I train after work and was wondering if i'ts OK to eat when I get home around 7.30pm? I want to lose weight but I've been told I shouldn't eat late at night if I want to lose weight. |
| For most people, eating at night is counterproductive to fat loss because their activity level decreases as the evening comes on. If they put in calories at that time their body won't have time to burn those calories and when that happens, the calories will be stored as fat.
Your metabolism slows down over the course of the day. It is highest in the morning and lowest in the evening. But if you work out late at night, your activity level is MUCH higher at that time then the average person. Its imperative that you replenish your muscles after training, no matter what time of day, so you should have a protein shake and a piece of fruit immediately after your training. When you get home, have a high protein meal along with fresh vegetables or salad. |
