  • The last few nutrition papers I read (Your sleeveless you must read nutrition papers. Dem the rules) have mentioned Blueberrys. One was regarding stocking up on anti oxidants pre training, as a way of reducing the Level of damage caused. The other was regarding certian flavonoides that helped prevent weight gain. Maybe its a Nordic thing. But I've been trying to eat a decent amount every day.

    The unfermented beer stuff I binge on is pretty calorific. Loads of B-vits. So OK if coming off a big work out. But I cut it out during periods of less Activity.

  • anti oxidants

    Have a look at the research which shows antioxidants as hampering performance by reducing the body's response to a training load. Basically making recovery easier means body doesn't adapt quite as much to deal with the training load or something like that.

  • Theres always someone ready to piss on Your cornflakes.......

    Does this mean the way I used to drink a ton a beer, eat a few kebabs, sleep for 3 hours, then play rugby. Was actually giving my body optimal adaptation?
