Um A a and where we want to get with all these things in general . The way that we like to think about this is if you're doing a strength type of work where you're truly targeting that , then a 1 to 1 post exercise protein to carbohydrate ratio is generally what we're gonna go after . So this would be something like 35 g of protein and 35 g of carbohydrate .
So 1 to 1 is that like sort of standard number here . Um If you're gonna do sort of more of a really hard conditioning workout , that number slides up to something like three or even 4 to 1 , which would be carbohydrate to protein ratio . So , if we wanna stay at 35 g of protein , we're gonna go maybe as high as like 100 or 100 and 40 g of carbohydrate .
Um If you're gonna do sort of more of a really hard conditioning workout , that number slides up to something like three or even 4 to 1 , which would be carbohydrate to protein ratio . So , if we wanna stay at 35 g of protein , we're gonna go maybe as high as like 100 or 100 and 40 g of carbohydrate . Again , depending on what type of , of training we're sort of doing .
They're just going to be better spreading those meals out generally throughout the day and they're going to be better if they have those nutrients either pre mid or post . And so they're going to get even for hypertrophy , they're gonna get something like that 13 to 1 ratio of carbs or protein , personal preference . Some people don't like to eat before they train .
So depending on which or you're listening at to this , uh at one of those may be easier than the other for you . Um If you start getting below that number , now you do start running into questions of protein quality , protein type and protein timing . This is one of the reasons why I actually fully agree with .
