What To Eat Before A Workout

[yousef1990khan]

he sounds funny

[vlatkostu]

Oh hai! Have you ever tried the Fat Blast Furnace (do a search on google)? Ive heard some unbelivable things about it and my work buddy lost a ton of weight.

[1Chint]

Hey! Have you tried the Fat Blast Furnace (just google it)? Ive heard some unbelivable things about it and my sister lost crazy amounts of stubborn fat.

[ancientpower22]

Thanks :) very helpful

[ancientpower22]

@Evilcyber

evil plz answer this! im working out in the morning, like 45 mins after I wake up.

does this burn muscle? cus 5 minutes before I start my workout I'd swallow my last bit of food :/ im not a fast eater in the morning.. But do I use that food especially the carbohydrates if I just start training after I swallow my food? If not.. the only thing I can think of to get energie the body needs during the workout is fat / muscle :S

[Evilcyber]

@ancientpower22 No, it won't burn muscle. You'd really have to go to extremes for that to happen. What it will most likely do is limit your performance. A bit more time, let's say half an hour or an hour, between breakfast and workout might help.

[BCAAs789]

[soccernatic]

Thumbs up if you want him to say "I'll be back" at the end of his next video... just to hear if he sounds like Arnold :)

[Evilcyber]

@soccernatic Arnold will probably sue me :D

[wilrod34]

im sorry but i disagree!!! if you do your research you will find that if you consume a good amount of protein before a workout is FAR more effective then consuming carbos, this is not opinon this is fact, your muscles need protein so they can build, if you need energy before a workout then have a coffe or a pre workout shake and consume your COMPLEX carbs (ie oatmeal, almonds and fruits) AFTER a workout so that your body has enough enerygy during

the day to repair itself

[M13Hitman]

You da man!

[Singetally]

His accent sounds german mixed with asian xD mostly german though.

[Evilcyber]

@Singetally So far I was told my ancestry is Prussian and French. I better look that up! :D

[liquidmetaltech]

ffs research, write down on pen and paper, or a fucking word document. plan your fucking videos and put something in them.

all i hear is blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

such a shame as i just watched a very well planned vid someone else did before i clicked this one.

[Evilcyber]

@liquidmetaltech 208 likes, 5 dislikes: hm... :)

[frenzic91]

@liquidmetaltech You cannot be serious. He went into great detail to describe what it means to actually have a "pre-workout" meal, ie., the importance of diet not only immediately prior to working out, but rather everything leading up to the workout. If you were looking for a summary, possibly due to a lack of sufficient attention span, maybe you should have taken his advice before he began to "blah blah blah".

[liquidmetaltech]

@frenzic91

"great detail" L.O.L me and my attention span have things to do.......... brb

[liquidmetaltech]

@liquidmetaltech

we're going to try and find something even funnier on youtube.... i wish myself luck on this :D

[ManowarFan1985]

Training is so frigging hard man!, this is why some people turn to the juice, cos you take that stuff at a small dose and aslong as you know what your doing and have done your reaserch you will be getting the gains you should be getting in no time.

[Pureloverlovestuff]

[pi33ups]

back from skool.. how old do u think we are?

[hfsdsdfsdgasdfgaf]

@Tangotom96 Ohh, thats possible too, but gear is so expensive, to me its better to pay for a gym ^^

[hfsdsdfsdgasdfgaf]

@Tangotom96 Yes I know, i lift weights at a small gym in a small town, but the owner of this small gym is a big guy. He also helps me with lifting weights. (when i need it)

[hfsdsdfsdgasdfgaf]

@Tangotom96 My opinion is that it doesn't stunt your growth, i have grown for like a couple centimeters more since I lift weights.

[utubercrew]

thanks for this info, its very well explained.

for everyone hating, shut the f..k up or make a video of your own with a better explanation

[nadeemuzik1]

...you seriously need to stop explainsing sooo much.. just say what you need to eat and why?.. end off.. 2 minit video.. and everyone gets the messege..

[Evilcyber]

@nadeemuzik1 Then I would be like all those telling people "do this, because I say so".

[MrReview9]

@Evilcyber Don't listen to haters, I'm studying nutrition and liked your video and the way you explain things in a convenient and simple way.

[Evilcyber]

@MrReview9 Thanks man! :)

[zaheerchughatta]

Thanks buddy... Very useful information in simple language...!!!

[Evilcyber]

@zaheerchughatta Thanks man! Glad it helped you!

[hfsdsdfsdgasdfgaf]

@Evilcyber Hi, im 14 years old, I lift weights for like 3/5 months now, I eat just like normal food... Just what my mother serves... but i haven't gained too much mass, my incline bench press has gone from 20kg 1 rep max to 55 kg 2 reps... so, strenght is going up, but no mass... O_0 could you help me out?

[hfsdsdfsdgasdfgaf]

@hfsdsdfsdgasdfgaf *EDIT* And i use Bulk Whey Proteine!!!

[Raysyedrocks]

Just loved the TL;DR start. awesome innovation right there!!!

[JumboCinema]

[Z3J1]

[runescapeclassicable]

bro how about what to eat after workout and in breakfast( to boost metabolsim fast) and before and after cardio wrokout food ?? !!! thx (:

[PsyUpGoaTrance]

GIVE ME MORE ADVISESSS NOOOWWWWW



[MatthewsJE]

great informational vids as per usal Evilcyber! however it is still important to have a good source of protein with your carb meals in the morning, this is because your muscles are always recovering. for example if you do a chest workout on Monday, u dont just stop having protein Tuesday morning, your chest will need more protein Tuesday morning. and this continues! ur correct in saying that once your workout is over you no longer need carbohydrates for recovery, just rest, protein and amino's!

[Evilcyber]

@MatthewsJE Great comment, Matthew!

[soshib0y]

another nice video! thanks man! keep it up!

[VDENORM]

Thank you Mister for that video. Danke

[Evilcyber]

BTW, just wanted to say thanks to everyone leaving great comments and voting my videos up! This one got into a bunch of YouTube's top list and you guys make it all happen! Thanks, guys!

[WinterFrostyFreezy]

Do you have any suggestions on what workouts to get a 6 pack in a month?

[Evilcyber]

@WinterFrostyFreezy To accomplish that in a month, you would have to be rather fit already.

[DerDrummerDave]

@WinterFrostyFreezy .... If scooby read that he probably would ram you in the ground :D

perhaps evil will give you a wigging too

[titans091052]

@WinterFrostyFreezy Six pack in a month? There are operations where they rearange the fat in your stomach to give the illusion of a six pack. If it only took a month to get a six pack almost everyone would have one :/

[WinterFrostyFreezy]

@titans091052 first of all, im not a fucken fat ass.. im skinny and i already have the shape of the 6 pack (kinda) and i asked a few people at my gym ( 10 people) and they said yeah, i can get one in about a month.

[titans091052]

@WinterFrostyFreezy Woah, buddy. Settle down. If you're really close already you might be able to pull it off. Just don't be upset if in a month you don't have a ripped stomach.

[WinterFrostyFreezy]

@titans091052 lol my bad... and lol, i know.. the thing is im always tired from a lack of iron, so then that makes me too lazy to do anything. so im like blaah.. :P. but do you know any good workouts to do for it?

[titans091052]

@WinterFrostyFreezy No worries, bud. Gotta just push through the tirdness. Put on some rockin music and try to get yourself pumped. I've been doing various ab exercises like weighted crunches where I fail between 8-12 reps. I don't mean to be cocky but I have some pretty sweet abs. I think most of the "killer ab workouts" where they have you do some 3-6 minute burn session are junk. Just work them like you would any other muscle.

[WinterFrostyFreezy]

@titans091052 well, im new to working out... so idk what to do.. can you help? and its good to brag if you worked hard for em

[Evilcyber]

@WinterFrostyFreezy Heah Frosty, as titans said: Work them like any other muscle. And don't forget the rest of your body. Check my site under Guides > For Beginners > Teen Home Beginner Workout for a workout plan that should work for you.

[WinterFrostyFreezy]

@Evilcyber thanks (:

[titans091052]

@WinterFrostyFreezy Haha! thanks. Yeah, Evilcybers site has some good workout plans if you want to start there. Feel free to send me a message here though if you have any questions, or want any more suggestions and I'll be more than happy to help you as much as I can.

[Evilcyber]

@titans091052 Heah titans, man, thanks for helping people out and giving them great advice!

[titans091052]

@Evilcyber Hey, I'm not the one with a freequently updated website and Youtube channel. I'm just tacking on little tid-bits to your creations.

[ozby555]

great video mate...:)...

[Evilcyber]

@ozby555 Thanks, ozby! :)

[sangsomlipo]

Would have been good if you could mention specific foods containing a good source of carbs.

[Evilcyber]

@sangsomlipo Uhm, I did: a banana, some other fruits or a granola bar.

[sangsomlipo]

@Evilcyber Sorry my bad. My ears must have went to sleep momentarily. Keep it up!

[GutiProducer]

awesome video man, thanks for sharing.

I always grab an apple or two before going to the gym and i can say that it really boosts my performance a lot.

[Evilcyber]

@GutiProducer Yup, same for me!

[dezard36]

Hey Evilcyber , please fix the picture uploading on the forum.

[Evilcyber]

@dezard36 I'm no longer active on the forum; S. wanted to do everything himself.

[Evilcyber]

@ftwatheist Gee, you make me blush! ;)

[Simonjones1991]

Evil you look like a gangster with that goatee, excellent haha.

[elantra11]

I want to ask a question - doing cardio on empty stomach really helps to lose weight (fat) or it's a myth ?

[Evilcyber]

@elantra11 I actually talked about exactly that in a video, check it out: watch?v=sLRGt-Yijfs

[JimboJ1981]

More good sensible advice, thanks again.

[Evilcyber]

@JimboJ1981 Thanks, Jimbo!

[Kixat]

i always learned to take my protein shake b4 my workout, because it takes around 90 minutes before the proteines are being used. So they kick in directly after my training. So you are saying this is wrong or? Please answer,  great overall video btw, was looking for info on pre-workout food :)

[Evilcyber]

@Kixat A post-workout nutrition video will follow, but from the research I read, whey protein post-workout is more beneficial than before.

[Fiisherdan]

Thanks! I know this could be a little irrelevant. But what about carbs AFTER working out? I've heard things about insulin spikes. : /

[Evilcyber]

@Fiisherdan Don't worry too much about insulin. A video on post-workout nutrition will follow, but in general, some carbs after your workout certainly won't hurt (because quite a bit have been used during the workout). Yet I would put the emphasis on whey protein.

[WarGuardia]

rock 'n roll evil!

[Evilcyber]

@WarGuardia Yeah, baby! :D

[im4everbest]

your body also uses protein for energy, thats why it has calories

[xenonnati]

@im4everbest

Protein is only used as energy if the other two are completely depleted. for your body to use protein as energy you have to be literally starving to death.

this is a part of the "burning muscle with cardio" myth

[im4everbest]

@xenonnati yes i know that, im just pointing out that he didnt say it, your body also burns muscle when you dont eat for a long time, thats why you lose muscle mass

[xenonnati]

@im4everbest

well your body burns the muscle mass when it doesn't have an alternative .. but your body will also get rid of what it deems "excess" muscle mass .. after you stop working out for a good while..

[im4everbest]

@xenonnati your body will burn muscle when you dont eat for a long time, instead of fat, thats why fasting doesnt work if you do it for a long time

[xenonnati]

@im4everbest

amm okay..

... if fat is available .. your body will burn that .. people who died of starvation demonstrated 0 or near 0% bodyfat. .. if carbs and fat is depleted then proteins will be broken down for energy.. but this is a last ditch attempt .. and no if your not starving and you still have enough fat on you then it won't happen to a noticeable degree ..

[im4everbest]

@xenonnati well by that logic everyone should not eat until they have low fat percentage

[Evilcyber]

@im4everbest As Xen hinted, your body will only cannibalize muscle mass in absolutely dire need, as for example during prolonged starvation. See it like this: Back when we were hunters, only those survived that were able to still hunt after days or even weeks without a lot of or even no food.

[antlp89]

Great info Evil! I always get quality information from your videos. =)

[Evilcyber]

@antlp89 Great to hear, ant! :)

[htxgarza]

Good advice, keep making videos please.

[Evilcyber]

@htxgarza Thanks man, I will try to! :)

[osiris850531]

nice vid. ever after i had started to eat a banana before workout i have had a feeling i could exercise better =)

also, are you planning on making a video about post-workout meal(s)? (if you already did, sorry - i haven't seen all of your vids yet) i usually follow routine 30g glucose immediately after workout, after 30mins whey protein and after next 30mins or so i eat normal food (chicken with salad usually, or tuna with salad etc). good/bad?

[Evilcyber]

@osiris850531 Yep, a post-workout nutrition video will follow at some point. And what you do is perfectly ok; some carbs and whey protein are the way to go.

[58jtaylor]

Also, what are your thought's on the Paleo diet. Essentialy I'm asking; do you think dairy and grains are bad for human consumption? w w w dot ncbi dot gov/pubmed/19209185

[Evilcyber]

@58jtaylor I could write a book about my thoughts on the paleo diet. Generally, the paleolithic is a veeeery long time span and whatever people who write those diets propose as the typical paleolithic nutrition is just supposition.

[58jtaylor]

Hey Evil, Good video once again. Your looking pretty trendy nowadays, looks good bro, keep it up.

[Evilcyber]

@58jtaylor You mean there was a time when I didn't look trendy? ;P

[58jtaylor]

@Evilcyber Lol Sorry man, you were always trendy, you look even more trendy now ;)

[steveteaches]

yay there's a description this time

[Evilcyber]

@steveteaches This was the second try uploading. The first time I saved the description during the upload and exactly what I feared happened: the freaking upload failed :D

[ShesMyMedicine]

Thanks for providing all this information for everyone :) It's been very helpful to me

[TheBullterrier]

Love your vids, man.

[FoxMedina]

hi evil!

[Evilcyber]

@FoxMedina Hi Fox! :)

[FTW0FTW]

@FoxMedina I can't let you do that starfox

[ryd4st]

your vids are so good, i like them before i even watch them!

[Evilcyber]

@ryd4st Well, I hope you also like them *after* you watched them ;)

[GsxRaider]

@Evilcyber after lifting weights,one should eat protein after,in cardio,do we also need to eat protein after cardio?running/cycling. or simple vegetable and rice is enough?

[artisan09]

so when your trying to lose weight by excercising, which should you burn more to get rid of body fat?
