Hello my fitness friends. I have decided to eliminate "Just Di" workout posts to separate blog, as it is too much to keep up with, and not sure anyone really cares what kind of workout I do, cause I am sure you have enough to do just keeping up with your own. Also new, DC Fitness is now available for training at the new Snap Fitness on Horton Rd. So come in and see me! The rest of the month special grand opening special is: no enrollment fee ($49) and membership is free the rest of this month! Single membership is 34.95 unlimited, family is 49.95 per month, no contract, 24/7 access, free assessment and personal training packages available. Kettlebell classes coming soon there as well.
Avoid Carbs At Night? Some nutrition experts claim that calorie balance is the only significant factor affecting fat loss and that avoiding carbs at night has no impact. On the other hand, many contend that carbs are the best eaten in the morning (to replenish glycogen stores after a night of sleep), pre workout (as fuel for exercise energy) and post workout (to provide glycogen and to increase insulin levels for stimulating muscle growth).It is consistently recommended avoiding carbs at night-if you're able to replenish your muscle and liver glycogen throughout the day, then the excess you consume in the evenings will be more likely be converted into fat.A study performed by Swiss researchers also concluded that carbs should be avoided in the evening. Subjects who ate a high carbmeal (spaghetti and carrots) two to three hours before bedtime had both higher body temperatures and heart rates than subjects who instead ate a big carb meal in the morning. These physiological factors could interfere with sleep, ultimately having a negative impact on fat burning and muscle growth.Recommendations: Since a good night's sleep is crucial, watch your carb in take at night. Eat your last high-carb meal at least four hours before you go to bed.
