LisaSF 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2015 I am reinventing my love for running. It's been so long for me! I have completed 2 marathons in my past but I was way younger! Though I'm only running a 5K and I'm on week 8, its amazing the difference when you plan your nutrition correctly! If I only knew then what I know now.... I feel better with my runs than when I was running in my 20s!!! This app has been great motivation. What are your before and after nutrition tips?

Guest TrishE Report post Posted March 19, 2015 Good carbs before and after I try to get as much protein as possible. You gotta support those muscles. I have apple slices and almond butter to dip them in which gives me a lot of energy and after I eat some kind grilled chicken or tuna or if I cant get those greek yogurt or a protein shake. Watch out for sugar though, try to stay in the single digits if you eat yogurt or the protein bars and shakes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corwinkb 1 Report post Posted July 15, 2015 Before a run i eat a banana with a tiny bit of peanut butter spread down the length. After words I eat a balanced mini meal. A club sandwich with no mayo and a fruit salad if I run near lunch. I also eat extra cause usually after a run I jump in the pool and do breast strokes until my body heat comes down and my arms feel tired. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wishlake 1 Report post Posted August 5, 2015 I am most concerned on what I follow my run with--a very healthy protein shake--no additives, preservatives, sweeteners, non-gmo, pre and probiotics. It's the best post workout fuel. Before runs I may have a shake also, but with just short runs I'm more concerned with hydration. Maybe I will have an electrolyte replacement drink full of vitamins, minerals. Not Gatorade! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jorge Gonzales 7 Report post Posted June 4, 2016 I am a bigg fitnes lover and I would love to eat nutrition foods and after taking Xtreme NO for approximately 3 months, I noticed a significant amount of lean muscle gain when compared to a placebo. The biggest difference was in my size gains, allowing me to gain inches both in our arms, legs, and chest.What was even better was the increase in energy I felt after taking it for so long. My workouts had become that much more effective, and I was not getting as tired in the gym. I also had lost about 10 pounds of fat, making me shredded beyond what I ever imagined. There was also the added benefit of increasing my sex drive, which apparently is a by product of Nitric Oxide production. In fact I was so happy with my results, that I ended up purchasing another 6 months supply of XtremeNo supplements . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
