Studies have shown that BCAAs before and after exercising have beneficial effects on decreasing the muscle damage and promote protein synthesis

@johnnypalermo1806 fasting after gym?

[l337dan]

Men, do not train fasted.

I trained 12 weeks fasted, often supplementing with a pre-workout (due to low energy levels), and I guarantee you will lose muscle (if training without the use of anabolic steroids). Though you will lose fat, you will not gain much muscle in the process if your aim is to make lean gains.

The best thing is to train for maximum hypertrophy of the muscle with a reduced carb + calorie diet.

[BoxingBadBoy77]

@l337dan you're suggesting that to build muscle you need to have a reduced carb and calorie diet?!You do realise that to make put weight on whether it be fat on lean muscle mass that you need to have a calorie surplus right?

[l337dan]

@BoxingBadBoy77 Sorry, I was just talking about training in a fasted state in general.

[0680496]

Hey Matt are you planning on uploading some training vids of yours? would be nice

[mattyfusaro]

@trinishipp thats perfect!

[DeBoyErt]

I know but i thought 1 ricecake isn't that bad

[DeBoyErt]

I eat this with a table spoon pindabutter as my night snack before i'm going to sleep. Is that any good?

[loldudeno]

@DeBoyErt Try to cut out carbs a few hours before bed

[dgwear69]

@loldudeno 24hour calorie balance > meal frequency

[loldudeno]

@dgwear69 You can still have calories at night and low carb meals like nuts, and cottege cheese. But the only reason i said try to cut carbs at night is because your metabolism slows down at night and if you eat carbs right before bed you can store more fat.

[mattyfusaro]

@DeBoyErt thats fine!

[sa56075]

A lot of people are probly going to say that you losing mucsel training fasted, but they forget their glyclogen stores. I eat my preworkout meal 10 hours befor my workout witch is on a emthy stomac in the morning..

[mattyfusaro]

@sa56075 let people say whatever they want! hahah

[FitnessAngelo]

[mattyfusaro]

@RiseToFitness nice!!

[DubSp805]

Man I love your videos!!

[mattyfusaro]

@DubSp805 thank you sir!

[Timberlinetown]

I really do enjoy your no nonsense, to the point video's!! I do have a question on Whey Protein Powder. Is it okay to have an 8oz. shake of Whey Protein in the early morning just to get the protein even if you aren't working out until later in the afternoon?? Thanks Matty!!

[mattyfusaro]

@Timberlinetown Absolutely! WHey protein is actually a food source in powder form. There is nothing really special about it - mostly it is used as a "supplement" to add into your diet if you are not getting enough protein through food. It is not 100% necessary nor is there anything wrong with it! Enjoy!
