But Steve, if you eat before a workout wont that spike your insulin levels and reduce the amount of growth hormone you produce during the workout thereby decreasing your gains?
cleary you dont know what your talking about.i hope people dont follow your advice! 'it doesnt matter if you eat or not eat before exercising' how does that make sense?? yeah if you wana pass out because you exercising on a emty stomuch,your body needs food to givr you energy to burn it off,its basics!!!
am i the only one that thinks it's hilarious he still says "love your body" after explaining how he ripped his elbow off training? haha love the videos steve.
How accurate are online body fat calculators? because I used one yesterday and it says my BF was 18% i'm not sure if I believe it. I'm 19, male, 6ft tall, 34inch waist and 175lbs, i'm skinny enough to see my ribs and feel my spine so I think 18% BF is a little inaccurate.
@BodyPerformanceTV yeah, finding clothes when you're a mesomorph is interesting... I've a 18" neck, 50" chest and a 34" waist ... all the shirts I find need tailoring... I've got 27.5" quads... so even some 'relaxed-fit' pants are tight... I tend to buy 36" pants and wear a belt... :)
... only a 29" waist? I'm assuming you're not 6'3" like I am, LOL. I'd be a corpse in order to be smaller than about 33"...
@MAKEaCRAWLER Weight training is to build muscle. If you are using it as a form of cardio to try to burn fat, then you are mistaken. The amount of calories burned weight training, or even doing cardio, is too little to make the sort of difference you are talking about. Check you facts. Note well, I am not attacking you, so don't get on your high horse. Just check it out.
@cmk1964 Having muscle helps you burn fat,because the more muscle you have on your body the faster your metabolic rate is. Even Steve mentions this all the time.
The shortest videos, but packed full of the best tips. There is just so much misinformation circulating, that it is wonderful to hear someone saying it as it really is. No BS, just facts. Thanks a lot steve.
BULL SHIT!!!!! This guy gives terrible advice. If you eat too close to the time before you workout, you'll vomit during the workout. I'd say don't eat more than your fist size at least 5-10 hours before you workout. this should allow plenty of time for the food to move from the stomach and into the lower intestines. This advice would be for hardcore interval training that usually lasts about an hour.
I'm calling bullshit on your post. For HIIT, you would want liquid protein and liquid carbs 20-60 minutes prior. Going more than 5 hours without food is silly if you must force yourself to do so
What's your opinion on meal frequency regarding metabolism; eg: they say if you eat 6 meals a day you will burn more calories then if you were eating 3 meals a day. Does this have any affect on weight loss/weight gain?

Hi ya thank you for all your weight training wisdom, I'm 250 pounds 5 foot 10 at the mo and need to bring this down to human levels, I do a relativley physical/aerobic (window washing) job. I have trained in the past and can still see a muscular frame under my mass, basically I'm not just 250pound blob. Do I focus on running or weight training?My Body loves to build muscle, not run,so I bike or row. Do I go with what comes natural 45min aerobic followed by 1 hour weights? Thanks

@BodyPerformanceTV "If you wondering why I'm on a hospital bed with no limbs and only half my torso, I was shot to pieces by a .50 cal machine gun before being blown up by C4, then fed to Alligators, got digested, turned into a newt by a Magician and somewhere along the line got raped by 20 men simultaneously, but yeah, I won't be able to work out my biceps again until next week" lol.
By the way, If you don't mind me asking, what is your Max Bench? Just curious
Though I want to be pretty huge, I'd rather do it the slow way and have the strength to go with it rather than the quick way and weigh 230lbs but have a max bench of 150lbs like alot of people do.
I've seen bigger guys lose arm wrestles to smaller guys in front of crowds and its as embaressing for them as being a clown which has fallen off a unicycle on a high rope, plummeted to an undignified death in costume all mangled in front of a laughing crowd.
@johnosandra lol, we're not particularly liked, we're absolutely hated by just about every country in the world, but no1 hates a brit more than another brit lol.
I do agree with you though that theres no place for 'tough guys' in this day in age though, like, in WW1, everyone was forced into the trenches and had to charge against machine gun nests and everything and if they refused they were shot, or when people had to stand in lines reloading a musket while being shot at from 20ft away.
@johnosandra its a shame that the countries gone so down hill since though :(, they should have never done away with national service where everyone had to serve in the forces for 2 years at the age of 16, and as a result the countries softened up and now, if we were invaded, everyone would be too busy moaning if the councils gonna collect there bins on time lol.
Im currently trying to get in the parachute regiment, need to run 1.5 miles in under 9 minutes though.
well i understand the biology of the human body is really really complicated and there are soooooooooooo many factors that take place in weight-loss. I often wondered about if it was better to eat before exercising or after and I think you might be right in that all that matters is if you expend the energy you take in.

first of all, so sorry to hear about your arm man. hope it's gets better soon if it hasnt yet already. Secondly, doesnt your facts about it doesnt matter when you eat totally contradict everything i've ever been told from books or personal trainers? Unless you are strictly talking about just loosing weight and not building muscle. If not, you are saying that your meals timely before and after lifting arent important. Why are U the only one saying this? And i know you host the radio show :)
@BodyPerformanceTV Well, I never said anything about bodybuilders and supplement sellers, but what you are saying is that every person that i have ever met in my life that has stepped foot in a gym, including the ones that are in amazing shape (naturally, no juice) are ALL giving misleading advice on a builders diet. I'm not gonna lie, you've got my head spinning on this one. It just doesnt sound logical, lol. NO OFFENSE please. I know you're the expert here.

when you tore the tricep do you think it could have been avoided? I realise that you must push heavy weights but was there something you wish you had or not done. Maybe pushing big weights isnt always a good idea?

Hi Steve, i keep hearing that you should eat 15 to 30 minutes after you workout, or 80% of your workout is put to waste. Is there a specific time range when you should eat? Does it really matter when you eat after your workout or is it just the workout that counts?........thanks.
@LOYALTOTHEGAME2 That's an old wives tale. Taking in glucose is the most important thing after a workout. Therefore having a glass of Gatorade would be the best. That's what I do. Then I just have a normal dinner.
man im 19 years old living in pakistan and i have to say....the advice you give is far more useful then what my trainers tell me.....keep up the good work :D

I usually do cardio workouts when i wake up since i havent had anything to eat the body gets the energy from the stored fat which i believe it burns fat faster.

i've heard that if you wake up in the morning and workout without consuming anything, your body will use your muscles as a source of energy instead of your fats. Fat is only burnt when you're facing starvation, but not exercising. is that true?
So it does not make a difference if lets say if I am trying gain muscle mass and I eat 6 meals. I try to eat 5 meals before I workout so I would use all the energy from these 5 meals to help me lift more. Is that possible, because I want to workout before 4 meals but always think I am not going to have enough energy for heavy weights. So is it true if you eat more meals before a workout then you will have more strength than you would eat less meals?

@shlucke Cracked Got hit in the elbow with a piece of baboo while during jujutsu. That cracked the elbow but I didn't know it. Then the elbow ripped off when I was lifting. Check out my buddies You Tube videos Jujutsu 101.
I have maybe a dumb question, I did wonder about the act of eating during a workout, something small of course like nuts, or trail mix. Question is, would snacking during a workout possibly keep the energy level higher than it would as you continue the training?
@dunivanh Good question. It probably would only really be beneficial during aerobic activity since carbs are needed to help burn fat while exercising.
@BodyPerformanceTV i consider circuit training to be an aerobic exercise, i consume a good amount of carbs and basic glucose before and sometimes during. But then again I only workout 30 minutes so no long lasting carb would be beneficial during my workout if I ate it during the exercise
umm ,excuse me sir i have searched in most of ur videos about how to start bodybuilding , do i need to lose weight and should i start with warming training and what these trainings are , if u can show me the link of that video i wll be thxful.
I agree with a large number of your videos however this one i would disagree with i'm afraid. I think you have targeted this video for someone looking for weight loss, if this is the case then i will almost agree with you however when training my swimmers and PT clients if they are not taking the correct nutrition in before or after sessions i'd love for you to come and see the effects of this after training. It would be interesting to know was this for weight loss or all clients?
@SouthWestPT I have NEVER said good nutrition is not important or will not improve performance or recovery for the elite athlete!!! For AVERAGE people doing AVERAGE training it's not that critical. Good nutrtion is important and make weight loss easier BUT it's not CRITICAL for weight loss.
cleared up a lot for me, i could never decide when to eat, i hate working out on an empty stomach, because i feel tired when i'm at the gym, i don't like working out on a full stomach because i feel bloated.should i just eat smaller portions before a workout? get better soon
Running on a full or empty stomach causes cramps.. If you dont wanna cramp, eat an hour and a half before you run and drink water 30 minutes before you run so your not on a full or empty stomach. You will notice that you will not cramp as much.

i prefer to eat something 30mins pre workout or or even have a protein shake just so i have that extra energy in the gym working out on a empty stomach for me leaves me running out of energy too soon hence not getting a full intense workout
@iceicebuddha Got hit in the elbow with a piece of baboo while during jujutsu. That cracked the elbow but I didn't know it. Then the elbow ripped off when I was lifting.
i like your videos!!! i think i just hit my plateau stage how can i overcome this i'm not gaining any more muscle..i've heard of changing the workout but i dont get it..you have to do bench presses;tricep head crushers and so on....how can u change to overcome the plateau effect..Thxs!!!

I dislocated my right shoulder just over 5 months ago and I was wondering if it's been long enough to heal. I trained regularly before the dislocation and received proper physio up until the insurance stopped covering it. I have been doing the excerises with the band since then and still not completely sure if it's good. What is your opinion?
"Weight lifting is a ballistic, or explosive movement...", "...it's an explosive movement. It's aggressive...". All respect, but I'll bet your elbow/tricep would argue with you about rep speed now.
LOL! Hardly. Got hit in the elbow with a piece of baboo while during jujutsu. That cracked the elbow but I didn't know it. Then the elbow ripped off when I was lifting. But I aprreciate your asshole comment.

No. Got hit in the elbow with a piece of baboo while during jujutsu. That cracked the elbow but I didn't know it. Then the elbow ripped off when I was lifting. 1. Did the dislocation causes any tears? 2. Was an x-ray or MRI taken? 3. When you return to lifting TEST the shoulder by using machines instead of free weights (safer) especially for pressing movements and limit your range of motion until the joint & muscle become stronger.

i agree with raybee. pre and post workout nutrition is key to building muscle. especially post workout. that is when your muscles are in a catabolic state and require glycogen and protein replacement. ask any pro bodybuilder.

by the tnx really for your videos but i have one question im quite confuse how come many are saying you cant lose fat and build muscle at the same time while you sir claims you can. I dont know which to believe then. Hope youl reply Tnx a lot
You CAN put on muscle while losing fat. I do it all the time. The reason most don't think you can is because most do not know how to do it. It requires that you keep very good records of your daily eating pattern and weight and waist measurements. It requires that you keep your daily caloric deficits at 400 or less calories. I know of VERY FEW lifters who track their activity like that. Since they don't, they cannot successfully put on muscle while losing fat.
Never ever eat within 30mins of a workout!!!! When you have a meal, the food will travel through your intestines and stomach and your body will allocate more blood to the intestines etc so that the various minerals, amino acids etc etc will be absorbed into the body. If you have a substantial meal straight before a workout, you run the risk of blacking out!
To bulk up, eat a small high protein meal (20-40g of protein) i.e tuna sandwich, no less then and no more then an hour before a workout.
GOODNIGHT!!! You ripped off your elbow?!! I enjoy your videos,very informative,thank you Steve. With all due respect though, I find part of this video somewhat comical. After telling us that you just ripped off your elbow you still ended with "love your body"! I was thinking this time you were going to end it by saying,"try not to loose a limb"! I tease with kindness. I hope you've made a full recovery. Thanks again Steve, for your time and availability to give out this good info. chad
we DO need lots of proteins , after 1 work out , i make sure to eat enough protenine full stuff .. ít helps recover the mussels very fast , maybe you should do that 2 . then your tricep recovers faster :P:P hahaha

I do agree with you though that theres no place for 'tough guys' in this day in age though, like, in WW1, everyone was forced into the trenches and had to charge against machine gun nests and everything and if they refused they were shot, or when people had to stand in lines reloading a musket while being shot at from 20ft away.

well i understand the biology of the human body is really really complicated and there are soooooooooooo many factors that take place in weight-loss. I often wondered about if it was better to eat before exercising or after and I think you might be right in that all that matters is if you expend the energy you take in.

It does make a difference... if you are trying to build muscle by gym training, you should eat after your session.

first of all, so sorry to hear about your arm man. hope it's gets better soon if it hasnt yet already. Secondly, doesnt your facts about it doesnt matter when you eat totally contradict everything i've ever been told from books or personal trainers? Unless you are strictly talking about just loosing weight and not building muscle. If not, you are saying that your meals timely before and after lifting arent important. Why are U the only one saying this? And i know you host the radio show :)

Hi Steve, i keep hearing that you should eat 15 to 30 minutes after you workout, or 80% of your workout is put to waste. Is there a specific time range when you should eat? Does it really matter when you eat after your workout or is it just the workout that counts?........thanks.
LOYALTOTHEGAME2 1 year ago
@LOYALTOTHEGAME2 That's an old wives tale. Taking in glucose is the most important thing after a workout. Therefore having a glass of Gatorade would be the best. That's what I do. Then I just have a normal dinner.

i've heard that if you wake up in the morning and workout without consuming anything, your body will use your muscles as a source of energy instead of your fats. Fat is only burnt when you're facing starvation, but not exercising. is that true?

How does it not matter steve?
So it does not make a difference if lets say if I am trying gain muscle mass and I eat 6 meals. I try to eat 5 meals before I workout so I would use all the energy from these 5 meals to help me lift more. Is that possible, because I want to workout before 4 meals but always think I am not going to have enough energy for heavy weights. So is it true if you eat more meals before a workout then you will have more strength than you would eat less meals?

I have maybe a dumb question, I did wonder about the act of eating during a workout, something small of course like nuts, or trail mix. Question is, would snacking during a workout possibly keep the energy level higher than it would as you continue the training?
dunivanh 1 year ago
@dunivanh Good question. It probably would only really be beneficial during aerobic activity since carbs are needed to help burn fat while exercising.
BodyPerformanceTV 1 year ago
@BodyPerformanceTV i consider circuit training to be an aerobic exercise, i consume a good amount of carbs and basic glucose before and sometimes during. But then again I only workout 30 minutes so no long lasting carb would be beneficial during my workout if I ate it during the exercise

I agree with a large number of your videos however this one i would disagree with i'm afraid.

It would be interesting to know was this for weight loss or all clients?

Running on a full or empty stomach causes cramps.. If you dont wanna cramp, eat an hour and a half before you run and drink water 30 minutes before you run so your not on a full or empty stomach. You will notice that you will not cramp as much.

Is that a dislocation you have?
I dislocated my right shoulder just over 5 months ago and I was wondering if it's been long enough to heal. I trained regularly before the dislocation and received proper physio up until the insurance stopped covering it.

No. Got hit in the elbow with a piece of baboo while during jujutsu. That cracked the elbow but I didn't know it. Then the elbow ripped off when I was lifting. 1. Did the dislocation causes any tears? 2. Was an x-ray or MRI taken? 3. When you return to lifting TEST the shoulder by using machines instead of free weights (safer) especially for pressing movements and limit your range of motion until the joint & muscle become stronger.

samathalev 2 years ago
You CAN put on muscle while losing fat. I do it all the time. The reason most don't think you can is because most do not know how to do it. It requires that you keep very good records of your daily eating pattern and weight and waist measurements. It requires that you keep your daily caloric deficits at 400 or less calories. I know of VERY FEW lifters who track their activity like that. Since they don't, they cannot successfully put on muscle while losing fat.
brushfour 2 years ago
Never ever eat within 30mins of a workout!!!! When you have a meal, the food will travel through your intestines and stomach and your body will allocate more blood to the intestines etc so that the various minerals, amino acids etc etc will be absorbed into the body. If you have a substantial meal straight before a workout, you run the risk of blacking out!
To bulk up, eat a small high protein meal (20-40g of protein) i.e tuna sandwich, no less then and no more then an hour before a workout.
