4 Reasons You Must Have Post Workout Drink After Training
1. Catabolism -Body is in catabolism and need carbs so that you are not burning the muscle protein that you just spent time building
2. Glycogen — Body needs to restore the glycogen stores burnt during your training or workout session. Body uses glycogen as energy and when that is gone, it turns to fat as it’s source of energy and starts burn FAT, which is Good. If you do not restore your glycogen (through simple carbs) then your body will immediately stop burning fat, hold on to it and start to burn your muscles instead
3. Protein –Your body and muscles need to be fed protein for recovery and muscle repair
4. Insulin — You need to spike Insulin (through simple carbs) to help transfer the protein to the muscles quickly and efficiently

The POWER OF FUNK!!!!!
you can feel the nutrients going through your body eh? wow….you must have some special powers!
Happy I stumbled upon this clip. Love Youtube for this sort of stuff.My nephew had been bullied. He explained he was going to get bigger muscle mass. I laughed at him because I didn't believe him…. Right up until out of the blue he added 40 pounds of pure muscle. He used the Muscle Building Bible – Google it. He does not get bullied these days. 🙂
I personally registered a few days ago. Plus the guys emails are interesting…
It would be a shame for you not to shed pounds when other people are able to burn fat easily with Fat Blast Factor (go google it).
Funk. U said 3 to 1 carbs to protein is that the same for thinner blokes such as myself?
If you want to bulk up, you should Google "Rapid Muscle Booster". That might help you get the body you deserve.
Awsme post shake man… Btw Funk wt r ur Top 3 Suppliments Plz? 🙂
You get your carbs in your fruit and bananas. I just drink a protein drink ( 2 cups, chocolate) and eat a banana. And that's fine.
Thanks Funk … men u the best love your workouts , today im going to begin the spartacus challange … ill send u the before and after pics when im done … went to the grocery store and buyed all the healthy food that u indicate at ur meal plan …..sorry if my english is bad ! im from Dominican Republic .. D.R
Hey Emily…lose the chocolate until you get to where you want to go, especially every night. That is waaaaaaay too much! it's killing you – LOL
You have to have clean, healthy nutrition in order to lean up. you cannot out train a bad diet, no matter how many funk workouts you do…head over to fenvsfunk program for women in the info section and use that nutrition plan, laid out for you
Thanks
Thanks man
Glutamine is great especially in a post workout smoothie – Glutamine one of my Super Seven Supplements
You can use almonds
Hey Samuel, yes you can have a post workout meal instead for sure…make sure you eat some starchy carbs though if you have just finished a Metabolic, HIIT or Combat Training….Brown rice, quinoa, sweet potato for example as well as protein (chicken breast or fish) and lot's of veggies..throw in some healthy fats too. If you want a full meal plan (Done for you) or Do it yourself – pick and choose go to funkflexmmaworkouts website for a complete program with workouts, nutrition and scheduling
Almond Milk is a great substitute for regular milk
can i use milk instead of water?
i can get that suplement … can i have a post workout meal will work ? … please funk HELP
Funk*
Taste great thanks flex
i can't seem to find any almond butter.. what can i substitute it with?
Some people put in post workout drink together with all other put glutamine.
good or bad?is better to put glutamine at the pre-workout drink?
great smoothie!!ill try it!!!
Funk u lookin ripped
Love the FUNK!!
Looks yummy! thanks for the info too I didn't know that about the importance of insulin for muscle building. Hey Funk, do you eat dark chocolate, and if so how often?, bc I eat some almost every night (tho min 60-70% cacao) and I've been doing workouts like yours for more than a year, and have seen great muscle/strength gains, but can not seem to lean up: do you think the chocolate/(really the sugar in it) makes the difference?
What time period after the gym should this be taken? And what's the maximum time
thanks
Hey 712, it's a Cuisinart – received it as a gift for my wedding!
oatmeal is great…sounds you are getting everything you need – protein carbs and try and get a healthy fat as well.
Yes you are correct as well. The only time you really want that insulin spike is directly after you workout at a high intensity…body needs to get that protein into the muscles quick and glycogen replenished…anytime else and you are correct, it a NO NO!
