PAUL CHEK ON THE POST-WORKOUT MEAL MYTH: Protein? Carbs?

A question was posed regarding post-workout meals and how much protein their-in. It's a very common myth that you need to ingest a large slug of protein immediately after a meal, as if that protein goes straight to the freshly damaged muscles, yet, this is not at all how the body works. What is most important are the glycogen stores which need replenishment, otherwise, catabolism / gluconeogenisis become a post-post-workout at the cellular level.

Who wears short shorts? People who are not embarrassed about their fit looking legs.

Yeah, but he isn't funded or sponsored by a huge billion dollar company.

@bankypunk Look into health and performance, over un-natural body-shapes. Body builders and trainers might have 'ideal' bodies, but that is just an image that has been promoted by popular media. Look at native peoples and people who do MovNat and CrossFit. Their health, endurance, quality of life and happiness would crush that of people who only want large muscles for shallow and insecure reasons.

Enjoy

@bankypunk strong logic

[bankypunk]

Lets see. I have 2 groups telling me different things. One on hand I have bodybuilders, and personal trainers who look great telling me to take a post workout shake, and then on the other side there are shapeless, unfit-looking people like this guy telling me not to.

HMMMMMM WHO SHOULD I BELIEVE HMMMMMM

@MormonManUtah Why did the chicken cross the road? I don't know but if you don't laugh I'm going to squish your head like a walnut!

We aren't Chimpanzee's. Nice bro-science though.

This video is the same as what everyone says, eat after a workout, real meat > protein powder, eat carbs post workout.

[thepossessor]

well society is basically designed to keep us lazy, docile and stupid. I mean why do anything when you have a t.v, x box, playstation i-phone......

[dodzy6]

So you want fast delivery of carbs and aminos to the muscles, and yet you tell us to include fats too, which slows digestion, nice.

@MormanManUtah Chimps have a different genetic disposition than humans, not to mention they swing around in trees instead of sitting around all day like humans.

[MormonManUtah]

We need to humble ourselves and look at the Chimpanzee lifestyle to find optimum health. They eat fruits, seeds, bugs and forage all day in a relaxed frame of mind. They don't body build however a small chimpanzee could squish a puffy body builder like a walnut. Pound for pound chimpanzees have denser muscle and utilize more muscle fibers. Much has to do with their lifestyle not just diet. By walking slower, eating slower, working out more meditative focus on digestion we can be like them.

@jreily88 McDonald's is a billion dollar company along with the people treating the illnesses incurred and pharmaceuticals. I would rather see someone get rich by helping people. People make money on helping or hurting. Also consider how much valuable information he shares for free on youtube. Paul Chek is on our side.
