Read the latest nutrition article in the CrossFit Journal written by E.C. Synkowski. She digs deeper into the breakdown of carbs so you can make better decisions about which ones you eat, when you eat them and why one type over another. She also echoes a point that we’ve made in past posts stating that “post-workout nutrition is low priority for the recreational CrossFit athlete working out once a day. For this type of athlete, the potential gains from post-workout nutrition are easily surpassed by greater attention to the workout itself and nutrition throughout the day.” Give it a read and post your thoughts to comments.
