twenty years, so research into the nutritional aspect is anything but sparse. The problem is, however, most people short change themselves by not taking any time out to discover what they need to change with their diet to make the most of this new way of performing cardio for fat loss.
The majority of individuals who utilize a high intensity cardio approach are looking for fat loss results rather than athletic performance so that is the area we will focus on today. There are two key things you can do to enhance your fat loss workout considerably:
* Studies show that trainers who consume 20 grams of whey protein around 20 miuntes before a high intensity interval workout were able to continue burning calories at a far higher rate than those who went in on an empty stomach. Furthermore, this extra calorie burning lasted a massive 24 hours.
* Try adding some essential amino acids to your supplement routine and consuming them before your cardio workout to maximize results. EAA's are proven to help retain muscle mass while burning fat.
Most people who are in the habit of training on an empty stomach wait until after their workout before consuming protein, amino acids or any other supplements they might be taking. Again, this is yesterday's advice.
Essential amino acids work before of after a workout, they are a no nonsense supplement that are simply proven to help build lean muscle. However, there have been a number of studies performed which indicate when directly compared with pre-workout and post-workout consumption there is only one winner. One particular piece of research showed a 24% increase in the uptake of the supplement by the muscles, all for something as simple as taking it before your gym session instead of after.
And that's it. Pretty simple stuff in the end, right? By ensuring your body has enough essential amino acids and a nice serving of whey protein around 20 minutes before you do your next HIIT session you will greatly improve your results.
Today we will clear up a few of the myths for you and help you enhance your workouts.
