I am about to embark on the part of my journey to drop my Bgl to the next level. In three months was able to get down to 6.2 and I lost 6kgs. Currently I am pre diabetic.
Here’s my dilemma....
in order to do strength training apparently I need carbs about 30 mins prior to starting as without them I won’t be able to train successfully.
If I am doing cardio, the body can burn fat, but I’m told that with strength training not so as the muscles have to have carbs to do their job efficiently when working out.
My eating plan is usually OMAD and sometimes TMAD.
If anyone is successfully do strength and toning, I would love some feedback. The protein requirements of 1g of protein per pound of body weight seems excessive. That would mean I would need to have 143g protein daily ! Is this right or have I misunderstood something.
I have booked in for three personal training sessions a week focussing on strength and toning.
What would be an acceptable snack before training?
Thanks in advance.
