Hi,
i am confused about what procedure is good. Somewhere i read the
protein+Carb shd be taken within 30mins, elsewhere 120min. and where to
fit in stretching ?

can few of you post your tried and tested procedures ??

here's what i do:

Come in - store the bike.
Stretch - approx 20/30 mins.
Take Shower - approx 10/15 mins [sometimes much later]
Nutrition - Drink Protein/Carb mixture.

i am going by what my mom taught me - do not eat (or drink) before shower.

after the protein/carb mixture, i pretty much do not eat anything (drink
water ofcourse) for about 1 hr.

please comment on my procedure...

thanks,
